Splitting or Cracking

It is common for hardwood floors to develop small cracks and splits, even the most careful homeowners. There is always a chance that hardwood floors develop imperfections. Contact our craftsmen today, in Overland Park for a consultation if your floors have a crack or split.

Gapping

Gapping is a flooring condition that is to be blamed on air expansions and contractions. Gapping occurs when hardwood experiences an imbalance in humidity. This imbalance can often be blamed on the seasons changing or a water leak. Totta Hardwoods can handle any gapping issues that your floors may be experiencing, contact us today for a consultation.

Buckling

When flooring experiences extreme moisture, it is possible for the flooring to experience buckling, warping, or even lifting of the floorboards. Our hardwood flooring team repairs buckling in Overland Park.

Cupping

Cupping, which is similar to buckling, is a hardwood flooring condition that appears at the edges of planks when the center of the board sinks while the edges rise up. Cupping like many other hardwood flooring issues is caused by a moisture imbalance. Our team neatly integrates the replacement boards, to solve cupping issues.

Warping

When hardwood flooring warps, it is usually a symptom of a bigger issue. Usually, when we see warped wood it is hardly ever the result of a faulty installation, but rather there are underlying conditions of extreme moisture that need to be handled. It is important that hardwood flooring issues be addressed at the source. Totta Hardwoods is here for you, to fix your warped flooring, in Overland Park.

BUILD YOUR FLOORS

The hardwood floors of our 94 year old lake home were not well cared for until the Totta Hardwood Flooring specialists came to the rescue. They installed new HWF in the renovated kitchen, pieced that floor into the older flooring of the original hearth room, and sanded a neglected bedroom floor. After staining, all those floors look amazing and new! Eventually we will have the Totta specialists redo the remaining wood floors - I can't wait!

Very professional and helpful from the beginning. We had a floor installed and another repaired that was badly damaged — they all look great. The crew was easy and actually fun to work with, as well as prompt and responsive. Well worth what we paid for. Highly recommend.

We were very impressed with the team at Totta. From the bid process through the final walkthrough, these guys were professional and exceeded our expectations. David did a fantastic job on our new stairs and really took the time to get the risers and the new handrails looking perfect. A true craftsman!

We are very happy with Totta Hardwoods. We first met with Mike to share our vision of what we wanted and a few photos. We learned that what we liked was a machine-scraped texture - and that is done before hardwood floors are put into place. But our hardwood floors were installed 10 years ago. Mike developed a plan to mimic what we wanted with hand-scraping. He worked up a sample board for our review with our requested color. Abdel and his crew are master craftsmen who executed that vision perfectly. They were punctual, polite, and professional. Abdel always updated us in the morning, throughout the day, and at the close of each day about what was going to be done, how things were going, and what was done. We knew our floors were in good hands. The end result was spectacular - a one-of-a-kind masterpiece.

No job too small! I had just one piece of flooring that had been installed incorrectly and was delaminating. Totta made the repair in about an hour one afternoon. Josh and Matt were on time, friendly, and did a phenomenal job. When I need more work done, I’ll be calling back!

After reviewing our community Facebook group for hardwood floor companies, I noticed Totta Hardwoods name mentioned multiple times by different people. I went to their website and sent in an inquiry for pricing. I was contacted the next day to set up a survey appointment and a proposal was provided promptly afterwards. The approval was sent in on 11/17/21 and (by our request) the work was completed 1/28/22 as we did not want the project to happen during the holidays. Prior to our project starting, there was a designer and Totta representative that came to the house to review finish colors (by sanding and staining 4 samples on the existing floor). This allowed us several days to look at the samples with different lighting levels and make our decision. Once the project was underway, Alex (the installer) communicated his arrival time and met to locate water shut-off and the breaker panel as well as familiarize himself with the house. We decided to stay with family during our project and Alex communicated his progress regularly. Our project consisted of refinishing existing hardwoods as well as lacing in new hardwood flooring in areas previously covered by carpet (before and after photo of dining room included). For anyone considering a hardwood floor project, I would strongly recommend Totta. It is a family business and they make you feel like your business is important to them.

Totta Hardwoods refinished our floors this year and did an outstanding job. I would HIGHLY recommend them. Mike and Ben Totta are hands on and answered all of my questions with a great level of detail. They are professional and stand by their work. The floors look amazing. They are true craftsmen and take pride in their work . They are professional, knowledgable and have an attention to detail that make them a standout. I trusted the team to be in my house while we were gone and I am happy to say, I am THRILLED with the outcome. I give them 5 stars and highly recommend them. Thanks to Totta Hardwoods for all of your hard work and effort. The floors look amazing! I would use you again in a heartbeat.

FAQS

Recoat - during a recoat, we will lightly abrade the floor before applying a fresh coat of finish. This does not get rid of the color of your floors, but removes most shallow scratches and gives your floors a refreshed look.

Refinishing - during a refinish we will sand down your floors to the raw wood (taking off the coating and stain on your hardwood). We can then add a new texture, stain, and lace your existing hardwood flooring into new hardwood before we finish the floors.

Repairs - Repairs can be done with either of the above, however, the damage sustained to your floors will be dependent on whether a recoat or a refinish will have to be done to the repaired area.

A regular floor cleaning routine will not only remove surface allergens that collect on your floor and contribute to itchy eyes, running nose, and sneezing. It will also remove dirt and debris that can cause damage to your floor’s finish. Download our Floor Maintenance Planner for a simple guide to helping you increase the longevity of your floors and create an overall healthier home environment.

Deep Cleaning should be performed 2-4 times a year to remove dirt and grime build up creating a healthier environment, adding protection to your finish, and saving money.

Maintenance Coat should be reapplied to avoid costly repairs and complete the sand & refinish process.

Refinish your hardwood floors to repair major damage like deep scratches, gouges, discoloration, and fading. Also, a great opportunity to update the look of your floor.

These problems are likely to be caused by low humidity and low moisture in the room, causing the wood to dry out. Regardless of the effort placed in maintaining your hardwood flooring, there is always a chance for hardwood floors to develop small splits or cracks in the surface of the wood.

Most of the time Mother Nature can be the one to blame for this. Wood expands and contracts relative to the humidity in the air as it tries to reach equilibrium. That expansion and contraction will cause the hardwood floors to gap.

We recommend monitoring and maintaining a consistent humidity level in your home as the best way to help prevent some of the season gapping.

The main cause of squeaky floors is movement. There are typically three (3) reasons movement occurs on your floor.

Seasonal Movement - Floors expand and shrink with season change due to a lack of or too much humidity. This expanding and shrinking loosens flooring boards and will cause squeaks between flooring boards or within the fastener and subfloor.
Subfloor Issues - Subfloor issues are common culprits of squeaky floors and should be addressed before the new flooring is installed. Here are some common subfloor issues:
1. Out of level subfloor
2. Spacing between the subfloor and joists
3. Subfloor seams off-center with joists
4. Improper subfloor material.
Fasteners - Improperly fastening a floor is a sure way to cause squeaks. If the flooring is not installed with the proper fastener schedule (spacing between fastener) or the wrong size fastener your floor will loosen and squeak. Over seating, a fastener will also create squeaks when the fastener pushes through the bottom of the board separating it from the subfloor.
