How long does hardwood floor installation take in Allen homes?

Most hardwood flooring installation projects in Allen take 3-5 days depending on square footage and subfloor conditions. Day one typically involves subfloor preparation and moisture barrier installation. Days two and three cover the actual hardwood installation. Final sanding and finishing happen on days four and five. You can walk on the floors after 24 hours, but wait 72 hours before moving furniture back. Weather and humidity can affect drying times, especially during Allen’s humid summer months.
Oak, hickory, and maple perform exceptionally well in Allen’s climate because they handle humidity changes without excessive movement. Red and white oak are particularly popular for their durability and grain patterns. Exotic species like Brazilian cherry also work well but require more careful acclimation. Avoid softer woods like pine for high-traffic areas. The key is proper installation with appropriate expansion gaps and moisture barriers, which matter more than wood species for long-term performance in Texas conditions.
If your existing hardwood is solid wood (not engineered) and has at least 1/4 inch of wood above the tongue, refinishing usually makes financial sense. Refinishing costs roughly one-third of new installation and can make 20-year-old floors look brand new. However, if you have extensive water damage, deep gouges throughout, or engineered flooring that’s been refinished before, replacement becomes the better option. A professional assessment can determine your floors’ condition and remaining life expectancy.
Allen’s expansive clay soil creates unique moisture challenges that require specific preparation steps. Every installation includes moisture testing of the subfloor and concrete slabs. Vapor barriers are essential, especially in homes built on slab foundations. Proper ventilation and dehumidification during installation prevent moisture-related problems. The hardwood must acclimate to your home’s specific humidity levels before installation begins. These steps prevent cupping, warping, and gaps that commonly occur when moisture considerations are ignored.
Our installation warranty covers workmanship for one full year, including issues like squeaks, loose boards, or finish problems related to installation quality. Material warranties vary by manufacturer but typically range from 25 years to lifetime for wear-through on prefinished floors. The warranty covers proper installation techniques, subfloor preparation, and finishing work. It doesn’t cover damage from flooding, excessive moisture, or normal wear patterns. You receive written warranty documentation that transfers to new homeowners if you sell within the warranty period.
Hardwood flooring installation in Allen typically ranges from $8-15 per square foot depending on wood species, subfloor conditions, and project complexity. This includes materials, professional installation, finishing, and cleanup. Refinishing existing floors costs $3-5 per square foot. Factors affecting price include subfloor repairs, stairs, custom borders, and premium wood species. You receive detailed written estimates breaking down all costs before work begins. No hidden fees or surprise charges – the estimate reflects your actual project cost.
