Project: Martens
Location: Prescott Lakes, Prescott
Materials: French Oak
Notes: This is a beautiful 7" wide French Oak from the California Classics line, wire-brushed and finished with a low-sheen. This project required extra prep as the house was built on a combination of a concrete slab and a wood subfloor, thus requiring the hardwood floor to be both nailed and glued down. In addition to stairs, the crowning touch is, of course, an exquisite granite and porcelain inlay in the entry, which required a lot of custom work and patience to get to sit perfectly flush and square. It is challenging but fun to take on these extra creative elements in a wood floor and leaves an impression on everyone who walks in that house for many, many years.
"Once in a rare while, you have a opportunity to encounter a great artisan/craftsman!
When we decided to replace carpeting and ceramic tile on our entire main floor living space, Desert Hardwood Flooring was enthusiastically recommended by Ms. Sandy Griffis of YCCA (Yavapai County Contractors Association.)
Owner, Sylvan Incao, of Desert Hardwood Flooring is an extremely detailed and articulate individual who painstakingly measures for precise dimensions with perfect results.
Sylvan and his assistant, Jesse, arrived at the pre-arranged time each morning and before they called it quits for the day, cleaned up both interior and exterior work areas.
To keep our expert workers happy and nourished, each day we provided hot lunches and snacks to replenish all those burnt calories used to install the fabulous wood floors and creative entry way tile insert.

Thank you, Sylvan, for your dedication to your craft as well as being an honest and outstanding professional!!"
