Wood Floor Installation

Homeowners in the Richmond area choose hardwood floors over carpet or vinyl for many different reasons. Not only are hardwood floors timeless, but they are more durable, easy to manage, and can add to your home’s property value. When installed properly, hardwood floors can last for decades!

Hardwood floors are a beautiful addition to any home, and many homeowners don’t realize that they are also better for your health and environment. Carpeting can trap allergens, toxins, and pests that can be detrimental to your health. With hardwood floors, you won’t have these issues, because toxins and allergens can be swept and mopped away. Wood flooring is also an eco-friendly choice because it is a natural substance and works to better insulate your home, which lowers energy usage.

If your Richmond home already has wood flooring, but it has been heavily damaged, let us help. Our team is highly trained, and we are equipped to provide fast installation services. If it’s time to upgrade the floors in your home, make Buff & Coat your first choice. We have several decades of experience serving the Richmond, Midlothian, Chesterfield, and Glen Allen areas.

Common Causes for Replacing Your Hardwood Floors

Hardwood floors are durable, easy to clean, and healthier for your whole family, and not only that, but they are also much easier to repair. With carpet, if you have stains, water damage, or tears, you have to replace all of the carpet in the room. But with hardwoods, you don’t have to replace the floor of an entire room when only a small section is damaged, which can save you a great deal of money and stress. We are proud to help homeowners in Richmond, Glen Allen, Midlothian, and Chesterfield enjoy beautiful, well-maintained hardwood floors

No matter the cause of your hardwood floor damage, Buff & Coat is here to help. Here are a few of the most common causes of hardwood floor damage that we see in the Richmond area.

Scratches: When scratches are too deep to be repaired, we replace the damaged planks with new ones, so the blemishes completely disappear.

Stains: While hardwood floors are extremely durable, they can still be affected by household elements. Water, milk, juice, pet urine, and bleach can all eat away at your floor’s finish and leave them stained. At Buff & Coat, we can fix these areas of your hardwood floors to protect your home’s appearance and your budget.

Water Damage: Water stains and warping are very common on hardwood floors. Many household appliances experience leaks and drips, which can lead to unsightly damage. Often, water damage can usually be removed with our floor sanding service. Water can also cause warping, expansion, and wood rot. When this happens, more serious floor replacement may be necessary, which Buff & Coat is equipped to handle.
