What types of hardwood flooring do you offer?
We offer solid hardwood, engineered planks, and exotic species like oak, maple, hickory, cherry, and Brazilian cherry. Options include premium and character-grade finishes.
Can I install hardwood flooring in a basement?
Engineered wood flooring is recommended for basements due to its moisture resistance. Solid hardwood is not advised below ground level due to humidity risks.
How do I maintain my hardwood floors?
Regular sweeping and damp mopping with a microfiber cloth are recommended. Avoid excessive water, use area rugs in high-traffic zones, and refinish every 10–15 years as needed.
What is the Janka hardness rating?
The Janka scale measures wood hardness. For example, oak rates 1290–1360, hickory 1820, and cherry 950–2820. Higher ratings indicate greater durability against dents and scratches.
Do you offer installation services?
We provide tools and guidance for DIY installation. For professional installation, we recommend hiring a local contractor experienced in hardwood flooring.
Can I return unused flooring materials?
