Goddard Floor Specialists has over 90 years' experience in the wood flooring industry. Our family history began in Waltham, MA with my uncle Roy Goddard. My dad Vern learned the trade and I learned from my dad. I carried on the family tradition of installing and refinishing wood floors. I eventually purchased the business in the late 80's. With much hard work and a knowledgeable dedicated staff, we have become one of the largest wood flooring companies in New England. Quality and consistency are key to maintaining a great product.
As with any floor covering material, a few moments of care and a little common sense can go a long way in keeping your new hardwood floor looking its best. If your floor abuts exterior doors, put outside doormats at the entrances to keep dirt and moisture from being tracked into your hardwood floor. Sweep or vacuum floors as often as required to remove loose dirt or grit before it can scratch the surface of the floor. High traffic areas such as kitchens, hallways, and stairs should be periodically recoated to maintain the protection of wood and to avoid further sanding.
