New Oak in One Room, Start to Finish

New hardwood. One Room, Start to Finish

A single room of new oak, from the first boards to the last coat, in the homeowner's own photos.

Anthony took pictures the whole way through, so you can see exactly how a floor goes in.

Plastic went up on the doorway and over the TV, with blue tape holding it, before anything else happened. Black paper goes down on the subfloor under the boards.

The boards are racked out across the room first so the seams fall in the right places. Then they’re nailed down row by row, with a compressor on the job and a frame of boards around the edge of the room.

New unfinished oak gets sanded right in the room, so every board ends up level with the next one.

With the finish on, the oak turns warm and the grain comes up. Anthony wrote that he couldn’t tell us how much he appreciated the workmanship and the quality for one little room.

In Anthony’s words.
