Custom hardwood and parquet floors in Malibu

Near the beach, floors deal with sand, strong sun and changing air. And sometimes the damage comes from inside the building.

Rebuilding a Versailles parquet after a leak

An event hall in Malibu had water damage from a leaking air conditioner, right in the middle of an expensive Versailles parquet floor. The owners needed the damaged section rebuilt so the hall would look the same as before. Parquet like this is not something you can order off a shelf, so we made every piece ourselves from raw walnut, cut to the exact pattern of the existing panels. After fitting the new pieces we sanded the area and matched the color to the rest of the hall, then buffed and coated the floor so old and new shine the same.

It is slow, careful work, and the kind of job we love.
