Are you looking to sand and refinish hardwood floors in Mamaroneck NY?
It's amazing what a difference refinishing your hardwood flooring can make. Your floors will look brand new and you even have the option to change the color. You can go light, dark, mid tones, or red tones. It can really give your home (or room) a whole new look.
If you have hardwood underneath your carpets, we can restore the beauty of the hardwood underneath. It's amazing what a big difference this can make in your home. And, believe it or not, it is usually less expensive to refinish your floors than to recarpet. Refinishing your wood floors will also improve your home's value and it will be easier to clean and maintain.
At Floor Coverings International, we are a shop at home service. We will bring the "store to your door" so that you can see the flooring and colors in your own home and lighting and color coordinate with your paint colors and decor. When it comes to sanding and refinishing, not only we will help guide you in color selections, but we will also test out a few colors for you on your floor. This is important because every floor is different, so it's best to see what the stain will actually look like on your own floors (rather than a tiny sample).
We offer both the standard refinishing process as well as a dustless sanding system. Dustless sanding costs a bit extra, but many customers feel it's worth it, especially if they have someone with allergies in their household. We offer both oil and water based polyurethane, and we will help you understand the pros and cons on each method.
We are proud of our work, but don't rely on our word...ask our customers! We have won the Angie's list Super Service award 2 years in a row, and you can even check our google reviews online. And, we will gladly provide with a list of over 30 customers to call.
Our estimates are always free. So, when you're ready to refinish your hardwood floors in Mamaroneck NY 10543, call us at 914-937-2950 and let us "bring the store to your door."

Here's the 15th installment of some of my older flooring posts (these are from October - November 2011). At the end of this post I've added links to previous ones , in case you missed them or want to bookmark them.
1. If you're going to sell your home in a few years, now is a great time to upgrade your flooring. Afterall, why should the new buyer get all the benefits?
2. Carpet runners for steps - video - Yes, this is me in the video
3. When installing hardwood flooring, don't underestimate the importance of the subfloor. The flooring is only as good as the subfloor underneath.
4. Water based vs. oild based polyurethane: Which is better for refinishing floors? Some info many homeowners don't know about.

The Council of the Arts and the newly rebuilt Mamaroneck Library have teamed up to host a holiday Arts & Crafts fair tomorrow – Dec. 10th. The Council of the Arts has been making a concerted effort to promote local artists. Their new logo…LOLA (Love Our Local Artists) pretty much says it all. There has been a major outreach to local artists and the response has been amazing – with local artists all vying for a table at this fair.
This is a great way to experience what local artists have to offer and to get to know your community. There are 38 vendors of which over 20 are local. Items for sale will range from the very affordable ($3) to high-end paintings for over $1000. There is literally something for everyone – including the family pet. I’m sure the gift ideas alone will be truly amazing. So come on out tomorrow and enjoy yourselves while you support the arts in your local community. Its also a great way to see the newly refurbished library if you haven’t done so up to now. 5% of the proceeds go to the library to help fund larger events in the future. Parking is free!

I was showing a home in Mamaroneck. 10543 this evening, and low and behold (hey, it is a Sunday) - what a beautiful sunset! The sky was aflame with red and orange hues..... it was simply lovely.
It was really nice after a busy day, to be able to take a moment and to enjoy the vista of the local area... take a deep breath, and as Joe Kenny would say "Life is good!"
Westchester is great!

Mamaroneck NY has been growing in leaps and bounds when it comes to boutiques, fine dining and specialty shops. Among some of the newcomers to the area is Chocolations – located on East Boston Post Rd in Mamaroneck. In fact they just had their first birthday this week!
Congratulations Chocolations and Maria Valente for having a successful first year! I had heard the “buzz” about Chocolations for months - filled with specialty chocolates – it is Westchester’s own chocolate factory. I admit to being more than a tad worried about venturing into such an establishment. We all have our weaknesses. For some its alcohol – for me its chocolate. So it seemed inconceivable that I would manage to leave without gaining at least 10 lbs!
Well – it was well worth the trip. The chocolate creations were very special – almost too special to consume…. which kept my chocolate tooth in check. I was really quite amazed at what I would call chocolate “art” and chocolate “construction”. I did indulge in one espresso truffle which was absolutely marvelous.
Taking photos of chocolate is something of a challenge, but some of these turned out quite well. The photo of the football complete with the “Wilson” logo is really quite special. I came away with the feeling that in the right hands, chocolate could be molded in to just about anything.
While I was there – I happened to walk in a their Friday cupcake decorating and face painting session. The kids were obviously having a wonderful time and it truly is a great activity for kids of all ages to start the weekend off right after school.
The shop itself is open and inviting and you can see the chocolate being made – which is a wonderful treat. You can sit and relax and enjoy a cup of coffee or ice cream as well as baked goos – and of course chocolate.
