Four tips for hardwood flooring installation

Have you decided that solid hardwood flooring is the best choice for your family? If so, you've already shopped for some fantastic benefits and characteristics.

These floors make an excellent addition to every room, with visuals, durability, and lifespans that meet all your needs. Here are four tips on preparing for the installation that finishes your experience.

1. Never skip acclimation

Acclimation is necessary for a proper hardwood installation, bringing humidity levels in the wood to the same level as the installation environment. Once acclimated, flooring is less likely to warp, crack, or buckle after installation.

2. Ensure access to power outlets

Your wood flooring installation team will need access to power outlets for tools used during the installation. Be sure there is reasonable access in all areas where flooring installation happens.

3. Maintain a regular HVAC setting

Running your HVAC system as you usually would ensure the proper acclimation and prevents future problems. Your technicians can tell you the best range for your products based on your locations.

4. Ask questions if you have them

If you have questions about these products or the installation process, feel free to ask an associate or technician at any time about your wood flooring needs. We are happy to answer them all to ensure your complete satisfaction with our flooring service.
