The nuances of solid hardwood installation
Solid hardwood flooring, crafted from a single piece of genuine wood, offers unparalleled warmth and character. However, its installation demands precise care and attention to detail.
- Subfloor Preparation: Our meticulous approach begins with a thorough evaluation of your existing subfloor. We ensure a level, clean, and moisture-controlled surface to provide a solid foundation for your new flooring.
- Acclimation Process: Solid hardwood is naturally susceptible to environmental changes. We meticulously acclimate the wood planks to your home's temperature and humidity levels before installation, minimizing the risk of warping or gapping after installation.
- Nail-Down Installation: Our experienced installers utilize a time-tested nail-down technique, securing the solid hardwood planks directly to the subfloor for exceptional stability and longevity.
- Sanding and Finishing (Optional): For a custom touch, we offer on-site sanding and finishing services, allowing you to personalize the look and feel of your solid hardwood floor.
Maintenance tips for solid hardwood floors
To maintain the pristine condition of your solid hardwood floors, we recommend the following practices:
- Regularly sweep or vacuum using a soft brush attachment to remove dust and debris.
- Promptly clean up spills to prevent moisture damage.
- Use appropriate cleaning products specifically formulated for hardwood floors.
- Maintain consistent humidity levels within your home.
Versatile choice of engineered hardwood installation
Engineered hardwood flooring boasts the undeniable charm of real wood with exceptional stability and moisture resistance.
- Subfloor Preparation: Similar to solid hardwood, we ensure your subfloor is perfectly level, clean, and dry before proceeding with installation.
- Click-Lock or Glue-Down Installation: Depending on the specific type of engineered flooring you choose, our team will expertly utilize either the click-lock system or a high-quality adhesive for a seamless and secure installation.
- Floating Installation (Optional): Engineered hardwood offers the advantage of a floating installation, where the planks are secured together without being directly attached to the subfloor. This method is ideal for basements or areas with potential moisture fluctuations.
Engineered hardwood: unmatched versatility for modern living
Engineered hardwood provides numerous benefits for today's active lifestyles:
- Superior Moisture Resistance: Engineered hardwood's layered construction makes it more resistant to moisture compared to solid hardwood, allowing for installation in areas with moderate humidity levels.
- Wider Plank Options: Engineered hardwood construction allows for wider planks, creating a more expansive and luxurious feel in your living space.
- Easy Maintenance: Engineered hardwood floors are generally easier to maintain than solid hardwood, as they often come pre-finished with a durable and easy-to-clean wear layer.
