Why Locals Choose This Option?

Hardwood is a long-term investment, and the installation process reflects that level of care. We begin by acclimating the wood to your home's humidity and temperature for at least 48 hours, which prevents expansion or contraction after installation. This step is especially important in Grand Rapids, where seasonal humidity shifts can affect natural wood.

Once acclimation is complete, our installers use a moisture meter to verify the subfloor is dry and then secure each plank with a flooring nailer or stapler. The Floor Network, LLC spaces boards to allow for natural movement and installs them perpendicular to floor joists for maximum stability. Most installations take two to four days, depending on the size of the area and whether we're working with solid or engineered hardwood.

We also offer hardwood floor replacement service, which involves removing old flooring, addressing any subfloor damage, and installing new planks that match your existing layout or create an entirely new look. Our work includes precise trimming around doorways, vents, and baseboards to ensure a clean, professional finish.

What's the difference between solid and engineered hardwood?
Solid hardwood is milled from a single piece of wood and can be sanded multiple times. Engineered hardwood has a veneer top layer over plywood, making it more stable in humid or fluctuating climates.

Can hardwood be installed in basements?
Engineered hardwood can be installed in basements if moisture levels are controlled. Solid hardwood is not recommended below grade due to humidity and temperature concerns.

Do you offer prefinished or unfinished hardwood?
We primarily install prefinished hardwood flooring, which comes with a factory-applied finish and is ready to use immediately. This saves time and eliminates the dust and odor of on-site finishing.

How does hardwood handle Michigan winters?
Hardwood expands and contracts with humidity changes, so we leave small gaps around the perimeter during installation. Proper acclimation and humidity control in Grand Rapids homes help prevent warping or gaps.

Your home deserves floors that feel solid underfoot and look better with age. We install hardwood with attention to every detail, from subfloor prep to final trim work, and we source materials that meet your budget and style.
