Custom Hardwood Staining

Stain Matching for Refinishing and Repairs

When you're refinishing existing floors and want to keep them close to their current color—or when you're repairing a section that needs to blend invisibly with the rest of the floor—stain matching becomes the most important part of the job. We mix and test stains on your actual wood under your actual lighting to find the right match, because color reads differently on different woods and in different rooms. Our customers regularly mention how seamless our blending work is, with new wood disappearing into old in a way that's genuinely impressive.

Custom Colors for New Installations and Refinishing

If you're starting fresh or completely changing the look of your floors, custom staining opens up nearly limitless possibilities. We can take floors lighter, darker, or in entirely different directions—warm reds, cool grays, deep walnut tones, or natural matte looks that let the wood's character show through. We'll guide you through samples and stain tests on your actual floor so you can see how the color reads in your home before we commit. No surprises, no guessing—just floors that match the look you've been picturing.

From Business Owner Tim Jones:

• "Choosing a stain color is one of the most personal parts of a hardwood project. We try to make it as easy as possible by offering both standard and custom-blended options, showing you tested colors on your own wood, and giving honest feedback based on years of seeing how colors age and live in real homes. Some shades that look stunning in a sample look very different across an entire floor—our experience helps you avoid those surprises.
• Stain quality affects more than appearance—it also influences how the finish bonds, how the floor weathers over time, and how well future repairs can be matched. We use quality stain products and proven application methods, and we take time to properly prep the wood so the stain absorbs evenly. A rushed staining job almost always shows; we'd rather take the time to do it right.
• If you're planning a hardwood project and want a custom stain color or expert stain matching, call A Team Hardwoods Construction at (425) 293-2098.
