About Us
Refinishing restores the beauty of the wood without the time, cost or hassle of replacing the wood. Our process takes about (depending on square footage) 5 days and brings life to your worn out, tired bar top.
With almost 20 years in refinishing experience, we understand the intricate details to completing your restoration. Your bar top can only be sanded a handful of times, so we use professional sanders and pay careful attention to the grit. To top it all off, we use a 4-part epoxy “high gloss” finish to extend and preserve the life and beauty of your bar top.

Our durable, long lasting affordable finish. This “exclusive” design and application techniques are rarely duplicated, which ensures that your establishment is uniquely like no other.

When your bar top, tables and/or doors are refinished, there are many steps to the process; but the process is only half of the equation. Timing is everything! In order to not impact revenue, we time it perfectly so that when your business closes, we efficiently and methodically work the refinishing process from beginning to end. Typically the entire process takes five days to complete. All of the work can be done while your business is closed i.e. nights, weekends or holidays (provided enough advance notice). When the doors reopen, your customers will simply see your beautifully refinished bar top, tables and/or doors.
The actual process of sanding down your bar top, tables or doors is extremely messy. It can be contained with the proper tools and “know how”. Our steps include not only those, but allowing enough time for thorough cleanup of the surroundings.
After sanding, your surface is stripped down to the raw wood material. If you desire a color other than the natural grain, the staining process occurs next. We only use top of the line oil based stains which provide a deep, rich color. The staining process generally requires overnight to dry.*
Once the stain has dried and cured, we begin the final step. This is a three coat, four-part epoxy which is hand brushed onto the surface. The first coat is applied and requires an overnight drying period.* Coats two and three each also require a night to dry.* After the first coat is dried and has sealed, the bar top/tables/doors are now waterproof. You can reopen for business and the last two coats can be done following nights.
After the process has been completed, through the application of the third coat of epoxy, the refinished surfaces will look beautiful for years to come. And just as importantly, will last for years. Depending on the wear and tear, we highly recommend that the surface gets a maintenance coat every 2nd year in order to maintain the rich, high gloss finish. The maintenance process is extremely affordable due to simply being a re-coat. Very little covering and prep are required. The maintenance process can also be completed overnight while your business is closed.
The high gloss epoxy finish and the on-going maintenance of your bar top, tables and doors will provide a long lasting, vibrant focal point for your bar or restaurant.
* The ideal temperature for stains and epoxy to dry is generally 65-75 degrees.
When a hole or damage occurs on your bar top due to beer tap relocation or other means, we will address the area by matching the existing wood species to create a seamless repair. Once repaired, the bar top refinish process described above is needed in order to achieve the comprehensive solution.
When your restaurant requires a specific style, dimension or species of table, we can accommodate all your building and finishing needs. We will work with you to determine the size you prefer, the color preference and finishing touches to complete your tables.
