Solid hardwood can be sanded and refinished multiple times over its lifetime, giving you decades of beauty and allowing you to update the stain or sheen as styles evolve.

How much do solid hardwood floors cost to install?

Cost depends on the species, plank width, finish, the square footage of your rooms and the condition of your subfloor. Wide planks and specialty species such as walnut typically differ in price from classic oak strip flooring. Rather than quote a generic number, we measure your space and give you a clear written quote with no hidden fees during a free in-home estimate.

Which hardwood species is best for my home?

It comes down to the look you want and how the room is used. We carry red oak, maple, hickory, walnut and more, each with its own grain, color and character. Our specialists can walk you through samples at our Gaithersburg showroom and help you pair a species, width and stain with your room size, furniture and design plans.

Can solid hardwood go in a basement or kitchen?

Solid hardwood is best suited to above-grade rooms such as living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms and hallways. For basements and installations over concrete slabs, engineered hardwood is the option approved for below-grade use, since its layered core is more dimensionally stable. If you're unsure which fits a particular room, our estimator can look at the space and recommend the right product.

Can solid hardwood floors be refinished?

Yes. Because each plank is milled from a single piece of timber, solid hardwood can be sanded and refinished multiple times over its lifetime. That lets you repair wear and also change the stain color or sheen as your style evolves. We also offer hardwood floor refinishing and restoration services when your floors are ready for a refresh.

Solid hardwood suits homeowners who plan to stay put: families in Olney, Potomac and Bethesda refreshing living rooms, dining rooms and hallways, or Rockville and Gaithersburg buyers replacing worn carpet with genuine wood. Because each plank is a single piece of timber that can be sanded and refinished many times, it is a floor you can restyle with a new stain or sheen years from now instead of replacing.

Choosing species, width and finish is easier in person. At our Gaithersburg showroom on N Frederick Ave you can compare oak, maple, hickory and walnut samples side by side, from narrow strip to wide plank, and see matte, satin and high-gloss finishes under real light. Then our estimator visits your home, checks the subfloor and measures each room so your quote reflects the actual installation, whether you live in Germantown, Silver Spring or up in Frederick.
