This cute Western Colorado bungalow went through some major renovations. Part of the renovation included Carlisle floors. The customers worked with Wide Plank Specialist, Sarah Bergren, of our Denver, CO showroom.
Check out the before and after photos including Carlisle wide plank White Oak flooring, 6-10" wide and finished with a Rubio treatment.

Do-it-yourselfers on Whidbey Island do a great job with their Carlisle floor
- Posted by
Our Sarah Bergren got a nice note from Diane (and Bob) Billingsley from Whidbey Island, Washington. They ordered a Carlisle floor about one year ago—a 3” to 7” Anitque Oak and, as a cost-saver, they installed the floor themselves and did the final finishing with Tung Oil. Good for them! Here’s the note from customer Diane:
Hi Sarah:
I am not a photographer but these will give you some idea of how beautiful the floor came out in the kitchen. We still have not put the great room floor down or the stairs and landing. Do you think the wood will be ‘acclimatized’ sufficiently? We hope to get it all down within the next month or so….
We went to see a house that is being remodeled here on the island yesterday and one of the gals with us remarked on the floor. It was a simple, tight knot (she said) pine, stained and sealed. The owner said she was disappointed with the floor, that it was not a “Carlisle” but she had to live with it. I didn’t say anything, didn’t want to make her feel any worse, but I was beaming inside and Bob (my husband) and I exchanged a wink. She and her husband are coming over to see our progress next Saturday…
Ciao,
Diane
