Exotic Floor Makeover in Minnetonka

The owners of this stunning home on Lake Minnetonka wanted to give their exotic floors a fresh look. This is a trend we have seen a lot lately as the exotic flooring boom happened about ten-years ago, and the original finish is starting to look pretty dated in a lot of homes.

The Details

Our whole team was involved in this sanding and refinishing project and we are absolutely obsessed with how it turned out!

These are Brazilian Cherry hardwood floors that we sanded and refinished with 3 parts True Black and 2 parts Dark Grey.

It's Not too Late for a Winter Makeover

Did the arrival of winter catch you off guard? You’re not alone. With the early beginning to snowy days and chilly temperatures, your Fall checklist might have gotten lost in the shuffle. If getting a buff and coat, sanding and refinishing, or replacing old carpet with hardwood floors was on your to-do list, we are here to tell you that it’s still okay to schedule a hardwood makeover in the cold winter months!

When the holiday season hits, it can be hard to imagine having construction done in your home, but there are several reasons why this might actually be the perfect time.

1. You’re gone a lot! You don’t need to be around the noise and smells that come with in-home construction. If you’re planning to be out of town for a few days around the holidays or in January, you can be confident in having our team complete the job while you are away.

2. We reduce the mess. We know that adding dust to your home when it closed up in the winter doesn’t sound great, but we go above and beyond when we plastic off our work zone in an effort to keep the rest of your home as clean as possible.

Maybe the hustle and bustle of the holiday season isn’t what’s holding you back from scheduling your hardwood flooring job. Perhaps you just don’t know what you want yet! We get it. Hardwood flooring is something that will last decades, so you want to select something that you will love forever. That’s tough to do when home trends change so much. Check out this video for upcoming flooring trends in 2020, and you can also ask our team at your free in-home estimate what would work best in your home.

If you’re ready to start your hardwood flooring winter makeover, give us a call today or submit an estimate request form. We cannot wait to transform your home!

The Right Time for Your Hardwood Job

When will it be the perfect time to schedule your hardwood flooring job? The answer varies for every family based on your personal schedules, finances, etc. However, there are opportune times for us as a construction company to get your job done. A few of these opportune times include before the holidays and during Spring Break.

We often get customers calling us in mid-November to schedule a buff & coat or sand & refinish project to get their floors looking good as new before the holidays. The problem with calling so close to the install date is that you may not get your job completed before the date you would like. If you are looking for a holiday face-lift for your hardwood floors, we recommend getting your job on the books now, even if we schedule it out a few months.

Another great time to schedule your hardwood flooring job is when you are gone for the holidays or on Spring Break with your family. Buffing or sanding a floor creates a mess and reapplying finish is a smelly job, so why not have it all done when you aren’t home! We work closely with our customers to make them comfortable with our team being in their home when they are on vacation and always protect your belongings as if they were our own.

So what are you waiting for?! Give us a call today to schedule your late Fall, early Winter flooring project! Or easily submit an estimate request form on our website. We cannot wait to gift you with beautiful floors for the holiday season!
