Abrams Hardwood Floors in Maine has been sanding, installing and refinishing hardwood floors for over thirty years. We have had the pleasure of working for such customers as Disney World, Harvard University, University of Maine, MIT, and many fine residential customers. We believe that our excellent service and craftsmanship is second to none. Abrams Hardwood Floors employees are thoroughly trained, experienced hardwood floor technicians who meet our high standards of quality to assure your satisfaction.
We at Abrams Hardwood Floors would like to thank you for giving us the opportunity to bid on your project and to show that there really is a service out there that cares. Using our 30+ years experience in the hardwood business, we have compiled a list of several items that we at Abrams Hardwood Floors feel are very important for you to know before hiring any flooring contractor. Primarily, expect to be inconvenienced. We will make every effort to complete the job as expeditiously and painlessly as possible, but you will be restricted from walking on the floor during various phases of your job depending on the type of finish you selected.
If you need new hardwood flooring, we can install unfinished wood and finish it for you or we can install a beautiful pre-finished floor. Our installers are the best in the business with over 65 years of combined hardwood flooring installation experience. We use only the finest wood to make sure that your floors will last as long as possible. Honestly, both hold up the same. They are both maintained the same and should be re-coated within three to five years. This consists of buffing the floor with a synthetic pad and applying more polyurethane (either water or oil).
If we remove carpet, we may find pet stains, water-damage, razor marks from a previous carpet installation or other unforeseen damage. In most cases, sanding will not fix these areas depending on their severity. The only way to repair troublesome spots is to remove and replace them. Unfortunately, this will most likely delay the job by a minimum of one day (likely to be longer depending on our schedule). We will evaluate the damage and inform you of the options, giving you a price for each one. We will need some form of written confirmation before we proceed with the additional work.
If we are supposed to apply a stain to your wood floors, then we need to know the exact color. If you are unsure as to the color you wish to use, please make arrangements for someone to be at your job site on the first day of the sanding process, so that we may do a stain test for your approval. If this is not possible, please notify the office so that we can arrange for the test to be done at a more convenient time. When staining dark colors, it is virtually impossible not to get a minimum amount of stain on your door jams, spindles, side skirts, etc, so please be prepared to do some touch up painting.
