Re: [Chat] Hardwood floor refinishing
Hello all, A friend is looking for a recommendation for someone who refinishes hardwood floors. Unfortunately, the person who refinished my floors didn't really do a job that I felt was worthy of recommending. Any suggestions from the Charles Village Chat group?

Re: [Chat] Hardwood floor refinishing
We used Lady Baltimore for two floors of our stairs and 3 full rooms on our third floor, and we were very happy with the results. They're fully licensed, were prompt and tidy, and were entirely upfront about what they could and could not do. Phone: 410-833-6106 spud. On Jun 18, 2013, at 9:27 AM, D.

Re: [Chat] Hardwood floor refinishing
Is he related to Bobby Severe? We had our floors done in 2000 when we first bought our place. The company was called Old World Floors. Two other companies we got estimates from said that the floors were too thin and we needed new floors. Like a lot of you, we have red pine/heart pine/georgia pine on our stairs and upper floors, not *hardwood* per se. Bobby was willing to do it but explained that because of the thinness of the tongue in groove there was a risk that in a few spots there might be splitting. In the few places it happened, he glued it down and put some wood putty in the spaces. Also in a couple of spots he took boards out of the closets to repair visible areas and replaced the closet floor with pieces that didn't really match. Nice to work with someone who can come up with creative solutions. Not perfectly pretty but definitely better than new floors everywhere because a few spots were too thin. Also he was one of the few companies back then who offered water based polyurethane (more environmentally friendly) instead of oil based. Anyway a few years ago, I was thinking we could use some help in the high traffic areas and tried to get in touch but first the voicemail was full and the the number was disconnected. Basically, I just dropped the idea because I already knew the other companies just wanted to sell us new floors. -Kathleen Wilsbach On Jun 18, 2013, at 1:08 PM, Maya Kosok may...@gmail.com wrote: We got an estimate from a few places and Lady Baltimore was unwilling to refinish our floors - said they would have to lay down brand new ones (very expensive). Mike Severe ended up giving us a reasonable price and dealing with our beat-up old floors - even replaced about 20 boards throughout and made them match so you can't tell. He is an absolute character, but does great work. Another friend on our block also used him and had great results as well. For the full second story and stairway as well as replacing many boards and other repairs (beyond refinishing) it was somewhere in the neighborhood of $2500 I think... If you google mike severe flooring, you'll find him. -Maya Today's Topics: 1. Re: Hardwood floor refinishing (D. Williams) 2. Re: Hardwood floor refinishing (Josh Fruhlinger) 3.

[Chat] flowers for Charles Village (and compost too)
Hey folks - Just wanted to let you know about a fellow Charles Villager's super local flower delivery business, Flowers on Foot. Laura Beth lives on Guilford Ave. and grows flowers in Baltimore City, makes beautiful bouquets, and delivers them to CV! Check it out if you're interested - http://butterbeefarm.com/about/where-to-buy/flowers-on-foot/ While I'm at it, I'll also mention that another Guilford Ave. resident - Vinnie Bevivino - launched an amazing compost business this past winter. If you need bulk or bagged compost or garden soil, consider supporting a local entrepreneur. (disclaimer - I have no stake in either of these companies, just know that both have great products, and though other CV residents might be interested...) -Maya -- __ Maya Kosok may...@gmail.com ___ Chat mailing list Chat@charlesvillage.info http://charlesvillage.info/mailman/listinfo/chat_charlesvillage.info archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/chat@charlesvillage.info/
