Custom Wood Floor Supplier in Titusville, PA
Finding a custom wood floor supplier that actually listens is harder than it should be. Most flooring companies hand you a catalog and call it customization. StoryBook Floors works differently. Based in Titusville, Pennsylvania, we supply hardwood flooring built precisely to your specifications — from species selection and grain pattern to distressing level, stain, and finish. Whether you are supplying your own raw lumber or sourcing material through us, every floor we build is made by hand and approved by you before it ever ships.

What It Means to Be a True Custom Wood Floor Supplier in Titusville, PA
The word "custom" gets used loosely in the flooring industry. At StoryBook Floors, custom means every variable is on the table. Customers can specify species, board width, grade, grain pattern, level of distressing, stain color, and finish type. If a category is not specified, we default to the most cost-effective option in that category — but nothing is locked in until you have approved a physical sample. That sample approval step is our guarantee that your floor will look exactly the way you envisioned it before a single plank leaves our shop.
We supply flooring to homeowners, interior designers, contractors, and builders throughout Pennsylvania and beyond. Whether the project calls for a single room of wide-plank white oak or a full-home installation of custom-stained hickory, our production process scales to meet the order without compromising on the handmade quality that defines our work.
Species, Grade, and Grain:
The Decisions That Define Your Floor
Choosing a custom wood floor starts with species. The most popular options we work with include white oak, red oak, walnut, maple, hickory, cherry, and ash. Each species carries its own character — white oak is prized for its tight grain and neutral tone, walnut for its rich dark hue, hickory for its dramatic natural variation. We help clients understand how each species will read in their space and how it responds to staining and finishing.
Grade determines how much natural character is visible in the final floor. Select grade boards show minimal knots and are ideal for modern, clean interiors. Character grade embraces natural markings, knots, and color variation for a more rustic or organic aesthetic. We source lumber at various grades and can help you select the right one for your project goals and budget.
Grain pattern — whether rift sawn, quarter sawn, or plain sawn — affects both the visual appearance and the structural stability of the floor. Rift and quarter sawn boards show tighter, more linear grain and are more dimensionally stable. Plain sawn boards show the full cathedral grain pattern and are the most common and cost-effective option. We can discuss the tradeoffs with you and produce samples of each to help you decide.

Distressing, Staining, and Finishing Your Custom Floor
Once the boards are milled and graded, the character-building begins. Distressing adds age and texture to new wood — wire brushing opens the grain, hand scraping creates a worn surface, and skip planing mimics the undulating character of antique floors. We can distress to a subtle level that just softens the surface or to a heavy level that creates a fully reclaimed aesthetic.
Staining allows you to shift the natural tone of the wood toward any color direction — warm amber tones, cool grays, deep espresso, or natural whitewash effects. We mix and test stain formulas in-house and can match existing floors, design renderings, or physical samples you provide. Every stain color is applied to your sample board and approved before production begins.
Finishing seals and protects the floor while determining its final sheen level.
We offer matte, satin, semi-gloss, and high-gloss options in both oil-based and water-based formulations. We can also supply raw or prefinished boards depending on whether you prefer site-finishing or want a ready-to-install product.

Frequently Asked Questions —
Custom Wood Floor Supplier
What species of hardwood does StoryBook Floors supply?
We work with a wide range of domestic hardwood species including white oak, red oak, walnut, maple, hickory, cherry, and ash. If you have a species preference not listed here, contact us to discuss availability and sourcing options.
Can I supply my own lumber to be made into flooring?
Yes. We regularly process customer-supplied lumber into finished hardwood flooring. Bring us rough lumber, reclaimed wood, or timber you have harvested and we will mill, dry, distress, stain, and finish it to your specifications.
Will I see a sample before my full order is produced?
Always. We produce a physical sample for your approval before any full production run begins. This applies to every order, regardless of size. You confirm the sample before we proceed.
What customization options are available?
You can specify species, board width, length range, grade, grain pattern (plain sawn, rift sawn, quarter sawn), distressing level, stain color, and finish type. If a category is not specified, we use a cost-effective default that can be changed at any time before production begins.
What is the minimum order size?
Contact us directly to discuss your project scope. We work with both small residential jobs and large-scale commercial installations, and we can provide guidance on what order size makes sense for your specific application.
How long does it take to produce a custom hardwood floor?
Lead times vary based on order complexity, species availability, and current production volume. After your sample is approved and your order is placed, we will provide a firm production and shipping timeline. Contact us early in your project planning to ensure we can meet your schedule.
Do you ship outside of Pennsylvania?
Yes. While we are based in Titusville, PA, we ship custom hardwood flooring nationally. Contact us to discuss shipping logistics and cost estimates for your location.
Can I get flooring supplied at different stages of production?
Yes. We can supply raw tongue-and-groove planks, distressed-only boards, stained-only boards, or fully finished ready-to-install flooring depending on your preference and whether you plan to do additional processing on-site.
How is StoryBook Floors different from a big-box flooring retailer?
Every floor we produce is made by hand to your exact specifications. We are not selling pre-manufactured products from a catalog. We are a small custom manufacturer that works directly with clients to produce flooring that cannot be found anywhere else.
How do I get started with a custom wood floor order?
The best first step is to contact us with your project details — species preference, dimensions, and any style references you have. We will guide you through the specification process and get a sample into your hands as quickly as possible.
