K.H.’s Project Story
At Wood Flooring Masters, we recently completed a 500 sq ft flooring restoration for K.H. at their residence on Thompson Street in SoHo, Manhattan (10012). The goal was to refresh aging floors with a natural look while keeping the original character of the apartment intact.
The Customer’s Vision: Clean, Natural, and Dust-Free
K.H. wanted their home’s wood floors to look renewed but not overly polished—just a natural, classic finish that aligned with SoHo’s loft-style vibe. The project included moving furniture, addressing gaps between floorboards, and ensuring a dust-free environment to avoid disrupting the rest of the home.
We provided Super Dustless Services, sealing off rooms with plastic sheeting to keep the air clean and surfaces free from sanding debris—something K.H. deeply appreciated.
Hardwood Floor Refinishing in SoHo, Manhattan: A Hardwood Floor Renovation Story (Customer: K.H.)
Our Sanding and Refinishing Process
Once the room was prepped, we:
- Sanded the entire 500 sq ft floor to remove old finish and smooth out wear.
- Filled visible gaps with professional-grade wood filler to create a seamless surface.
- Skipped stain (per the customer’s request) for a natural look.
- Applied three coats of high-quality water-based polyurethane for a clean, durable, and low-odor protective finish.
Every step was completed with precision, keeping in mind the aesthetics of older SoHo buildings and the importance of blending new work with the existing style.
Matching the Original Finish
One of the key requests from K.H. was that the new finish matched the existing one. We carefully tailored the final coat to mirror the original sheen and tone, resulting in a finish so smooth and consistent that it looked like the floor had never been touched—just naturally perfect.
