Engineered Hardwood Installation Process

When installing Engineered Hardwood floors, we take great pride in our process to ensure you get the highest quality floor possible. We have divided the job into a three-stage process for you that outlines everything that will be done in your home throughout the job and a timeline as well to help clarify everything. Most jobs take 4-5 days to complete, but some bigger or more complex jobs might take longer. We have a prep stage, install stage and a cleanup stage as well. We will be with you every step of the way to make sure you get any questions you have answered and the perfect floor for you.
