We also install proper transitions between rooms and different flooring types for a seamless look. Our service includes a final inspection and detailed care instructions to help maintain your new floors’ beauty for years to come.

Choose from traditional nail-down installation methods or modern floating floor systems, depending on your specific needs and subfloor conditions. We handle everything from simple single-room installations to whole-house projects with the same attention to detail and craftsmanship.

Transform your worn or damaged hardwood floors into stunning centerpieces with our professional restoration services.

Wood Species and Styles

Popular Hardwood Varieties

Each hardwood species brings its own unique characteristics to your flooring project, offering different aesthetics, durability levels, and price points. Oak remains one of the most popular choices, with Red Oak providing warm, reddish tones and White Oak offering a more neutral palette with excellent durability. Both varieties resist wear and take stain beautifully.

Maple, known for its exceptional hardness and distinctive grain patterns, is perfect for high-traffic areas and modern interiors. Its light, clean appearance brightens spaces while standing up to daily wear. Brazilian Cherry, or Jatoba, delivers stunning deep red tones that darken beautifully with age, making it a premium choice for luxury homes.

For those seeking eco-friendly options, Bamboo (though technically a grass) offers sustainability and durability comparable to traditional hardwoods. Hickory, the hardest domestic wood, provides outstanding durability with dramatic color variations and distinctive grain patterns that create striking visual interest.

Walnut presents a naturally dark, rich color palette ideal for creating sophisticated spaces, though it’s somewhat softer than oak or maple. For tropical luxury, Mahogany offers incomparable beauty with its straight grain and reddish-brown hues, developing a deeper patina over time.

Each species requires different maintenance approaches and performs differently in various environments, making professional guidance essential in selecting the perfect match for your space and lifestyle.

Design Patterns and Layouts

Hardwood flooring installations offer numerous pattern and design possibilities to create stunning, personalized spaces. The classic straight pattern remains popular for its timeless appeal and versatility, running planks parallel to the longest wall to create an elegant flow. For added visual interest, the diagonal pattern creates a dynamic appearance that can make rooms appear larger.

Herringbone and chevron patterns bring sophistication and European flair to any space, though they require precise installation by skilled craftsmen. These intricate designs can transform ordinary rooms into extraordinary showcases. For unique aesthetics, custom inlays and borders allow homeowners to incorporate decorative elements, company logos, or artistic designs using contrasting wood species or materials.

Parquet patterns, featuring geometric shapes arranged in repeating patterns, offer another distinctive option. From simple basket weave to complex Versailles patterns, these designs add character and historical charm. Whether you prefer traditional or contemporary styles, our experienced installers can execute your vision while ensuring proper installation techniques that maximize the floor’s longevity and performance.

The Installation Process

Pre-Installation Assessment

Before any hardwood flooring installation begins, our experienced technicians conduct a thorough pre-installation assessment of your space. This crucial step ensures optimal results and helps prevent potential issues that could arise during or after installation.

The assessment begins with moisture testing of both the subfloor and the surrounding environment. Using professional-grade moisture meters, we measure humidity levels to determine if additional acclimation time is needed for your new hardwood materials. We also evaluate the subfloor’s condition, checking for structural integrity, levelness, and cleanliness.

Our team examines doorways, transitions between rooms, and height differences between floor surfaces to plan for seamless integration. We’ll identify any potential obstacles such as built-in cabinets, fireplaces, or unusual room configurations that may require special attention during installation.

During this assessment, we also measure and document the room’s dimensions precisely, ensuring accurate material calculations and minimal waste. This thorough evaluation allows us to provide you with a detailed project timeline and accurate cost estimate, while addressing any specific concerns or requirements you may have for your new hardwood floors.

Installation Day

On installation day, our professional team arrives early to prepare the workspace and ensure minimal disruption to your home or business. The process begins with a thorough inspection of the subfloor and final acclimation check of your hardwood materials. Our installers will lay protective coverings on surrounding areas and establish proper ventilation.

The installation follows a systematic approach, starting from the room’s most visible wall and working outward. Each board is carefully placed, ensuring proper spacing and alignment. Specialist tools are used to secure the boards, whether through nailing, gluing, or click-lock systems, depending on your chosen installation method.

Throughout the day, our team maintains clear communication about progress and any specific considerations. While installation times vary based on room size and complexity, most residential projects are completed within one to three days. The final steps include installing trim work, conducting a detailed quality inspection, and providing you with specific care instructions for your new floors.

You can expect our team to clean the work area thoroughly and remove all debris before conducting a final walkthrough with you to ensure your complete satisfaction.

Post-Installation Care

After your new hardwood floors are installed, proper care is essential to maintain their beauty and extend their lifespan. For the first 24 hours, minimize foot traffic and avoid moving furniture across the surface. Keep the room temperature stable between 60-80°F and maintain relative humidity between 35-55%. Wait at least 24 hours before placing area rugs, and use felt pads under furniture legs to prevent scratches. Regular maintenance should include daily sweeping or dust mopping, weekly cleaning with a manufacturer-approved hardwood floor cleaner, and immediate cleanup of spills. Avoid wet mopping or steam cleaning, as excess moisture can damage the wood. Schedule professional deep cleaning annually to keep your floors looking their best and protect your investment.

Long-Term Value

Investing in professional hardwood flooring services can save thousands in long-term repairs while significantly increasing your property’s market value. Quality hardwood floors typically offer a return on investment of 70-80% and can last for generations when properly installed and maintained. Unlike carpet or laminate flooring that needs replacement every 5-10 years, hardwood floors can serve your home for 50+ years.

Most reputable hardwood flooring services provide comprehensive warranties covering both materials and workmanship. These warranties typically range from 25 years to lifetime coverage, protecting your investment against manufacturing defects, installation issues, and structural integrity concerns. Additionally, professional installation ensures proper acclimation of materials and expert craftsmanship, minimizing the risk of common problems like buckling or gapping that often plague DIY installations.

Consider too that well-maintained hardwood floors become more valuable over time, developing a rich patina that adds character and charm to your space. This timeless appeal, combined with durability and warranty protection, makes professional hardwood flooring services a sound long-term investment for any property.

Care and Maintenance Tips

Proper maintenance is crucial for extending the life and preserving the beauty of your hardwood floors. Following these professional care tips can help prevent damage and reduce the need for extensive repairs.

Daily maintenance should include dust mopping with a microfiber mop to remove dirt and debris that can scratch your floors. Avoid using wet mops, as excess water can damage wood flooring. For weekly cleaning, use a vacuum with a bare floor setting or soft brush attachment.

When spills occur, clean them immediately with a slightly damp cloth and dry the area thoroughly. Use cleaning products specifically designed for hardwood floors, avoiding harsh chemicals or oil-based cleaners that can damage the finish.

Place protective pads under furniture legs and use area rugs in high-traffic zones to prevent scratches. Consider implementing a “no shoes” policy or using door mats to minimize dirt and moisture tracked onto the floors.

Maintain consistent indoor humidity levels between 35-55% using humidifiers or dehumidifiers as needed. This helps prevent wood expansion and contraction that can lead to gaps or cupping.

Schedule professional deep cleaning and maintenance at least once a year to assess the floor’s condition and address any emerging issues before they become serious problems. This preventive approach can significantly extend your hardwood floor’s lifespan and maintain its original beauty.
