Red Oak Hardwood Floor 1 - Restoration by Advantage Hardwood
These Red Oak hardwood floors were in pretty rough shape before we started the restoration process. One of the major benefits of genuine wood flooring is the flexibility to change the color without replacing the entire floor. Here, we began by sanding away the old finish, bringing the surface back to a fresh, clean starting point. This process allows us to apply a new, updated color—something more modern and natural. You can see the transformation at every stage: from the original worn-out look, through the sanding phase, and finally to the newly finished result that elevates the space.
White Oak hardwood floors & hardwood stairs - Restoration by Advantage Hardwood
Here is a recent project we recently completed with white oak wood in a urban 7+ year old home. The customer wanted to restore the floors and not replace them to keep the modern theme in the house consistent.
As you can see in the before and after pics we took these beat up, worn, dark grey floors and restored/refinished them to appear like brand new white oak wood floors with custom lighter stain color.
