Before & after
Same floor. A fresh start.
Slide the gold handle left or right to reveal the before or after. Arrow keys work too.
BeforeAfterWhat I do
Good floors start with good work.
A new floor, an old one worth saving, or a repair that needs to blend in. I’ll help you figure out what makes sense.
Sanding & Refinishing
Sand away years of wear, work through stain samples, and finish with a color and sheen you’re happy to live with.
Refinishing details →Repair & Restoration
Damaged boards, awkward patches, or new flooring that needs to meet the old. I work to make the repair belong.
Repair details →Buff & Coat
If the wood is sound and the finish is compatible, a fresh coat can add protection without sanding the floor back to bare wood.
Maintenance details →Custom Stain & Finish
See the color on your own wood. We’ll compare stain, sheen, and finish options in the light of your home.
Custom options →Handcrafted Floors
Borders, patterns, reclaimed wood, and hand-worked details. For a floor with a little more of your own character.

“Sterling did a beautiful job matching our existing hickory floors, extending them throughout the house and patiently worked with us on stains and seal treatments until we got it just right. We are thrilled with the end result and loved working with him.”

“Thanks to Sterling’s skilled craftsmanship, our wood floors are beautiful! He patched, repaired, and resurfaced our existing cherry wood floors then extended the flooring into another room and entry way. All of it looks fantastic. Throughout the process, he listened, advised, and worked with us to achieve the stain and finish we envisioned. He went out of his way to accommodate our schedule and proved himself to be efficient, careful, and diligent. We recommend him without hesitation!”

The Heritage standard
I’m the one working on your floor.
You’ll talk with me at the walkthrough, hear from me while the work is underway, and walk the finished floor with me before I leave.
I care about the parts you notice every day: a clean transition, a well-matched board, a finish that feels right in the room.
