Precision in
every detail
When the finish makes all the difference.
Following the stone, board by board
This project had a very specific detail that mattered to the client. The fireplace was already part of the home, surrounded by stone, and he wanted to install hardwood flooring without losing that original feature.
His request was clear: the flooring needed to follow the exact contour of the stone, with no gaps, no misaligned cuts, and no standard transition solutions.
Each cut was done with care, respecting the unique shape of the fireplace and ensuring a precise fit between the wood and the stone. It required close attention to detail to achieve a clean and seamless finish.
More than just an aesthetic choice, it was something that made a difference in how he experienced the space and enjoyed his home with his family.
The Finished Detail
Scope of Work
A project where every cut had to be exact. The stone could not be modified, so the wood had to follow it perfectly, board by board.
Site Assessment
Detailed measurement of the stone fireplace and full evaluation of the existing subfloor before installation began.
Hardwood Installation
Full hardwood install throughout the room, planned and laid out around the fireplace as the focal point.
Hand-Cut Contour
Each board along the fireplace edge hand-cut on site to follow the exact shape of the natural stone.
Tight Fit Finish
Zero visible gaps between wood and stone. No filler, no transition strips, no shortcuts.
Subfloor Prep
Surface leveled and prepped to ensure consistent height and stability across the entire installation.
Listening First
The plan started with one clear request from the client. Every decision after that protected what mattered to him.
