Hardwood Flooring Services

Complete Flooring Solutions

Our hardwood flooring services cover everything from new installation to refinishing existing floors that need a fresh start. We work with solid hardwood, engineered wood, and can help you choose the right species for your Lucas home’s specific conditions and your family’s lifestyle.

Refinishing services include professional sanding with dust-free equipment, stain application, and protective finish coats that restore your floors to like-new condition. This process typically costs a fraction of replacement while extending your floor’s life by years.

We also handle repairs for damaged boards, squeaky floor fixes, and moisture-related issues that can develop over time. Every project includes proper cleanup and disposal of old materials, so you’re not left dealing with the aftermath of construction debris.

How long does hardwood floor installation take in Lucas homes?

Most hardwood flooring installations in Lucas homes take 2-4 days depending on the square footage and complexity of the layout. We factor in time for proper wood acclimation, which is crucial in Texas climate conditions. The process includes subfloor prep on day one, installation over the next 1-2 days, and final finishing work. We provide a realistic timeline upfront and keep you informed of progress throughout the project. Weather and humidity can occasionally affect drying times for finishes, but we plan for these variables when scheduling your installation.

What's the difference between solid and engineered hardwood for Texas homes?

Solid hardwood is exactly what it sounds like – planks cut from a single piece of wood that can be sanded and refinished multiple times over decades. Engineered hardwood has a real wood top layer over a plywood base, making it more stable in humidity changes common in Texas. For Lucas homes with concrete slabs, engineered is often the better choice due to moisture considerations. Solid hardwood works great over wooden subfloors and in upper levels. Both options look identical once installed, but the choice depends on your specific home’s construction and the room’s conditions.

How do I know if my existing hardwood floors can be refinished?

Most solid hardwood floors can be refinished 3-5 times during their lifetime, depending on the thickness of the wood and how much material needs to be removed. We check the current thickness, look for deep scratches or stains that require aggressive sanding, and assess the overall condition of the boards. If your floors have been refinished multiple times already, or if there are widespread structural issues like loose boards or subfloor damage, replacement might be more cost-effective. We’ll give you an honest assessment and explain your options without pushing you toward the more expensive choice.

What should I expect to pay for hardwood flooring installation in Lucas?

Hardwood flooring costs in Lucas typically range from $8-15 per square foot installed, depending on the wood species, grade, and complexity of the installation. Higher-end exotic woods or intricate patterns cost more, while standard oak or maple installations fall on the lower end. This includes materials, professional installation, and basic trim work. Additional costs might include subfloor repairs, moisture barriers, or custom transitions between rooms. We provide detailed written estimates that break down all costs upfront, so you know exactly what you’re paying for without surprise charges later.

How do I maintain hardwood floors in Texas humidity?

Texas humidity swings can cause hardwood floors to expand and contract, leading to gaps or cupping if not properly managed. Keep your home’s humidity between 30-50% year-round using your HVAC system and a humidifier or dehumidifier as needed. Clean spills immediately and use appropriate hardwood floor cleaners – never wet mop or use harsh chemicals. Place mats at entrances to reduce dirt and moisture tracked in from outside. Reapply protective finish every 3-5 years depending on traffic. We provide specific care instructions based on your floor’s finish and wood species.

Can you install hardwood flooring over concrete slabs?

Yes, but it requires specific techniques and materials to handle moisture issues common with concrete slabs in Texas. We typically recommend engineered hardwood for slab installations because it’s more dimensionally stable than solid wood. The process includes moisture testing the concrete, installing proper vapor barriers, and using appropriate adhesives or floating installation methods. Some solid hardwood can be installed over concrete with the right subfloor preparation, but engineered wood generally performs better long-term. We’ll assess your specific slab conditions and recommend the best approach for lasting results.
