CLASSIC HARDWOOD FLOORS INC

"[Member name removed] job was typical of the kind of work we do for homeowners. We go in remove existing floor ,prep sub-floor , remove and re-install base trim and then install new floor in chosen area. It's always good to have customers who respond to messages and are willing to meet at a convenient time for both of us. Thank you for the work , I hope we can work together again in the future. Respectfully Joe with Classic"

"Thanks for the kind words. We specialize in wood floor restoration and refinish with a patented dust containment system which keeps the overall project as clean as possible. Visqueen is put into place where needed to section off rooms that are not being worked on. Estimates are free and we use low VOC finishes that have a great appearance and long lasting wear. Thanks again Joe with Classic"

"Thank you for your kind words, we do our best to service our customers. The job was in the north end in Boise a very nice place to live I might add. We refinished the oak bed room and hallway and screened and coated the rest of the floor space. As for the communications , we've not only been out of our minds busy but I've had that nasty cold/flu bug that we all can't get rid of and when I get that sick my timing gets way off . This was a nice job for us thank you for the work. Joe Wallace Classic hardwood floors"

"[MEMBER] Was great to work with. We removed the old carpet and replaced it with new Maple flooring and new flush mount wood vents.The tie-in to the floor was in the door way which made for a nice transition form old to new. Matching old and new hardwood can be difficult in our area do to all the different mills that the local suppliers have bought from over the years. [MEMBERS] Floor was a good case in point. It was an older floor installed some years ago and knowing the right grade and area of the country it came from was important to the overall look. Thanks Deb for the work.

"[member name removed] were very good people to work with. There floor was a challenge to work with, they have a 5 inch hand scraped Walnut floor. They didn't want the floor sanded to preserve the hand scraped look. There is a process available to clean and apply new finish to these type of floors, it works well and extends life to the floor. It is also possible to use this process on different types of floor including most Laminate floors. Respectfully Joe with Classic"

"[member name removed] has a Maple floor that had water damage about 5 years ago we repaired the damage and refinished the rest of the floor. She recently had another incident with water damage and called us to take care of the matter. She liked the fact we used Low Voc finishes that have worked well in her home for all these years and that she didn't have to move out of her home while we were doing the work. Keep in mind that everyone's level of sensitivity is different. Most people are able to work with the smell of these finishes. The other challenge to floors like these is to match the existing floor where new wood is required to replace the damaged area. While we are successful a large part of the time, sometimes the wood is no longer produced and we can only use what is available. Fortunately [member name removed] floor was a common Maple easy to match. Thanks [member name removed] your Awesome. Joe with Classic"

"[member name removed] had a Red Oak floor that had been lived on like most of our floors. It was time for some TLC so we sanded the floor to bare wood, trowel filled the floor with filler to fill the gaps. Sanded off the filler ,edged the floor, hand scraped the corners and buffed the floor with a multi dics attachment .We applied 1 water base seal coat and 2 water base finish coats. [member name removed] had his wife didn't need to be away from there home over night do to the low Voc's of the finish. While everyone's tolerance is different to smells, a large part of the time most people stay away form the house only 5 to 6 hours when the finish is drying. I often tell people to catch a pizza and a movie and come home . The first 24 hours is stocking feet only. Then shoes after 24 hours , furniture 72 hours after final coat to be followed by rugs at the end of 7 days. Classic uses water base finishes to preserve the natural beauty of the wood and for long lasting endurance. [member name removed] refinished his floor before selling his home along with some other improvements ,it sold shortly there after. [member name removed] and his wife were great customers thank you for your business. Respectfully Joe with Classic"

"[member name removed] like a lot of people purchased a home with hardwood floors and wanted to update other parts of it to match. We removed the base trim and carpet along with sub-floor prep. We installed new wood to tie into the existing and sanded it all together. Then it was coated all together to try to achieve an even appearance from the old to the new. While we do our best to get as close as possible matches from old to new , in some instances the product is no longer available due to age or the company who produced it went out of business. We re-installed the base trim ,hauled off the trash and completed our work. [member name removed] was another in a long line Great customers . Thanks [member name removed]. Your awesome Joe with Classic"

"Tony and his wife moved to Cascade and needed some help with there flooring needs. We installed some pre-finished flooring Tony had purchased. They have a Killer view of Cascade Lake it was a real pleasure to work there in such a lovely place. Installing any type of hardwood takes the proper amount of prep time and fore thought to make sure you get the results best suited for the job. Tony's job was no exception . Where they live close to a large body of water it's best to have the wood on site for several days and to make sure the customers knows the wood needs to be at living temperature before installation begins. The mistake that most people make is that they turn the temperature way down when there gone somewhere for long periods of time and the wood takes on moisture . When they get home the first thing is to turn up the heat then floor dries out and the floor shrinks. Or when summer hits and no one has been in the house for months the floor moves because of the wide temperature changes. It is best to keep your summer home within 10 degrees of living temperature to reduce the overall movement of the floor. Tony and his wife are lovely people it was my privilege to do work for them.
