How to Install Hardwood Floors

For hardwood installation, we highly recommend having professional installers put your floors in. Before installation, we come visit your home to get an accurate and professional measurement. Our installers will prepare the subfloor to make sure it's ready for installation by making sure it is dry, flat, and free of imperfections. We do a moisture test in the room you plan on having your floors installed in. This step is very important because you don't want there to be moisture underneath the hardwood planks, which will cause damage over time.

 

Solid and engineered hardwood floors can be installed in different ways.

 

Solid hardwood can be installed by either nailing or gluing down the planks. Solid hardwood floors have a tendency to shift over time, so with a more permanent installation it will ensure your planks stay right where they belong.

 

Engineered hardwood floors come in floating floor systems. Floating floors allow for a lot of versatility, and do not need any adhesives since the planks click together. The layered construction of engineered hardwood also means the planks are extra stable.

 

 

Where Can Hardwood Be Installed?

Ideally, hardwood performs best is cool, dry environments in your home. Solid hardwood should be installed in places with relatively low traffic like bedrooms, living rooms, and dining rooms. Since engineered hardwood consists of multiple layers, it is more stable and can be installed in more places around your home. Engineered hardwood can handle areas with a lot of traffic like kitchens and hallways. They can even be installed in basements.

 

Be sure to avoid installing hardwood in bathrooms and laundry rooms due to excessive moisture and humidity which can damage wood.
