Your Home Deserves Better Than Basic

You’re tired of flooring that looks worn after a few years. You want something that stands up to your family’s daily life while making your home feel more valuable and beautiful.

Quality hardwood flooring installation changes everything. Your floors become a foundation that enhances every room, impresses every guest, and adds real value to your property. No more worrying about scratches, dents, or that cheap look that screams “builder grade.”

When done right, hardwood floors age beautifully instead of just aging. They handle spills better than you’d expect, clean easier than carpet, and give you decades of satisfaction instead of years of regret.

Hardwood Floor Installation Process

No Surprises, No Shortcuts

First, we assess your subfloor and address any issues before installation begins. This step separates professional work from handyman-level installation. If your subfloor isn’t level and stable, your beautiful new floors won’t stay that way.

Next, we acclimate your hardwood to your home’s environment. Texas humidity changes throughout the year, and proper acclimation prevents gaps and buckling later. We install with precision spacing and use the right fasteners for your specific subfloor type.

Finally, we apply finish coats that protect your investment. Multiple thin coats create a more durable surface than thick, rushed applications. We clean thoroughly and walk you through proper maintenance before considering the job complete.

Everything Your Floors Need

Our hardwood flooring services cover new installation, refinishing existing floors, and repairs. We work with solid hardwood, engineered hardwood, and can help you choose the right option for your specific situation and budget.

Installation includes subfloor preparation, proper acclimation, precision installation, and multiple finish coats. We handle the details that matter: transition strips, baseboards, and thorough cleanup. Your home stays as clean as possible throughout the process.

Refinishing services restore worn floors to like-new condition. We sand carefully to preserve wood thickness, repair damaged boards, and apply fresh stain and finish. Often, refinishing costs significantly less than replacement while delivering dramatic results.

How long does hardwood flooring installation take in my home?

Most residential hardwood flooring installations take 3-5 days, depending on square footage and complexity. Day one typically involves subfloor preparation and starting installation. Days two and three focus on completing installation and initial sanding if needed. Days four and five cover staining and applying protective finish coats. We’ll give you a specific timeline during your estimate based on your project’s unique requirements. Weather and humidity can occasionally extend drying times, but we’ll keep you informed of any adjustments needed.

What's the difference between solid and engineered hardwood flooring?

Solid hardwood is cut from a single piece of wood, typically 3/4 inch thick, and can be refinished multiple times over decades. It’s ideal for ground-level installations and offers maximum longevity. Engineered hardwood features a real wood top layer bonded to plywood layers underneath, making it more stable in humid climates like Texas. Engineered can be installed over concrete slabs and in basements where solid wood isn’t recommended. Both look identical once installed, but your home’s specific conditions determine which performs better long-term.

How do I maintain hardwood floors after installation?

Daily maintenance involves sweeping or vacuuming to remove dirt and debris that can scratch the finish. Weekly damp mopping with hardwood-specific cleaners keeps floors looking fresh without damaging the protective coating. Avoid excessive water, steam mops, and household cleaners not designed for hardwood. Place mats at entrances to reduce tracked-in dirt, use furniture pads to prevent scratches, and maintain consistent humidity levels between 30-50%. Most floors need professional refinishing every 7-10 years depending on traffic and care, but proper maintenance significantly extends time between refinishing.

Can you refinish hardwood floors that look severely damaged?

Most hardwood floors can be restored unless they’re worn completely through to the subfloor. Deep scratches, water stains, pet damage, and worn finish typically sand out during professional refinishing. We assess wood thickness before starting – solid hardwood can usually be refinished 6-8 times over its lifetime. Engineered hardwood depends on the thickness of its top wood layer. Severely damaged individual boards can often be replaced and blended seamlessly with surrounding floors. We’ll evaluate your floors honestly and recommend refinishing only when it makes financial and practical sense.

What hardwood species work best in Texas climate?

Oak remains the most popular choice in Texas because it handles humidity changes well and offers excellent durability. Red oak provides prominent grain patterns while white oak offers subtle, consistent grain with superior moisture resistance. Hickory delivers maximum hardness for high-traffic areas but shows more seasonal movement. Maple provides a clean, uniform appearance but requires careful humidity control. We recommend avoiding exotic species that haven’t proven themselves in Texas climate conditions. The key is proper installation and finish application regardless of species – even the best wood fails without professional installation techniques.

How much does hardwood flooring installation cost per square foot?

Hardwood flooring installation typically ranges from $8-15 per square foot installed, depending on wood species, grade, and job complexity. Basic oak installation starts around $8-10 per square foot, while premium species or complex layouts increase costs. This includes materials, labor, basic subfloor preparation, and finish application. Additional costs may include subfloor repairs, furniture moving, or special transition pieces. Refinishing existing floors usually costs $3-5 per square foot. We provide detailed written estimates breaking down all costs so you understand exactly what’s included and can make informed decisions about your investment.
