FAQ

Hardwood floors offer durability, timeless beauty and easy maintenance. Unlike carpet, they're hypoallergenic and simple to clean. They add significant value to your home and can last for decades, with a wide variety of styles, colors and wood species to suit any design.

Hardwood suits most areas — living rooms, dining rooms and bedrooms. In moisture-prone spaces like bathrooms and basements, engineered hardwood with the right finish is more resistant to humidity. We'll help you choose the best option for each room.

Regularly sweep or vacuum, and use a damp mop with a hardwood-friendly cleaner. Avoid excessive water, place rugs in high-traffic areas, and clean up spills promptly to prevent staining or water damage.

With proper care, solid hardwood can last 50–100 years and be refinished many times. Engineered hardwood typically lasts 20–40 years depending on the wear layer.

We start by assessing your subfloor to ensure it's level and clean. Depending on the material and method, installation takes a few days to a week. Solid hardwood is nailed; engineered can be glued or floated. We walk you through every step.

It depends on your style, foot traffic and budget. Harder species like oak, maple and hickory are ideal for busy homes. Darker stains feel modern; lighter woods feel rustic. Our experts guide you through species, grain and finish.
