Project overview
The goal, materials, and finished scope.
In September 2026, Floors Now restored the existing hardwood in a Berlin home's living room, entry, and stairs. The crew removed and disposed of 352 square feet of carpet, sanded and refinished 282 square feet of hardwood flooring, and refinished all 12 stair treads. The wood was left natural without stain and finished with a water-based coating. The photographs follow the living-room floor from the sanded stage to the finished result, with views of the refinished hardwood from the entry beside the stairs and across the living room.
