California Wood Floors

CWF has been around the flooring industry for over 20 years, following and creating some of the best trends in our industry. We've stayed in touch with the pulse of our design market whether with materials, design, colors or textures. About 7 years ago we started playing/working with some new, incredible finishes from Europe. Reactive, chemical stains, colored oils and hard wax oils. Nothing in the last 20 years has been as exciting or innovative as this newest chapter in our local market. It's allowed us to draw/pull things from our wood floors that before were impossible, using the natural tannins in the wood, showing the natural grains and making the floors feel and look as natural as possible.

Historically, wood floors have been valued for the rich character they add to a home, and that's still true, but with the wide selection of species and finishes available today, a wood floor has become a key element of design. With so many species, colors, details, and finishes to choose from, it makes good sense to consider the floor design at the start of your project. Our clients often choose a wood species and finish color then tailor the other elements of their home-wall colors, cabinetry, window and door trim-to their floors.

When it comes to finishes, we're always aware of how architecture and light play against a wood floor. We bring out the movement and multiple dimensions of the wood, drawing on years of experience with reactive stains, dyes and finishes. We know how to make wood come alive and often hear from clients that their California Wood Floor is the first thing friends compliment. Our floor finishers are second to none, and we excel in every technique from hand distressing to color matching and custom staining.

A family business since 1985, California Wood Floors built its reputation around two things: fine craftsmanship and our collaborative approach with architects and designers. We're team players who really listen to our clients. Because our company culture is one of mutual respect, integrity and humor, we work and play well together-and with others. There's a harmony people tell us they feel when we're on the job, and that makes for good communication and great outcomes.

Strong, sustainable, and timeless, a custom-made wood floor defines a home. Whether your home inspires a modern or vintage look, we'll help you envision your floors then we'll install and finish them, making the most of the innate character, movement and depth in every piece of wood.
