New and Recent Flooring Projects

Wayside Inne Log Cabin Gets New Wide Plank Floor

We recently completed a project at the historic Wayside Inne, a log cabin built in the 1940s. The cabin’s original floors needed an update, so we installed a stunning new wide plank floor using wide-plank hardwood. The wide planks add a rustic charm that perfectly complements the cabin’s vintage character. Our expert craftsmanship ensures the floor will stand the test of time while elevating the overall aesthetic of this charming property.

Hand-Scraped Hickory Glue-Down Floor

Another exciting project involved installing a hand-scraped hickory glue-down floor. The unique scraping technique gives the wood a one-of-a-kind, distressed appearance that adds warmth and character to any space. Glue-down floors are a popular choice for use over concrete slabs. We take pride in our attention to detail, ensuring a flawless installation that showcases the natural beauty of the hickory wood.

New Red Oak Floor in Bedroom

We also had the opportunity to add a new red oak floor to a bedroom in an existing home. Red oak is a classic choice known for its strength, durability, and timeless appeal. We carefully matched the new floor to the existing hardwood, creating a seamless transition. The result is a fresh, updated look that enhances the overall aesthetic of the room.

Refinishing Historic 1 1/2″ Red Oak Floor

Finally, we had the pleasure of refinishing an old, very narrow 1 1/2″ red oak floor. Refinishing is a cost-effective way to breathe new life into existing hardwood floors. Our process involves sanding, staining, and sealing the wood to restore its original luster. Despite the floor’s narrow width, our team’s expertise ensured a flawless finish that highlights the natural beauty of the red oak.

Rustic Sawed Plank Re-Claimed Oiled Pine Beauty

We recently re-oiled a beautiful re-claimed 12 inch wide sawed pine plank floor in Conway.   This home was built about 12 years ago and has one of the most unique floors that we’ve seen.   The floor was 2700 Square Feet of re-claimed heart pine planks that had been re-claimed from an old factory that was torn down near St. Louis, Missouri.  The original planks were about 2 inches thick, and they were sawed in half, but the original flooring company milled the planks where the old side was used as flooring to retain the old patina.

We contacted the original flooring company who installed and finished the floor, who was actually (and still is) located in Wisconsin, and did some research on how the floor was originally finished.   This is something that you want to be absolutely sure about before you start putting a new finish down on a unique floor such as this!!!     This is obviously NOT and inexpensive floor.

Even though the 12 year old floor had some wear, it was in surprisingly good shape in many areas.   We used the same oil as the original and gave the floor new life.  The re-oiling process brought back the depth, luster, and hid all but the deepest of scratches in the old pine floor.    I am really impressed with this product, in durability, application and ease of re-coating/repair, so we intend to start using more of this product on these types of rustic, distressed or hand-scraped floors in the future.

Sorry for the quality of these pictures, because they were taken from my camera phone.   I hope to get back into the house soon with my better camera and take some better photos after the new owners have moved in.

 

 

 

 

 

 

100 Year Old Home – Pine Floor Refinish

These are pictures of one of the most unique homes that we have done.  This is a beautiful “Plantation Home” near Wynne, AR.   We refinished these floors and this set of Stairs back in 2007.  The floors were in amazingly good shape, even though the home had been neglected and even sitting empty for several years.   The floors were stained with Provincial Stain, and finished with Oil based Finish.  I hope to have some “moved in” pictures of this home soon.

Wide Plank Rustic White Oak with Stain

This project was in a Doctors Office in Harrison, AR.   This floor came from the northeastern U.S. and was a special order, “long length” flooring product.  It is a rustic white oak, with boards that were up to 12 feet long.   It is stained with a special “Burnt Umber” color.   This is a very nice high end product and the results speak for themselves.  This floor also has square nails installed.
