Unfinished White Oak Installation
C.C., a homeowner in Manhattan, NY, decided to update their floors with a fresh hardwood installation. They chose unfinished 5” white oak planks to create a classic, timeless look for their 230-square-foot space. Our team at Wood Flooring Masters was called in to handle the entire process, from installation to sanding and refinishing. The choice of unfinished wood allowed for a custom finish that highlights the natural beauty of the white oak.
Sanding and Refinishing for a Flawless Finish
After the new white oak hardwood was installed, the next step was sanding. Sanding is crucial in ensuring that the surface of the wood is smooth, even, and free from any imperfections. Our sanding process removed any rough spots, preparing the floors for the final finish. Once the floors were perfectly sanded, we applied three coats of water-based polyurethane. This polyurethane finish is both durable and environmentally friendly, providing a protective layer that enhances the natural beauty of the white oak.

Design and Moldings for a Custom Look
To complete the hardwood floor installation, we designed a custom layout for C.C.’s space. The new white oak planks were carefully arranged to match the design vision for the room. Additionally, we installed new moldings to complement the floors and provide a polished, finished look. The moldings tied everything together, giving the floors a seamless, elegant appearance.
Garbage Removal and Waste Management
As part of our comprehensive flooring services, we took care of all the garbage removal after completing the installation and refinishing. We included an extra 10% of material to cover any potential waste or breaks, ensuring that the project ran smoothly without any setbacks. This thorough approach meant that C.C. didn’t have to worry about cleanup or any additional material issues during the renovation process.
The end result was a beautifully installed and refinished hardwood floor that truly transformed the space. C.C.’s 230-square-foot area in Manhattan now boasts stunning, natural white oak floors that enhance the overall aesthetic of the home.
