Can Real Wood Floors install hardwood flooring over concrete?
This is a common question the Real Wood Floors team addresses. Whether hardwood can be installed over concrete depends on several factors, including moisture levels and the type of hardwood selected. Contact us for a consultation to determine the best approach for your specific situation.
What is the difference between solid and engineered hardwood, and which is right for my home?
Solid hardwood is made from a single piece of wood and can be sanded and refinished multiple times. Engineered hardwood has a real wood veneer over a layered core, making it more stable in areas with humidity fluctuations. Real Wood Floors can help you decide which product is best suited to your home's conditions, style, and budget during a free consultation.
How do I choose the right finish for my hardwood floors?
The right wood floor finish depends on factors like your lifestyle, the amount of foot traffic in your home, and your aesthetic preferences. Real Wood Floors' Bona® Certified Craftsmen can walk you through finish options, from matte to satin to gloss, and recommend the best choice for your home.
