Before Your Hardwood Installation
Knowing what to expect ahead of your hardwood installation can help make for a more streamlined and smooth process.
Prior to your hardwood installation, a member of our crew will walk you through the entire process, answering any questions that you might have and giving you a general timeline of what to expect and when to expect it. This is a good time for you to ask any questions that you might have, discuss the timetable, and so on.
Before installation, it is a good idea to complete any painting tasks that might need to be done too.
On installation day itself, we ask that you remove any furniture from the room(s) where the installation is set to take place. Pets and children should also vacate where the hardwood installation will take place.
From there, we will begin your hardwood installation.
During & After Your Hardwood Installation
For hardwood, there are two basic methods of installation; they are glue-down and nail-down.
For a glue-down hardwood installation, the general process involves spreading adhesives on your subflooring and laying the hardwood planks individually. Your crew will cut the hardwood pieces to fit the layout of the room while ensuring that no gaps exist at the culmination of the job
For a nail-down hardwood installation, a similar process will be followed as the glue-down installation, but instead, the crew will use nails instead of adhesive.
With each method will come a distinct timeline for completion. Once our crew is finished, you are free to enjoy your hardwood flooring.
