Will your new floors be hardwood?

Hardwood options for your new flooring

 
Once you decide on hardwood flooring for your home, you’ve only just embarked on your quest for options. Once you decide on the perfect species and stain color, then you’ll get to choose your style of finish. Species is determined by the level of foot traffic in the areas where the flooring will be installed. The more traffic, the harder the species has to be in order to live up to their full lifespan potential. Stain color offers excellent options to match your decor, while your chosen finish can work to withstand lots of everyday wear and tear.

When choosing hardwood flooring, it’s important to remember that it can never be installed below grade. For these spaces, engineered wood flooring or luxury vinyl planks or tiles make a good alternative. Solid wood can react to the temperature changes, moisture, humidity, and dampness in ways that can destroy it quickly, but the alternate materials do not react the same way.

It’s also important to remember that hardwood flooring must be acclimated before the installation period. This allows the wood to reach the same level of humidity as the surrounding environment, which is necessary to keep it from splitting, warping, or cracking. This process can take from 24 to 72 hours.
 
 
 
 
 
 

Hardwood flooring

 
Are you considering the rich, natural look and feel of hardwood flooring for your home? Selecting the perfect wood flooring depends on many factors, including your budget and personal style, how much traffic the room gets, and if it will be installed in a kitchen or basement, where moisture can be a concern. We want you to be thrilled with your new hardwood floors! Let us help you with the “homework” so your flooring investment can be a source of pride and satisfaction for many years to come.

Solid hardwood floors are best suited for low moisture areas of your home with wood subfloor, while engineered hardwood flooring can work well in a basement or over a concrete subfloor. Engineered hardwood is constructed with a thick veneer on top of layers of plywood. Both solid and engineered hardwood flooring are available in a huge variety of wood species, plank widths, and pre-finished colors to coordinate with any style of room. Our expert staff can design and install custom patterns and borders to perfectly fit your unique style.

Do you have hardwood flooring that needs TLC? Our expert staff also does flooring repair and hardwood floor refinishing. Call us today for a complimentary on-site consultation!

Care & maintenance

 
  • Sweep or vacuum hardwood floors regularly. Use the hard floor attachment on your vacuum or turn off the vacuum beater bar to avoid scratching your floors.
  • Wipe up spills promptly. Standing liquid may soak in and cause damage.
  • Don’t wash or wet mop with any water based solution – this could cause swelling, warping, or other damage, and may void the warranty.
  • Use hardwood flooring cleaner. We carry recommended wood care products.
  • Don’t use oil, wax, polish or products with ammonia or vinegar, which can dull the finish.
  • Don’t use abrasive cleaners or sponges – they can scratch your floors.
