Pre-finish and Distressing Options

From enhancing the look of the wood to making installation easier, clients choose pre-finished flooring for a variety of reasons. There are many options available with the most frequently ordered summarized for you below. Please note that having your flooring pre-finished will add about a week to your order.

UV Cured Polyurethane -- More build for the appearance of a more finished floor

• A longer cycle before maintenance is required.
• Extremely durable scratch-resistant finish.
• Maintenance requires a flooring professional.

UV Oil -- Very low build for a natural appearance

• The simplest to maintain finish with the ability for the owner to repair if desired.
• Requires more frequent attention.
• Can be repaired without a flooring professional.

Pre-finishing cost is $1.50 per square foot w/out micro bevel or $1.85 per square foot with a micro bevel. A micro-bevel is available for $.35 per square foot on unfinished products. Other options are available including Water-based UV-cured polyurethane. Any finish is available in a wide array of stain colors.

Any of our woods, pre-finished or unfinished, can be further distressed. The four options here, from left to right, can be combined with other marks:

• Band sawn
• Brushed
• Sculptured Hand Scraped
• Foot Worn Hand Scraped

Distressing can include nail, worm, screw and chain marks in an esthetically pleasing pattern.
