CUSTOMER REVIEWS – F.A.Q.s

Professionalism Personified
 — Jim B., Watertown
Jake installed about 700 square feet of 3/4" solid hickory in an old farmhouse restoration we are doing in Watertown. He was professionalism personified! On time, honest and I trusted him. Earning my trust is not easy as I spent 20 years in west coast law enforcement and trust is not easily earned. He finished the job on time and did a beautiful job. When one of the other tradesmen on the job damaged some of the newly installed floor, Jake went out of his way to get there the next day to make the repair. He even found other damaged areas the tradesmen failed to show me and fixed them too, without an up-charge! These guys are the best, my highest recommendation.

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SOLID HARDWOOD, ENGINEERED HARDWOOD, AND LAMINATE?

ASolid wood flooring is exactly that: flooring that is milled from raw lumber, solid through and through.
Engineered wood flooring has a top layer of real wood, but it is a veneer. Under this veneer of real wood is a base that is similar to plywood. It is milled similar to solid wood flooring, but a cross-section reveals its construction more clearly. Laminate flooring is not real wood but rather a man-made product finished to give the appearance of a wood floor.

WHAT IS THE INSTALLATION PROCESS FOR HARDWOOD FLOORING?

AMost solid, 3/4” thick hardwood floors are installed on top of your existing wood sub-floor. We attached the flooring with 2″ long, 16 gauge staples nailed on a 45 degree angle just above the “tongue.” Thinner, engineered hardwood is installed with a smaller staple using the same process. We incorporate the use of an underlay paper when applicable in nail-down installations.

Manufacturer recommended adhesive is used to install hardwood over a concrete sub-floor or occasionally over a wood sub-floor (if adhesive is recommended for the installation of a specific hardwood).
