Why should I choose hardwood floors?

Hardwood floors are a great way to increase the value of your home. They are beautiful and durable, lasting many years of wear and tear. The grain pattern and wood colors will accentuate your home décor, making your home the envy of the neighborhood.

Will hardwood floors make my home cleaner?

Yes, carpet can hold many different allergenic materials and bacteria. During vacuuming, these particles are sent into the air just to re-settle in the carpet. Having hardwood floors, it is easy to sweep away large items such as pet hair and dust bunnies, and then use anti-bacterial cleaner to get the rest!

How long can I expect hardwood floors to last?

With proper care and maintenance, hardwood floors can last a lifetime, whereas carpets need to be replaced every 10 years on average.

What is the most popular wood species for hardwood floors?

Red Oak is the most common wood used for hardwood interiors due to its aesthetically-please grain pattern, along with durability. For gymnasiums, basketball courts, dance floors, etc. maple is recommended because it is a harder wood than oak, which is more durable for commercial applications.

Do the humidity levels need to be controlled for hardwood floors?

Wood is a material that breathes. The humidity in your home should be kept constant at around 45% year round. During the warmer seasons, wood may shrink in a very dry house. Then, when the humidity levels go up, the wood will stretch, causing warpage. This can also work in reverse, going from high humidity to low humidity environments.
