Traverse City Floor Restoration
Wood Floor Restoration in Traverse City, Michigan
This is a renovated 100 year old warehouse turned vacation condominium on Union Street in Traverse City, Michigan.
The images shows a portion of the middle stage process needed to restore a floor of this age. This stage requires sanding off the old paint and prepping the wood for staining. Another portion of this process requires applying polyurethane oil based finish. This is the satin coating that is applied over a darker stain.
Due to the age of the wood it is much sturdier and more solid than newer wood as well as imitation wood materials. This makes staining more difficult and can require multiple steps to be completed over a span of several days. Each layer must be adequately dried before the next coat is applied.
This does not mean that these jobs are the kind we would prefer to avoid. It may take several coats to restore the wood floors, but we undertake the projects with heart and passion.
