Wood Floor Installation

More than forty manufacturers recommend using a N.W.F.A. certified professional! Why trust the installation of your new hardwood flooring to just anyone? Installing a new hardwood floor or matching an existing hardwood floor? Our team of experts will work with you to find the right wood floor that will work best for your home. Whether you are looking for unfinished hardwood flooring or factory finished hardwood flooring we are experienced in the proper installation of both. We take the necessary steps to ensure your new hardwood floors are properly installed.

Best home improvement experience I've ever had

Darin of Elegant Floors is one of the very few people that I can emphatically recommend with absolute confidence.

We had them install and finish 2 1/2" red oak hardwood flooring in our 12' x 30' home office to match the existing floor type throughout the rest of our house. Soon we will be getting him to come back to refinish the rest of the house.

Here are some specifics about why you should choose Elegant Floors:

TRUSTWORTHY:

Darin is a genuinely good guy and you will really enjoy working with him. He is one of the few people you'll ever meet that does things because it's the right thing to do, not because he has to or because you're watching. You'll see what I mean. He's actually one of the most trustworthy people I know.

EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGEABLE:

His knowledge of his craft is unparalleled (and I interviewed several other guys). He truly understands all of the technicalities and actually follows through with them when doing the job.

PROFESSIONAL:

He is there when he says he will be, provides a clearly written quote that exactly spells out the work to be done and specifies the products he will be using. (Be careful with other flooring guys who may hand-wave this step and give you vague pricing and use sub par materials to make the job more profitable). Darin is a straight shooter, his work is meticulously done and he respects your home while he is there. Be sure to listen to any advice he might give you because he knows what he's talking about — for example for us he recommended using the commercial water based clear and going with the integrated in-floor air registers. Great advice.

GREAT VALUE:

You could probably get your floors done a little cheaper by going to someone else who cuts corners and plays that game — but you know the deal — you get what you pay for. Elegant Floors offers the perfect combination: Customer service, professionalism, attention to detail, trustworthiness, and top notch materials all at a very competitive price.

He's the best home improvement choice I've ever made.

Featured Project

Wide Plank White Oak Hardwood Floor Installation

A beautiful hardwood floor starts long before the first board is installed. At Elegant Floors, we believe proper subfloor preparation is the foundation of every successful hardwood flooring project. Here's how we approached this 8-inch wide White Oak installation from start to finish:

Subfloor inspection – checking Advantech plywood for flatness before hardwood installation
Step 01

Inspect & Check Subfloor

We inspected the existing Advantech® plywood and checked for flatness.

Sanding the subfloor with a floor sander to prepare for hardwood installation
Step 02

Sand the Subfloor

We sanded the existing Advantech® plywood to create a clean, smooth surface for maximum adhesion.

Applying Bona R540 moisture barrier primer to subfloor with a roller
Step 03

Apply Moisture Barrier / Primer

We applied one coat of Bona R540 Moisture Barrier/Primer to help protect the flooring from subfloor moisture and improve adhesive performance.

Step 04

Install with Bona Adhesive — Full Trowel, Glue/Nail Assist

We installed the flooring using Bona R851 Wood Floor Adhesive, applied with a full trowel, and secured each board using the glue/nail-assist method for maximum stability and long-term performance.

Install 8" Wide White Oak

We installed 8-inch wide unfinished White Oak hardwood flooring, setting the stage for a custom sand and finish that will last for generations.

Taking the time to properly prepare the subfloor and use premium installation materials helps minimize movement, improve floor stability, and ensures your investment performs beautifully for years to come. At Elegant Floors, we never cut corners — we follow industry best practices and use trusted products to deliver hardwood floors that are built to last.
