Hardwood flooring facts you should know
It’s very important to remember that solid hardwood flooring can never be installed in spaces that are below grade, such as basements. For spaces such as these, our flooring professionals can help you choose a suitable option that will perfectly serve your needs. Great alternatives include engineered flooring and luxury vinyl flooring.
Another important fact is that these floors take time to acclimate to your specific environment with regards to humidity and moisture levels. Depending on your own unique environment, this can take between 24 and 72 hours prior to installation. Once acclimated, you needn’t worry about the appearance of gaps between boards, or your flooring drawing away from the walls.
One of the most important choices you’ll make is which specific wood species works best for your home. Rated from very soft to very hard, the harder species work best for busy, active spaces in your home, like kitchens and living rooms. Private areas such as bedrooms and studies can often make use of softer woods, though your flooring professional can offer specific advice according to your own needs.
Most of all make sure you speak to your flooring specialist about the necessity of professional installation for your hardwood flooring.
