The Project Details
The Restoration Journey
This Ford's Colony home in Williamsburg featured wide-plank white oak flooring installed throughout the main living areas, dining room, and hallways. Over time, the original satin finish had worn thin in high-traffic paths, leaving the floors looking dull and uneven — with visible scratches across the dining room and entry.
The Challenge
The homeowners had heard enough horror stories about sanding dust infiltrating furniture, HVAC systems, and cabinetry. Their primary concern was cleanliness — they were also keen to preserve the natural light tone of white oak rather than introduce any amber or yellow cast from an oil-based finish.
The Coastal Solution
We performed a full dustless sand using our Lägler drum sanders connected directly to commercial HEPA vacuums — capturing 97–99% of airborne dust at the source. After sanding to bare wood, we applied a water-based sealer followed by two coats of Bona Traffic HD in a satin sheen. The water-based system kept the white oak's cool, natural tone exactly as the homeowners wanted, with no yellowing and excellent long-term durability.
