New white oak upstairs, refinished hardwood downstairs

New 3¼-inch white oak replaced carpet upstairs while the existing hardwood downstairs was sanded and refinished. We planned the board direction, transitions, stain and stair landing together. Bona White and Sand Dune were blended for the selected color, followed by Berger-Seidle GreenStar in satin.

Adding new hardwood alongside existing floors?

New and existing hardwood can often be coordinated, but board width, species, age, natural variation, transitions, and existing conditions all affect the result. We evaluate those details before recommending how the new and existing flooring should come together.

Can new hardwood coordinate with existing floors?
Often, yes. Species, width, age, condition, and finish influence how closely the areas can coordinate.
What should be checked after carpet is removed?
The exposed subfloor, floor heights, transitions, clearances, and board direction are reviewed before installation.
Can installation and refinishing be completed as one project?
Yes, when conditions allow. Planning them together helps coordinate preparation, color, finish, and transitions.
