Revival Flooring has taken the on-site finishing route. With on-site finishing, we are able to have more control over the appearance desired by the client. We are able to control the specie, colour, sheen level, finishing style, and board sizing. With control over these variables, the possibilities are endless and we are able to create floors specific to our clients needs and wants. Please contact us with questions you have.
