Continuing the Rich Tradition of Hardwood Floors

Install

We install domestic hardwoods directly from Wisconsin mills, as well as from other areas of the country. We also have an extensive selection of exotic woods from all over the world.

When purchasing flooring, we insist on the highest quality milling, to the tightest tolerances. You can be assured we have done our homework. The flooring material used in your home is top quality.

You won't find a larger selection of wood species in Northeast Wisconsin. In addition to species, we offer many different widths, saw cuts, and grades. You are sure to find something to suit your lifestyle, décor and budget.

Sanding

At Ralph's, we believe starting with the best equipment will help our trained technicians consistently create the best-looking floors. All our sanding crews are equipped with top-of-the line equipment. Great sanding machines, fine-tuning, and timely maintenance gives our technicians a big advantage over our competition, enabling them to create the beautiful finished look only achieved by real craftsman.

We have invested in our customers. We realize sanding your floors can be a very messy job requiring extensive cleanup. We were the first company in NE Wisconsin to offer the Atomic Dust Containment System. This unit removes airborne sanding dust into a powerful, self-contained vacuum system that resides in a trailer outside your home. Now you can have your wood floors refinished without the dust. Less mess...less hassle. For a modest charge, we can utilize the dust containment system for your project.
