Wood Staining & Restoration.

Stained floors, custom library millwork, refinished doors. Specialty work.

What's included

How we run wood staining & restoration projects.

  • Same crew, start to finish. No subcontractors. The hands you meet on day one are the hands holding the brushes on the last day.
  • Premium paints. Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore. We tell you what we're using and why before we open a can.
  • Mountain-weather scheduling. Park City has a paint season. We work it intelligently and won't push you into a window that compromises the finish.
  • Test patches in your light. We brush color samples on the actual wall and let you see them at morning, noon, and evening before committing.
  • Walk-out punch list. You walk the home with us. Anything not right gets fixed before we leave.

Paint we use

Greg and Les are wonderful. They helped refinish our library at our home in Park City and we're thrilled with the results!

I had Different Strokes paint three rooms in my house. They also repaired a few areas on the walls that needed fixed. Their estimate was detailed and very reasonable. I'm very pleased with the work they did.
