Frequently Asked Questions

When choosing wide-plank flooring, proper environment acclimation and subfloor preparation are critical. Planks that are 5 inches or wider have a larger surface area, making them more sensitive to the mountain climate. To ensure a flawless installation, we use advanced moisture meters to test your subfloor, meticulously level the surface, and allow the material to acclimate to your home's exact climate controls before a single board is laid.Add an answer to this item.

A luxury hardwood installation in Park City generally takes anywhere from 3 to 7 days, depending on the square footage and the complexity of the project (such as custom borders or stairs). However, the most important phase happens before installation. We require the wood to acclimate inside your temperature-controlled home for at least 5 to 10 days prior to the start date to ensure the wood stabilizes to the local mountain air.Add an answer to this item.

Yes. We specialize in crafting bespoke, custom wood floors that match the "Mountain Modern" or historic aesthetics unique to the area. Whether you are looking for a complex herringbone pattern in a Promontory estate, reclaimed timber for a Midway farmhouse, or a highly specific custom stain and matte finish for an Old Town renovation, our master floor-layers execute the design with absolute precision.

For most of our high-end projects, we utilize premium, eco-friendly waterborne finishes. You can typically walk on the floors with clean socks 24 hours after the final coat is applied. However, we recommend waiting 48 hours before allowing heavy foot traffic or shoes on the floor, and at least one week before moving heavy furniture or replacing area rugs.

It comes down to the depth of the wear. If your floors are dull with minor surface scratches but the underlying color is intact, we recommend a screen and coat in Park City. This process gently abrades the top layer of polyurethane and applies a fresh protective coat without cutting into the wood. However, if your floors have deep gouges, sun bleaching, or water damage, a full hardwood floor restoration is required. Restoration involves sanding the wood down to bare timber, repairing damaged planks, and applying completely new stain and sealers.

While no process can eliminate 100% of microscopic particles, our professional dustless sanding in Utah utilizes specialized, high-powered HEPA vacuum systems connected directly to our sanding equipment. This system evacuates 99% of airborne dust outside of your home into a containment unit before it can settle into your HVAC system, drapes, or furniture. This white-glove process is mandatory for high-end properties in Deer Valley and Promontory, ensuring your mountain retreat stays pristine and your indoor air quality remains healthy.

Absolutely. During a full wood floor refinishing in Park City, we sand off the old finish to expose the raw, natural grain. This is the perfect opportunity for floor staining to modernize your home’s aesthetic. We specialize in the "Mountain Modern" palette—shifting away from outdated orange or cherry tones toward contemporary natural oaks, muted greys, or rich, matte charcoal stains that match the design trends favored by local interior designers.

Proper hardwood floor maintenance in the Wasatch Back requires a mix of moisture control and regular cleaning. The snow, ice-melt salt, and abrasive grit tracked into your home during the ski season can act like sandpaper on your polyurethane finish. We highly recommend a professional wood floor deep cleaning every spring to safely extract embedded salt grit that standard mopping leaves behind. Additionally, keeping your indoor relative humidity between 30% and 50% year-round will prevent the wood from shrinking and cracking during dry winters.
