Hardwood Floor Revival
Located in the vibrant and architecturally rich Flatiron District of Manhattan, L.S. needed a clean, modern update to the floors of three connected office spaces on West 21st Street. The total area—360 square feet—had previously been covered in carpet, hiding the original hardwood underneath.
With a goal of restoring the natural beauty of the wood while maintaining a professional, polished look, L.S. partnered with Wood Flooring Masters to bring the floors back to life—without adding stain or altering the wood’s original tone.
From Carpet to Character: A Smooth Transformation
The first step was carefully removing the existing carpet, revealing the underlying hardwood. While the surface showed signs of wear and adhesive residue, the wood beneath had strong potential. L.S. opted to preserve its natural color, allowing the grain and tone of the hardwood to shine through without the use of stains.
After sanding down all 360 square feet across the three offices, our team applied three coats of water-based polyurethane, chosen for its quick drying time and low odor—perfect for a work environment. The semi-gloss finish offered the ideal balance between subtle sheen and modern professionalism.
