The Problem

New red oak has a distinctly pinker, lighter tone than 25-year-old ambered red oak. Simply refinishing the whole floor with one stain would still show the difference under sunlight.

Our Solution

We interlaced new boards into the existing field at all doorways, sanded the entire first floor to bare wood, tested three custom stain blends on site, and finished with an oil-modified polyurethane to match the warmth of the original amber tone.
