Hardwood floors & painting in Billerica, MA

Billerica's post-war neighborhoods were built over oak strip, and most of it has never had a real refinish. That's a floor we can make look new in a few days.

Billerica grew fastest between the 1950s and the 1970s, and that shows in the neighborhoods around Pinehurst, Nutting Lake, and North Billerica: ranches, capes, and split-levels on quiet streets, almost all with 2 1/4 inch red oak strip under the carpet or under a finish that's gone amber and worn thin in the kitchen and hall. Those floors are the bread and butter of our refinishing work, and they're forgiving: plenty of wear layer, straight grain, and a result that changes the whole house.

The newer subdivisions off Boston Road and near the Chelmsford and Tewksbury lines bring different requests: luxury vinyl plank in finished basements, new hardwood to replace a worn-out floor in a kitchen remodel, and epoxy in attached garages. Billerica is about 30 minutes from our shop in Salem, NH, and once a project starts the crew is there each morning until it's done.

Questions

Billerica questions.

Does LCH Painting & Flooring work in Billerica, MA?

Yes. Billerica is about 30 minutes from our shop in Salem, NH, and we refinish and install hardwood, install luxury vinyl plank, coat garage floors with epoxy, and paint interiors there. There's no travel charge for Massachusetts jobs.

How long does it take to refinish the floors in a Billerica ranch?

A typical ranch with oak through the living room, hall, and bedrooms takes three to four days with a water-based finish, or about a week with oil-based because each coat dries slower. You can walk on the floor in socks the day after the last coat and move furniture back a few days after that.

Can you match new hardwood to my existing oak?

Yes. We lace new red oak into the old floor where a wall came out or a kitchen opened up, then sand and finish the whole area together so the new boards disappear into the old. Matching the width and grade matters, and we'll show you a sample before we start.

Is luxury vinyl plank good for a Billerica basement?

It's the best choice for most basements. LVP handles the humidity swings and the occasional damp spot that would ruin hardwood, it's warm underfoot, and it looks like wood. We prep the slab and install a proper underlayment so it stays flat and quiet.
