Transforming Homes with Expert Renovations & Remodels

At DLR Construction, we specialize in transforming older homes into modern, functional spaces while preserving their original charm. From flooring and carpentry to full interior renovations, our team brings craftsmanship, skill, and attention to detail to every project.

In this featured Cleveland project, we refinished the entire hardwood floor, restored the home’s staircase, and tackled the tricky removal of old wallpaper — resulting in a completely refreshed and polished interior.

Scope of Work: floor refinishing, wallpaper removal, carpentry touches

The home’s original hardwood floors had years of wear, scratches, and dull finish. Our team carefully sanded the entire floor to remove imperfections, then applied satin polyurethane for a smooth, durable surface that highlights the natural wood grain. The result is a bright, revitalized foundation that elevates the entire home.

The staircase received the same careful treatment, restoring its natural beauty and matching the newly refinished flooring. Satin poly was applied for durability and a cohesive look that ties the main living areas together.

The old wallpaper presented a significant challenge — it was stubborn and tricky to remove. Our team meticulously stripped the wallpaper, repaired any minor wall imperfections, and prepped the surfaces for a clean finish. This step ensured the walls were ready for paint or future design features and contributed to the home’s polished final appearance.
