Restoring Classic Hardwood in Throggs Neck, Bronx
Located in the peaceful waterside neighborhood of Throggs Neck in the Bronx, J.V.’s home on Schurz Avenue had beautiful hardwood floors in need of a refresh. With 1,120 square feet of surface area, the client was looking for a solution that would restore the floors’ natural charm while enhancing their warmth and durability.
J.V. chose Wood Flooring Masters for our trusted expertise in complete floor restoration—from sanding and staining to oil-based finishing. The result? A striking transformation that stayed true to the home’s original character.
Tailored Planning and Natural Stain Selection
After discussing goals with J.V., it was clear the priority was to maintain the natural look of the wood—without over-darkening or altering its tone. We recommended a natural stain paired with two coats of oil-based polyurethane for a finish that would not only enrich the wood’s appearance but also hold up beautifully over time.
Our team carefully assessed the existing floors and identified areas that required special attention due to wear and color inconsistencies—a common challenge in older Bronx homes with original flooring.
Sanding, Staining, and Refinishing in Throggs Neck, Bronx: A Hardwood Floor Renovation Story (Customer: J.V.)
The Process: Careful Craftsmanship from Start to Finish
We began the project with a complete sanding of all 1,120 sq ft, removing the old finish and evening out the surface. After sanding, we applied a natural wood stain, chosen to subtly highlight the grain and bring out the floor’s original warmth.
Once the stain dried, we sealed the floors with two coats of oil-based polyurethane—a durable finish that provides a rich, amber glow and long-lasting protection. This traditional product is especially well-suited for homeowners who want a more classic look with excellent wear resistance.
A Bronx Home Restored—Yours Could Be Next
J.V. was thrilled with the final result: a beautifully even, naturally stained floor that elevated every room it touched. The Throggs Neck home now has floors that reflect both quality and character—delivered with precision and professionalism by Wood Flooring Masters.
