Eleven services, each with its own page. If you're not sure which one you need, call and describe the problem — that's usually faster than reading.
Wood Floor Installation
White oak, hickory, maple, wide plank, herringbone — nail-down over joists or glue-down over slab. Every job starts with a moisture test on the substrate and a real acclimation window, because 6 inches of annual rain and single-digit summer humidity move wood harder than most installers admit.

We sand to bare wood, cut out the scratches and gray buildup, stain if you want it, and lay fresh coats. Most hardwood takes this 3 to 5 times in its life — so refinishing beats replacing on almost every Bakersfield floor that still has wood above the tongue.

Most floor damage that looks fatal isn't. We patch, splice, re-secure, and blend — matching species, grain direction, and stain so the repair disappears into the run instead of announcing itself in the middle of your living room.
See the details →Dustless Floor Sanding
Our sanders run shrouded and tied to an outdoor HEPA unit, so the dust goes into a drum instead of onto your baseboards. It isn't 100% dust-free and we won't pretend otherwise — but most customers are back in the room within 24 to 48 hours.
See the details →Engineered Wood Floor Installation
Most homes built here after 1970 sit on a concrete slab, and solid hardwood fights that. Engineered plank glues straight down over a moisture-tested slab, handles a 40-degree daily temperature swing, and still sands and recoats like real wood — because the top layer is.

Cupped boards, dark staining, a spongy spot near the fridge — caught early, most of it dries flat and refinishes clean. We find the moisture source first, meter the subfloor, dry it to spec, then repair only what actually failed.
See the details →Hardwood Floor Repair & Patching
Took out a wall and got left with a bald strip of subfloor? Dog had an accident that sanding won't touch? We lace new boards into the existing run board by board, so the patch reads as original floor instead of a rectangle someone dropped in.
See the details →Subfloor Repair & Leveling
A floor is only as flat as what's under it. We shim joists, sister damaged framing in raised-foundation homes, and grind or self-level slabs to 3/16 inch over 10 feet. This step gets skipped constantly in this valley. We don't skip it.

Sometimes wood is the wrong answer — a rental turnover, a laundry room, a slab that reads high on a moisture test. Rigid-core LVP with a 20-mil wear layer handles 105-degree afternoons and mop water without cupping, and we set it over the same prepped, leveled substrate we'd give a hardwood job.
See the details →Historic Wood Floor Restoration
The vertical-grain Douglas fir under the carpet in Oleander-Sunset and Westchester bungalows was milled from old-growth timber nobody can buy anymore. It sands thin and it burnishes fast. We restore it with the grit sequence and finish schedule it actually needs, not the one that's fastest.
See the details →Wood Floor Deep Cleaning & Recoating
If the finish is tired but the wood underneath is sound, you don't need a full sand. We strip the residue, abrade the existing coating, and lay fresh topcoats — one day of work, a fraction of the cost, and years added to the finish you already have.
