Historic Hempstead House Restoration
105-year-old Quarter Sawn White Oak parquet floor sanded and finished with 2 coats Dura Seal Special Walnut stain on infield and 2 coats Dura Seal Colonial Maple stain on border, 5 coats Bona Traffic HD Semi-gloss polyurethane.
We were so honored to be asked to restore the floors in the Breakfast Room of the 105-year-old Hempstead House Mansion! The character in these antique floors is amazing! The Sands Point Preserve was built by the Gould family in 1912, then purchased by Guggenheim family, and now is owned by Nassau County, NY. Today, Hempstead House hosts scores of weddings, historical tours, movie filming, and large-scale events. The floors were badly in need of repair, and we were thrilled to help preserve an important part of our NY history! Click to see the Breakfast Room Restoration at the Sands Point Preserve.
