A superior approach when the space allows
Whenever the space allows, site finished hardwood floors are recommended. Site finishing creates a smoother surface, tighter seams, and a finish that performs better over time compared to most prefinished products.
Site finished floors have a uniform surface with no visible bevels or micro-gaps between boards.
Choose from unlimited stain colors and sheen levels to match your vision perfectly.
Professional-grade finishes applied on-site typically outperform factory-applied finishes.
Site finished floors are easier to maintain and refinish in the future.
Hardwood floor installation cost varies based on the specifics of each project. There is no standard hardwood installation price that applies to every home.
When comparing hardwood flooring cost or wood flooring cost, proper installation is the most important factor in long-term value.
