My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

how do you stain floors to look like this?

14 years ago
Is there a way to stain them to look like this? I have maple floors I want to refinish to look like this but we're struggling to get it to work. Any thoughts appreciated

    jayroby! i want the same..did you get an answer?!

    No answer unfortunately. The only answer I received was that this stain (or one similar) was probably pre-done at a factory. Very unhelpful since I already had floors and just wanted to refinish. But my floor guy eventually got a stain rather close to this (took him a few tries). If you're in the LA area, I can give you his info.

    I am coming to LA on Tuesday to visit my son. However, I live in Toronto! Could you give me his info, if I give you my email? They have to do some samples for the floor while I away, so I am panicking!! Do you like what you ended up with?

    Definitely could give you his info via email. And you're welcome to come see them when you visit if you like. I love what we ended up with and get comments on them from everybody who comes to the house.
