Arne’s Floor Sanding LLC

Minneapolis floor sanding has been a tradition in my family for over 25 years. As a kid I worked with my Dad, Bruce Johansson founder of Sandman Floors based out of Chanhassen. I worked with him in the summers during high school and college and learned the basics of hardwood floor mechanics. Read the rest

We got another good picture of hardwood floors we sanded a couple years ago.  I really like this picture because of the wide angel.  I remember when this living room was really nasty.  We actually remodeled the whole house.   Read the rest

We installed and refinished these Glendale floors three years ago.  They had douglas fur in the kitchen.  But they just didn’t look that good.  So we went right over them with 1.5 inch red oak.  This house is a rental property and for the most part the renters have kept good care of it.

I remember refinishing these oak hardwood floors in Los Angeles because they had that gas fireplace on the wall.  You don’t see that too often.  But as you can see they cleaned up pretty well. Read the rest

Maple Hardwood Floors before they get sanded

Stain Finish Oak Hardwood Floors

I think this is a cool picture.  I remember doing these Los Angeles oak floors.  They were very un level and I had to go back and spot sand a bunch of low spots in the floor after we did the body cuts.  That is probably one of the most frustrating aspect of sanding a floor because it take a lot of extra time and its a pain in the butt to go back and do it.

Oak Hardwood Floors Duplex Glendale

We did this duplex a few weeks ago.  Its oak floors like usual.  I love sanding oak.  As long as I got enough floor to sand, there are not a bunch of urine stains or water damage and the floors aren’t too unlevel, then they will look beautiful when we are done.  This was a duplex the owner was renting out.
