So, you’ve decided to install natural hardwood flooring – now what? Did you know that the species of wood you choose will help determine your new floor’s overall hardness and performance, as well as its grain patterns? Whether you prefer the classical looks of oak or hickory or the luxurious sparkle of exotic mahogany, there are many looks to choose from.
Contrary to widespread belief, engineered hardwood flooring is made of real wood. These planks have up to seven layers of wood veneers and a surface layer of premium wood. Layering prevents the wood from expanding or contracting from humidity. It also creates stability to handle daily activity. In certain cases, engineered planks can sanded and refinished to extend their lifetime. Engineered hardwood flooring can be installed on all levels of your home, including in finished basements.
Solid hardwood flooring is the original hardwood option. The simple construction allows the natural characteristics of the planks to stand out. Solid hardwood is beautiful and can help to add real estate value to your home, but it is limited in where you can install it. It’s best reserved for dry, cool areas that don’t see significant foot traffic.Where Can I Install A Hardwood Floor?
The decision to install hardwood flooring represents a significant upfront investment. It will grace your space for generations . Hardwood flooring is usually unsuitable for kitchens or bathrooms since moistened floorboards will warp over time. Engineered hardwood offers up great peace of mind in more active settings. It can be installed below grade and is significantly more forgiving than its traditional counterpart.
Before our professional installers arrive, it’s good to be prepared and know what to expect. It’s a messy process and dust is to be expected. To minimize the mess, we recommend starting with a clean slate, down to your pristine subfloor. Remove small, fragile items if possible. Tape cabinet doors and drawers shut. In turn, we’ll do our part to manage the dust clouds, completing your room piece-by-piece, and treating your home with utmost care.
