Flooring services built around the wood

Three things, done well. We don't install tile or carpet — hardwood and luxury vinyl tile are the whole business.

Hardwood Floor Installation

New solid and engineered hardwood floors, measured, acclimated, and installed to last — in new builds, remodels, and older Northeast Ohio homes.

Hardwood Floor Finishing

Sanding, staining, and durable finish coats that bring out the grain — whether the boards are brand new or have decades of wear on them.

Questions homeowners ask us

What areas do you serve?

We work in Cleveland, across Cuyahoga County, in Akron, and in surrounding communities. If you're close to that area, send your address with your estimate request and we'll confirm.

What flooring services do you offer?

Three services: hardwood floor installation, hardwood floor finishing, and luxury vinyl tile (LVT) installation. We don't install ceramic tile or carpet.

Should I choose hardwood or LVT?

Hardwood is the long-term choice — it can be sanded and finished again as it wears, and it adds real character to older homes. LVT is water-resistant and durable, which makes it a strong fit for kitchens, basements, and high-traffic family spaces. Many homes end up with both, in different rooms.

How long does a flooring project take?

It depends on the square footage, the condition of the subfloor, and whether finish coats need cure time between applications. When we estimate your project, we'll give you a realistic schedule for your specific rooms rather than a one-size-fits-all number.

How do I prepare for installation or finishing?

Rooms need to be cleared of furniture, and finishing work needs airflow and time to cure before the room goes back to normal use. We'll walk you through exactly what to move and when the floor can take foot traffic again before work begins.

How do I get an estimate?

Use the Request an Estimate button anywhere on this page — it opens a short form, and we'll follow up to discuss your project. You can also email us directly.
