I’ve been putting down the engineered hardwood floors in my house recently. I decided to go with the glued down method. And I painted first, but by time we get through dinging everything up, I’ll be painting again. Looks like a nice installation.

one of the things that helps to get the jobs is customer service, we can advise, suggest, explaiin, reason, the end result is give them what they want. somtimes it seems backwards, a challenge, time comsumming, against the grain, the customer is always right. we just do our best and learn from the results.

April 2008 I gutted my first floor, totally. Wanted select or better red oak, but #2 common was delivered. Was mad as a wet hen when I was laying it down . . . but now I simply cannot believe the AWESOME character of the floor! Yes, solid wood flooring is the best, looks great and when you walk on the floor you yourself have laid, nothing better. Good job Tim . . . keep slapping the oak down.
