The young couple renovating this ' 70s built home in Frankston went for a custom Walnut stain over their Tasmanian Oak boards after being inspired by another of our stained floors they'd seen.
Like many homes of this era there were boards and sections that needed some repair work. With the patching of the floorboards done, and the superfine sanding completed we got down to the task of applying the stain and the finishing coats.
The staining is done in manageable sections so that we can get each bit right before moving onto the next. This gives us a lot of control over the end result. Which, I'm pleased to note was outstanding.

A wonderful stain choice by these home-owners
This Tasmanian Oak floor is a terrific example of just how nice a stained floor can look in the right hands. It's a floor I'd proudly show anyone.
