Staining

Staining is a process that enhances the natural beauty of your wooden floors, breathing new life into the wood and highlighting its unique grain patterns.

At Kent Wood Flooring, we specialize in using high-quality stains that ensure your floors look vibrant and aesthetically pleasing.

Why choose staining?

Using stains in combination with a protective finish provides significant advantages over simply applying a coloured varnish. 

Our two-stage process offers:

  • Enhanced Color Control: This method allows for greater precision in achieving the desired hue and depth of color for your floors.
  • Durable Protection: The final sealant applied after staining ensures a robust, protective layer on the wood, enhancing its durability and longevity.

Our Staining Options

We provide a diverse range of stain finishes to suit your style preferences:

  • Oil-Based Stains: Rich and deep, these stains penetrate the wood, enhancing the natural grain and offering a timeless look.
  • Odor-Free, Water-Based Pigment Stains: These environmentally friendly options provide vibrant colour without the strong odours associated with traditional stains.

Both types of stains are available in an array of colours, from classic wood tones to modern contemporary shades.

The Staining Process

It’s essential to note that all floors must be sanded before the staining process begins. This step creates a smooth surface and ensures better absorption of the stain. 

Once your floors have been properly sanded, we will apply the stains, followed by a protective lacquer to lock in the colour and provide a durable finish. 

Make an Informed Choice

To assist you in selecting the perfect stain, we will lay down large samples of the chosen colours after sanding. This allows you to see how each shade looks in your own home’s lighting, ensuring that you make the right decision before final application.

At Kent Wood Flooring, we are dedicated to helping you achieve stunning, beautifully stained wood floors that will enhance your living space.
