Leveraging a partnership with a local storage business, Voyageur Flooring will deliver a portable storage unit to your house one week before the sanding/installation of your hardwood floor for you to use as storage. After the work on the hardwood floor is completed, you will have one week to move your things back in, at which point we will remove the portable storage unit from your driveway. We offer this option as a part of our “regular” services to customers.

Voyageur Flooring, we use only the best products available. Because of this you can expect the finish on your hardwood floor to last from 7-10 years. (The need to refinish your hardwood floors, at some time, occurs because of normal everyday traffic and wear.) For comparison, most hardwood floor companies use products that will last between 3-5 years.

Solid 3/4" Hardwood flooring cannot be installed below grade (below the soil line) or over concrete. When a solid product encounters moisture it reacts very negatively. Therefore, a laminate or engineered flooring must be used. Laminate flooring is constructed by fusing 4-plys of material together to form a product with unprecedented strength and durability. An engineered product is very similar with the exception that they usually have a real wood layer on top of the constructed core.

Yes, however, Armstrong is not in the refinishing business, therefore, we do not have specifications on how this should be done. We'd suggest that you contact your local Bruce retailer to discuss who in your area refinishes hardwood floors, or, you may look in the yellow pages of your phone book for a list of hardwood refinishing companies in your area.

Voyageur Flooring we offer a “dust-control” service by taping off the refinish area during the sanding process with plastic.

Hardwood floor installation is a skilled trade that requires talented hands to produce the best possible results.

Although many homeowners have pets, hardwood flooring is not designed for the abuse a dog or cat can cause on a floor. Urine may permanently discolor the finish of the wood floor and large dogs' claws will probably leave scratches in the finish. The type of wood floor you buy, the color and the finish will also be factor in how much punishment the floor's finish can withstand before showing scratches and excessive wear.

We can come close to matching your old floor's color and shine, but we cannot match the old floor exactly. Due to the natural ambering of the polyurethane and the darkening of wood with age, exact matches are not possible. It will be necessary for the homeowner to be present while attempting to match a stain color and a signature of approval will be required.

With the high quality finishes that are offered and the extensive process that refinishing a floor entails, damaged areas are often removed professionally.

Yes. Most engineered floors, whether plank, strip or the Longstrip-type, can be refinished at least once and some can be refinished up to three times, depending upon the thickness of the top layer of hardwood.

This means the floor can be sanded and refinished up to three times, depending on the product, when the job is performed correctly by a professional floor refinisher.

Hardwood floors are refinished through a sand and refinish process. The floors must be sanded with a floor sanding machine to make the surface of the floor smooth again. Then a new wear layer must be applied to the floor to protect it from wear. Not all floors can be refinished, usually only solid hardwood floors can be considered for sanding and refinishing. Floor sanding machines can be rented at many building supply stores or equipment rentals.
