What Is Unfinished Flooring?
Unfinished (or On-Site-Finished) Flooring is raw Solid or Engineered Hardwood that has no staining, sealant, or topcoat applied by the manufacturer. These floors are installed, sanded, stained (if desired), sealed, & finished on-site. With this flooring product, you have the flexibility to customize your floors with your choice of species, color, grade, finish, & even the size of the boards. Using unfinished hardwood also enables you to match the style, size, & finish of any existing hardwood in your home, whether to create cohesiveness between adjacent rooms or to add the finishing touch to expansions or additions.
Why Choose Unfinished Flooring?
- Offers flexibility to customize your floors with virtually unlimited combinations of sizes, grades, colors, & finishes
- When replacing other types of floor coverings with hardwood floors, unfinished floors give a better chance for consistency with existing hardwood floors
- Nail-Down Installation Method availability to strengthen the overall integrity of your floor
Unfinished Flooring Installation
When purchasing your selected raw, unfinished flooring materials from Van Briggle Floors, we will personally deliver them to your site, giving the hardwood time to acclimate. Once adjusted, our in-house crew will begin the preparations & installation of your floors. Once the installation is complete, the floors will be putty-filled & sanded to a flat, smooth surface. Next, your floor is stained to the color of your choice or sealed with a clear, natural product if you wish to maintain the wood’s unique beauty. For the finishing touch, we will use one of our Certified Bona Greenguard water-based finishes or an oil-modified polyurethane for a durable, easy-to-clean surface.
What Is Prefinished Hardwood Flooring?
Prefinished Hardwood Flooring is sanded, stained, & finished by the manufacturer. Available in both Engineered & Solid Hardwood boards, these floors offer virtually limitless color options with a variety of finishes. With prefinished floors, you can choose from different appearance grades, sheen levels, & surface distressing. Many of our prefinished collections allow you to choose the width, thickness, & length of your floorboards as well! At Van Briggle Floors, all of our prefinished flooring options are California CARB-Compliant & Lacey Act-Certified, making them safe for you & your family to enjoy for years.
Why Choose Prefinished Flooring?
- More stability in areas with a higher moisture content
- Installation creates minimal dust, harmful fumes, or other inconveniences associated with unfinished floors
- Offers virtually unlimited choices with combinations of surface grades, finish types, colors, & sizes
- A significantly shorter timeframe for the installation process than unfinished floors!
