The great benefits and options you'll get in hardwood
The amazing length of lifespan is one of the first things that people think about when hardwood flooring is mentioned, and why not? It’s easily going to last an average of 100 years or so with proper care and maintenance and it’s been known to last even longer in certain situations. This lifespan gives you ample time to enjoy the many benefits you’ll gain from having it installed in your own home.
This hard, durable floor covering allows you to customize it to a certain degree, with amazing amazing hardwood selections, color options, and special finish types. Species choice should be determined by your levels of in-house foot traffic, making sure that harder species are in place where there are higher levels of traffic. This assures that your flooring will not prematurely wear out and that you’ll be able to experience all the lifespan it was meant to give you.
Hardwood should never be installed below grade, only on and above grade installations are recommended. It should also be given roughly 24 to 72 hours to acclimate to your specific environment before installation begins.
