The Beauty of Real Wood
Nothing compares to the warmth, character, and value that real hardwood brings to a home. Whether you prefer the classic appeal of solid oak or the versatility of wide-plank engineered wood, we provide meticulous installation to ensure your floors last a lifetime.
Proper hardwood installation is about much more than laying planks. It requires precise moisture testing, thorough subfloor preparation, correct acclimation, and expert fitting around corners, doorways, and transitions. Our crews have years of hands-on experience delivering flawless results in homes across Newcastle, Bellevue, and the Greater Seattle area.
What's Included:
- Solid Hardwood: Traditional, long-lasting. Can be sanded and refinished multiple times over decades.
- Engineered Hardwood: Real wood veneer over a stable core. Ideal for wide planks, basements, and over concrete.
- Proper Subfloor Prep: We ensure your subfloor is level, clean, and prepped to prevent squeaks and gaps.
- Old Floor Removal: We tear out and dispose of existing carpet, laminate, or vinyl before installing.
- Trim & Transitions: Baseboards, quarter-round, and T-moldings for a polished, finished look.
