Elder Flooring LLC
Elder kneeling beside a partly sanded oak floor in a Raleigh home

Owner-operated · 11 years in the Triangle

I am on the job. Every job.

I started sanding floors in the Triangle eleven years ago and never handed the machine to anyone else. When you hire Elder Flooring, I am the person who measures your rooms, mixes your stain, runs the sander, and walks the floor with you at the end.

The work I am proudest of is the work you cannot see. Brazilian redwood blended into red oak so the seam vanished. A curved handrail laminated and bent to a stair nobody else would quote. A water stain a family had lived with for six years, gone in three days.

The number on the estimate is the number on the invoice. No hidden charges, no change orders without your approval in writing.
