“Flooring is one piece of a bigger puzzle, and as such it needs to fit within the homeowner’s overall aesthetic and budget. If the home has a very neutral setting and décor, a more dramatic flooring might be appropriate, but typically the flooring is a complementary component of the design and should work with the style of home, paint colours, etc.” – Zech Inkster (Founder at Plank + Saw: Hardwood Flooring in Victoria BC + Southern Vancouver Island + Gulf Islands) Read Interview here

A Fresh Start Without Replacing Your Floor
Hardwood Floor Refinishing
Real hardwood naturally develops scratches, dents, fading and signs of use over time. That’s part of living with a natural material.
Refinishing gives us the opportunity to sand the existing surface back and create a new finish, dramatically changing the appearance of the floor without covering or replacing the original hardwood.
Refinishing can help address:
- Years of general wear
- Scratches and surface damage
- UV fading and discolouration
- Worn or deteriorating finishes
- Uneven colour
- Dated stain colours
- Floors uncovered during a renovation
- Original flooring in heritage and character homes
It can also be an opportunity to rethink the appearance of your floor with a different stain, sheen or finishing system.
