Species, Subfloor, and Method — The Three Decisions

A good install starts with three choices. Species — Oak and white oak handle Georgia's humidity reliably and take any stain; Hickory is the toughest if you have a household that's rough on floors; Maple, Brazilian Cherry, and Walnut serve specific aesthetics. Subfloor — we test for moisture and level before quoting, and reinforce or level any soft spots; older homes almost always need some prep. Method — nail-down for plywood, glue-down for concrete, floating where flexibility matters.

Acclimating the wood in your home for several days before install is non-negotiable — skipping it is the #1 cause of cupping and gaps in year two. After installation, our refinishing service brings the floors back when the finish wears. For moisture-prone areas, see engineered hardwood or luxury vinyl as alternatives.

FAQ

Hardwood Installation FAQs

01What is the best hardwood species for Atlanta's climate?
Oak is the most popular choice for Atlanta homes due to its durability and ability to handle Georgia's humidity swings. Hickory is the hardest domestic option — great for families with kids and pets. Maple, Brazilian Cherry, and Walnut are also excellent choices. During your free estimate, we'll discuss which species best suits your home's traffic patterns, style, and budget.
02How long does hardwood floor installation take?
Most installations take 3-5 days depending on the square footage, pattern complexity, and subfloor conditions. Herringbone and diagonal patterns require additional time. We'll provide a detailed timeline during your free in-home estimate.
03Should I choose solid hardwood or engineered hardwood?
Solid hardwood is ideal for main living areas and can be refinished many times over its lifetime. Engineered hardwood performs better in areas with moisture concerns like basements or over concrete subfloors. We offer both options and can help you decide based on your specific needs.
04What factors affect hardwood installation cost?
Cost depends on the wood species, square footage, pattern complexity, subfloor condition, installation method (nail-down, glue-down, or floating), and whether demolition of existing flooring is needed. We provide free, no-obligation estimates for every project. Call (678) 663-0092 for a same-day quote.
05Do you move furniture before installation?
Yes, we offer furniture moving assistance as part of our installation service. We'll carefully move furniture out of the work area and return it once the installation is complete and the floors are ready.
06How should I prepare my home for hardwood installation?
We recommend removing fragile items, wall decorations, and personal belongings from the work area. The new hardwood should be acclimated in your home for several days before installation — we'll coordinate delivery timing to ensure proper acclimation.
