Hardwood Floor Refinishing in Scanlon, MN
Scanlon sits directly alongside Cloquet on the St. Louis River, a small mill town that grew around the same industry. Its housing is compact, largely early twentieth century, and built for mill families rather than for display.
Floors follow the pattern of every working town in this region: narrow plain oak where it would be seen, Douglas fir where it would not, laid when the houses went up and covered over at some point in the mid-century decades. Most Scanlon jobs start with pulling carpet rather than with sanding.
What comes up is usually in better shape than the owner expects. Carpet shields wood from sunlight and traffic, so a floor that has been covered since the 1970s often reads better than the exposed boards in the next room. The damage is tack strip and staple holes around the edges, and those fill and vanish under a refinish.
Because Scanlon is next door to Cloquet we schedule the two together, which usually means we can get to a Scanlon job sooner than the distance from Duluth would suggest.
