Restore, don’t replace

When the homeowner of a century home in the Gibson area of Hamilton wanted to change out their original wood floors for something new because they were “too far gone” I said “STOP”! These floors had been neglected and stained and no one thought they could be saved. However, with a lot of elbow grease and a passion for keeping these gorgeous floors they were able to be saved. The home owner and I just love how they turned out!

Classic Beauty

When a wall had to be removed to open this beautiful space, the discussion of what to do about repairing the floors and still keep the inlay was started. We knew that the goal of this classic St. Clair area home in Hamilton was to keep the character that was left, most had been removed during past owners renovations, and add details that would have been used during the time of construction- 1920’s. My amazing husband was able to salvage some matching flooring from other places in the home that would have been otherwise covered up and use it to fill in any space in the wood floor in order to be able to keep these spectacular floors. His inlay work would make the original trades men of the 1920’s proud! Finding matching heat grates to use, antique mirrors, repairing original glass built-ins, penny tiles and stone counters that are of the time period really puts the icing on the cake!
