How to Refinish Hardwood Floors Like a Pro (Build It With Baird)
Welcome back to another episode of Build It With Baird! In this episode, Steve Stack ventures out of Studio 3B to the job site with Mike Jones of Mike Jones Hardwood Flooring. Watch as Mike shows Steve the process he goes through when refinishing hardwood floors for a client.
Hardwood floor refinishing is a classic home improvement project — especially for new homeowners. In this BIWB, the client bought the home and wanted to upgrade the entire floor. The wood floors between the two rooms had an uneven divider, the floorboards weren’t flush with the fireplace and removing a partial wall left voids in the solid hardwood floors. In this home, the wood floors experienced some water damage and discoloration. Sanding and recoating the floor with a new finish made them even again – both in level and color.
Mike Jones and his team used a floor sander, applied a floor finish with a paintbrush, added a picture frame moulding around the fireplace and installed new floor pieces in the voids. Using a pry bar, they removed the now unnecessary tongue and groove sections. The new wood stain made every square foot of the room look uniform. Always remember to remove excess stain to avoid uneven coating.
There’s more than one reason to sand your floor as a DIY project. Not only can it remove the old finish, but it can also eliminate deep scratches and gouges without buffing every single one (or using wood filler and a putty knife). Before you start, it’s important to wear safety glasses and a dust mask/respirator to protect yourself. You can use an orbital sander, floor buffer or fine grit sandpaper. After you sand the floor, you can apply a top coat of polyurethane finish as a sealer to protect the wood. Depending on your floor, you can use either an oil-based polyurethane or water-based polyurethane.
Watch the process step-by-step:

Reducing Our Carbon Footprint With Sustainable Building Materials
Did you know hardwood products can help reduce your carbon footprint?
Hardwood isn’t just beautiful — it’s one of the most eco-friendly building materials available. In this video, discover how hardwood products can help fight climate change, reduce carbon emissions and promote sustainability — all while adding natural elegance to your home.
Why It’s Important
With air pollution worsening each year, overflowing landfills and other environmental challenges, sustainable choices are more important than ever. While most people know to reduce, reuse and recycle, using natural materials like hardwood can also lower carbon emissions and even reduce energy bills.
Why Hardwood Is a Green Building Material
Proper forest management plays a key role in sustainability. Harvesting older trees prevents the release of carbon dioxide, reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Hardwood products trap this carbon while making room for younger trees to grow, supporting them through their life cycle.
Beyond sustainability, hardwood acts as a natural insulator, improving energy efficiency by using less energy for temperature regulation.
How Baird Brothers Stays Green
At Baird Brothers, we make sustainability a priority. We honor the natural resources we work with by utilizing every part of the raw material – including sawdust, which we burn to fuel our facility and reduce energy consumption. This process is cost-effective and ensures minimal waste and maximum sustainability.
Eco-Friendly Building Tips
The construction industry doesn’t have to rely solely on recycled materials to be eco-friendly. Sustainable construction materials, like natural hardwood, provide insulating properties that reduce energy usage. Incorporating recycled materials, reclaimed wood and cork can also add a sustainable touch, whether you’re home building or commercial building.

NWTF Members Get Once-in-a-Lifetime Cabin Renovation
What happens when a humble outdoorsman becomes the heart of a wildlife conservation movement? This isn’t just a renovation project — it’s a powerful story of purpose, humility and giving back through the great outdoors and the traditions that define our hunting heritage.
Join Baird Brothers Fine Hardwoods and Renovation Hunters as they team up with the National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) for a heartwarming initiative rooted in wildlife conservation and community. In this episode, Hal Shaffer and Steve Stack dive into the story of Ron and Helen, the inspiring couple behind Project Pleasantville — two NWTF members whose dedication to turkey hunting, education and stewardship of natural resources exemplifies the spirit of giving back. As part of their partnership, Renovation Hunters and NWTF launched a unique opportunity where NWTF members could submit their vacation camps for a chance to be professionally renovated—honoring their commitment to the outdoors and enhancing the spaces where their traditions thrive. From mentoring new hunters to welcoming the team to their camp, Ron’s influence extends far beyond the woods, echoing through generations of outdoor lovers.
Through teamwork, humility and a deep respect for wild turkey habitats, this off-grid renovation comes to life. Supported by NWTF chapters and strategic partnerships, the project also highlights the role of fundraising and local outreach in making real, tangible progress in wildlife habitat conservation. Whether it’s prepping for turkey season or celebrating shared outdoor values, this story shows how community-driven efforts create lasting impact.
The National Wildlife Turkey Federation (NWTF) is a leading conservation organization dedicated to the conservation of the wild turkey populations and their natural habitats. Since 1973, NWTF has united hunters, conservationists and land stewards to restore turkey populations and promote responsible wildlife management and outdoor access across North America. Visit NWTF.org for more information.
Renovation Hunters is the first renovation series built around America’s outdoor lifestyle. Hosted by Outdoor Channel’s Hal Shaffer, the show travels the country transforming family cabins and hunting camps for passionate outdoor families. Each episode blends expert renovation with personal storytelling.
📍 Recorded on-site in Pleasantville, PA during the third project of Renovation Hunters Season 3.

Cabin Upgrades: Sentimental, Stunning Design
Can you renovate a space without erasing its soul?
We’ll find out, as lead contractor Kevin Tarkovich sits down with Steve Stack to discuss the third cabin’s renovation for Season 3 of Outdoor Channel’s Renovation Hunters. It’s a project that was as emotional as it was technical!
Kevin breaks down the design decisions that opened up the cabin’s flow—like moving the staircase, vaulting the ceiling and installing new mouldings around larger windows. But beyond the construction, it was about preserving the feeling of the space. From original charm to modern craftsmanship, this episode explores why maintaining sentimental components is key to making a house feel like home—especially when that home is meant to bring families together in the outdoors.
Plus, get an inside look at the premium materials from Baird Brothers, including shiplap, 5-panel doors, mouldings, and the beautiful stair parts that brought the build to life.

NWTF Members Get Once-in-a-Lifetime Cabin Renovation
What happens when a humble outdoorsman becomes the heart of a wildlife conservation movement? This isn’t just a renovation project — it’s a powerful story of purpose, humility and giving back through the great outdoors and the traditions that define our hunting heritage.
Join Baird Brothers Fine Hardwoods and Renovation Hunters as they team up with the National Wild Turkey Federation (NWTF) for a heartwarming initiative rooted in wildlife conservation and community. In this episode, Hal Shaffer and Steve Stack dive into the story of Ron and Helen, the inspiring couple behind Project Pleasantville — two NWTF members whose dedication to turkey hunting, education and stewardship of natural resources exemplifies the spirit of giving back. As part of their partnership, Renovation Hunters and NWTF launched a unique opportunity where NWTF members could submit their vacation camps for a chance to be professionally renovated—honoring their commitment to the outdoors and enhancing the spaces where their traditions thrive. From mentoring new hunters to welcoming the team to their camp, Ron’s influence extends far beyond the woods, echoing through generations of outdoor lovers.
Through teamwork, humility and a deep respect for wild turkey habitats, this off-grid renovation comes to life. Supported by NWTF chapters and strategic partnerships, the project also highlights the role of fundraising and local outreach in making real, tangible progress in wildlife habitat conservation. Whether it’s prepping for turkey season or celebrating shared outdoor values, this story shows how community-driven efforts create lasting impact.
The National Wildlife Turkey Federation (NWTF) is a leading conservation organization dedicated to the conservation of the wild turkey populations and their natural habitats. Since 1973, NWTF has united hunters, conservationists and land stewards to restore turkey populations and promote responsible wildlife management and outdoor access across North America. Visit NWTF.org for more information.
Renovation Hunters is the first renovation series built around America’s outdoor lifestyle. Hosted by Outdoor Channel’s Hal Shaffer, the show travels the country transforming family cabins and hunting camps for passionate outdoor families. Each episode blends expert renovation with personal storytelling.
📍 Recorded on-site in Pleasantville, PA during the third project of Renovation Hunters Season 3.

Cabin Upgrades: Sentimental, Stunning Design
Can you renovate a space without erasing its soul?
We’ll find out, as lead contractor Kevin Tarkovich sits down with Steve Stack to discuss the third cabin’s renovation for Season 3 of Outdoor Channel’s Renovation Hunters. It’s a project that was as emotional as it was technical!

But beyond the construction, it was about preserving the feeling of the space. From original charm to modern craftsmanship, this episode explores why maintaining sentimental components is key to making a house feel like home—especially when that home is meant to bring families together in the outdoors.
Plus, get an inside look at the premium materials from Baird Brothers, including shiplap, 5-panel doors, mouldings, and the beautiful stair parts that brought the build to life.

Getting Internet in the Middle of Nowhere With Dejero (AHA)
Welcome back to another episode of the American Hardwood Advisor! Today, Steve Stack is going to take a back seat to let James Kay and Eric Toenjes from Dejero tell you about the company and how they help bring internet connectivity to job sites, no matter how remote the location.
Dejero’s innovative connectivity solutions are transforming construction job sites by providing reliable internet access and real-time data transfer in remote or temporary locations where traditional infrastructure is unavailable. Using Dejero Smart Blending Technology, Dejero aggregates multiple IP connections—such as LTE, Wi-Fi, broadband, and satellite—into a single, robust "network of networks." This ensures high-quality, uninterrupted connectivity even in challenging environments.
For construction teams, reliable connectivity is critical for coordinating operations, accessing plans, and managing workflows. The Dejero Gateway acts as a network aggregation device, delivering greater bandwidth to enable smooth communication, remote monitoring, and secure data exchange. This functionality supports cloud-based applications, live video streaming for site inspections, and the transfer of large files like blueprints or 3D models. Additionally, real-time data capabilities enhance situational awareness, ensuring that project updates and decisions are made with minimal latency.
Devices such as the Dejero EnGo 3, a mobile video transmitter, are ideal for capturing and transmitting real-time video from job sites. This capability is crucial for project managers, engineers, and stakeholders to monitor progress remotely. Paired with Dejero Control, users can manage and monitor connectivity and devices effortlessly from a centralized platform.

🔨 What You’ll Learn
• Proper site conditions before installation
• The slotted hole method for preventing cracks and splits

• Never use glue or rigid fastening methods
**Failure to follow these steps can lead to warping and splitting**

How Pros Plan for Custom Mouldings: Arched Openings & More
Creating custom archway trim, door casings, and architectural millwork starts long before the mouldings are manufactured. In this video, the team from Baird Brothers Fine Hardwoods visits a custom home jobsite to measure and plan for unique trim profiles that will later be produced as finished hardwood mouldings.
Working alongside Master Plan Homes, the team demonstrates how precise field measurements and 3D printed moulding prototypes help builders, architects, and designers visualize custom trim before it goes into production.
During the visit, the team walks through how they capture key dimensions from the rough framing, determine the center point for the arch radius, and account for drywall thickness so the finished trim fits perfectly. These early measurements help avoid installation issues during renovation and allow the arched entryways to look balanced and uniform from room to room.
The project also includes planning detailed wood trim work in a formal office space. Here, multiple moulding profiles come together, from baseboards and panel mouldings to crown moulding and coffered ceiling details. With architectural renderings as a guide, the team works through how each profile will stack and interact to create a cohesive finished design.
By developing a prototype first, everyone involved in the project can review the scale, proportions, and profile details of the casing or moulding — ensuring the final millwork fits perfectly and matches the architectural vision of the home.
Why Builders Use Millwork Prototypes
Custom mouldings and architectural trim are often one-of-a-kind designs. A prototype allows the builder, architect, or designer to physically review the profile before production, ensuring the final moulding delivers the intended visual impact.
This step helps prevent costly revisions and ensures that arched openings, cased openings, and decorative trim details remain consistent throughout the home.

Install Door Trim with Perfect 45° Miters (Step-by-Step Guide)
When it’s time to trim, a clean 45-degree angle with your miter is arguably the most popular technique. But, getting tight joints starts long before the nail gun comes out. In this video, Steve Stack walks you step-by-step through a proven approach to door trim installation using a classic 3 1⁄4" B112 moulding profile, sharing practical tips that help both pros and DIYers get better results.
You’ll see how to properly measure and mark miters, why a miter stand makes a big difference when handling longer trim pieces, and how starting with the header gives you more flexibility when you get to the legs. The video also covers reveal lines, inside miters, cross-nailing techniques, and when to switch between 18-gauge and 15-gauge nailers for strength without sacrificing finish quality. If you’re working with paint-grade mouldings, you’ll also learn simple finishing steps to make nail holes disappear once the final coat goes on your new trim.
Whether you’re installing door trim in an existing home or finishing out new construction, this quick walkthrough focuses on the small decisions that separate “good enough” trim from professional-looking results.
Here’s What You’ll Learn:
• How to measure and cut accurate 45° miters for door casing
• Why starting with the head casing can improve joint fit
• Tips for keeping reveals consistent along door jambs
• Nail gauge choices for clean, secure installations
• How to prep paint-grade mouldings for a flawless finish
