OC Flooring restores hardwood floors across Cottage Lake — the older lake homes and the newer estates on wooded acreage out toward Bear Creek and Paradise Lake. Dust-free refinishing, custom staining, and durable low-VOC finishes, all done on-site by our own crew.
It is important to note that with each sanding and refinishing process, a portion of the valuable wood from the top wear layer is removed. Whether you have solid wood floors or engineered floors, both types have a limited lifespan and can only be sanded a certain number of times.
Typically, floors have approximately ¼" of wear layer, and once the initial thickness is reduced to the tongue, the floors will start to weaken. Therefore, our approach is to be extremely cautious and remove only the absolute minimum amount of wood necessary. Our goal is to preserve the structural integrity of your floors while still delivering a stunning finished result.
Yes. Cottage Lake runs from older homes near the lake to newer estates on wooded lots. We refinish original oak and fir as well as newer oak and engineered floors — checking the wear layer first on engineered.
It can — shaded, tree-heavy lots hold moisture, and that can lead to cupping. We check moisture first, let the wood settle, then sand flat and refinish so it stays flat.
Most projects run about $3–$6 per sq. ft., depending on wood, repairs, stain, and finish. You get one written estimate after we see the floor in person.
Most refinishes run 2–4 days; larger homes take a bit longer. Water-based finishes are walkable sooner, and we'll tell you when each room is ready.
Yes. We source fir, oak, or maple to match species and width, weave in repairs, and blend the stain so patched areas disappear into the original floor.
Always. We come to your home, measure, photograph the floor's condition, and email a clear written quote — no obligation, no phone tag.
