Site-Finished Hardwood Floor Installation in Southeastern Wisconsin

Bring timeless craftsmanship and natural beauty into your home with site-finished hardwood flooring from Wicks Wood Floors, Inc. Unlike prefinished flooring, site-finished hardwood is installed as raw wood planks, then sanded, stained, and sealed right in your home. This process creates a seamless, custom look that enhances the character and value of your home for decades.

Why Choose Site-Finished Hardwood?

Site-finished hardwood offers unique benefits compared to prefinished flooring:

• Custom stain options: Match cabinets, trim, or existing floors
• Choice of sheen: Matte, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss
• Seamless look: No beveled edges between boards
• Superior color blending: Ideal for matching with older or adjoining hardwood
• Long lifespan: Can be refinished multiple times for decades of use

Note: Because stain and finish are applied on-site, your floors may require a few days of drying and curing before heavy use or moving furniture back.

Our Site-Finished Hardwood Installation Process

Every project is unique, and we take the time to prepare properly so your new floor lasts for generations. Our detailed installation process may include:

• Old floor removal and disposal: Safe removal of existing flooring

• Floor patching and leveling: Correcting imperfections for a smooth surface
• Undercutting jambs, casings, and banisters: For a seamless, professional fit

• Sanding, staining, and finishing: Applying your choice of stain and protective finish on-site for a smooth, durable surface
• Bona certified contractor
• Engineered and site-finished flooring experts

Our careful attention to detail means your new hardwood floors will not only look beautiful but also stand the test of time.
