Saving a Water Damaged Floor - Refinishing Instead of Replacing
This home in Edmonds, Washington had a plumbing leak and a small flood. They were told by another company they would need to tear out their whole floor and replace it. I was able to save them a lot of time and money by drying it out and refinishing it instead.

Installing Oak Flooring in a Bedroom - Subfloor Preparation is Important!
Просмотров 6978 месяцев назад
When installing a new hardwood floor, making sure the subfloor is flat is key. During construction the subfloor will often get rained on, especially here in Seattle, and the edges will swell up. Even after it dries, it's like getting a piece of paper wet, it never quite goes back to being flat. This bedroom was originally built with carpet, so the pad would have hidden these issues. Now I've go...
Refinishing an Oak Bedroom (Time Lapse)
Просмотров 1926 лет назад
The homeowner removed the carpet in this bedroom due to severe allergies. The oak flooring underneath (mixed red and white) was pretty beat up, and the finish was discolored in many spots. The floor had also been gouged by the carpet stretcher, luckily the gouges were going with the grain and were able to be filled with putty instead of replacing the boards. The finish going on at the end is Bo...

This century old fir floor is in an apartment in Seattle's Capitol Hill, and refinishing it felt like a geological study. The various strata included layers of varnish, wax, multiple colors of paint, then carpet covering the whole lot. After the carpet was removed I was called in to save the patient. I started by grinding off the layers of various crap with 16 grit belts on the big machine, the...

The material includes maple, American cherry, red and white oak, in a variety of grades, and widths ranging from 2-1/4" to 6". The real showpiece is a large oval medallion about 2' x 4' with inlays of maple, walnut, and mahogany. The medallion was made over ...

Here I'm doing a small repair on two dents in a white oak floor. First I use an iron to "pop" the dents out, then sand and refinish the damaged boards.

Toward the end of a fairly tricky and slow paced install, this was the first area I was able to work out in the open. The material is solid unfinished #1 white oak strip flooring. I had to stop and set cleats several times because I was outpacing the airflow through the 1/4" hoses I'm using. Need to upgrade to 3/8" hoses and fittings to really get the maximum speed out of this gun Friendly Day ...
