Solid and Engineered Hardwood
Solid hardwood is milled from a single piece of wood and can be refinished many times over its life. Engineered hardwood has a real wood wear layer over a stable plywood or fiberboard core, which handles Idaho’s dry winters and seasonal humidity swings better and can go in more rooms of the house. We install both, help you pick the right construction and species for your home, and install to the manufacturer’s spec so your floor stays flat, tight, and quiet.
Acclimation and Moisture Testing
Wood moves with moisture, so acclimation is not optional. We deliver the flooring ahead of install day and let it acclimate inside your home, in the rooms where it will be installed, until it reaches equilibrium with the house. Before a single board goes down, we moisture-test both the wood and the subfloor and check that levels are within the manufacturer’s range. Skipping this step is how hardwood ends up cupping, gapping, or squeaking, and it is a step we never skip.
Our Installation Process
- Measure: We measure free, check the subfloor and moisture conditions, and give you an itemized quote.
- Acclimate: The wood acclimates in your home while we confirm moisture levels are in range.
- Prep: We remove old flooring as needed, then clean, level, and flatten the subfloor and lay the right underlayment or moisture barrier.
- Install: We nail, glue, or float the floor per the product spec, with proper expansion gaps and careful cuts around cabinets, islands, and doorways.
- Trim and transitions: We finish with baseboards, quarter round, stair nosing, and transitions so the floor looks built-in, not added on.
Hardwood Installation Pricing and Timing
Hardwood installation labor runs $3.50 to $5.50 per sq ft depending on the product, install method, and prep needed. Most hardwood projects take 2 to 5 days, not counting acclimation time before install day. Your free quote is itemized, so labor, materials, and trim are all clear before we start.
