Our Services
Installation
Our hard wood specialists are highly experienced and most have been working with Gunneson Flooring for many years. We offer our customers two installation options. We can coordinate your entire job or will install wood that is supplied by you or your general contractor. Speciality installations such as boarders, repairs and floor matching are also available.
Wood Floor Supply
Gunneson Flooring Company offers a wide assortment of woods such as oak (white and red), maple, cherry and exotic species. We only use the best woods graded select or above. Wood grade is very important to the finished product. We can also supply you with specially milled wood for a more custom look. These woods are available in various widths and lengths either unfinished or factory pre-finished. Ask about pre-made and custom medallions, floor decals and painted accents for unique designs.
Staining
We are experts in custom stain colors and color matching. Wood staining is an art that requires experience. Sometimes it is necessary to stain floors to match other existing floors in the house. We can stain your floors to match most any color that is desired.
If you are undecided about what stain color you would like to use on your floors we can prepare a few swatch options of stains on your floor and allow you to see the color of the floor stain throughout the day in sunlight and at night so you can make the best decision to choose for your floors.
Sanding
The proper sanding of a wood floor requires an experienced craftsman with an eye for quality, as well as safety. Our employees are OSHA certified with 10 or more hours of training. Dust containment is important to us because the cleaner the jobsite is the finer the finished product will be. Most jobs can be sanded and the first of three coats applied in one day with additional days for the other two coats. The curing of each coat is important and should not be rushed. All of the furniture must be removed from the rooms that are being worked in. We can assist you with this.

Finishing
One of the biggest decisions you will make is finishing. There is much misinformation and confusion about the types of finishes available. We stay informed about new, safer and better finishes. There are two basic types of wood floor polyurethane available for floor coating.
Oil base polyurethane is the most common. It has an amber color that will darken or yellow over time. Oil base polyurethane takes more time to dry and has a strong chemical odor. Three coats are standard. Floors coated with oil base polyurethane will require three days before the floor will be complete.
The water base polyurethanes are stronger and safer than ever with shorter curing time. Water based poly has a lighter color so it dries clear and helps the floor retain its original natural or stain color. It has a light odor that reduces as the floor dries. Because two coats can be applied in one day the job is finished faster and with less odor. Floors coated with water base polyurethane can be finished with four coats in two days.
Carpet Removal
We can also remove and dispose of your old carpets before getting started on your hardwood floor project. Let us do the demo work and removal so that you don't have to.
