Hardwood Flooring in Saint Louisville, OH
Hardwood is the floor people keep.

Test the subfloor before the wood arrives
A wood floor fails in one of two ways: it cups because it took on moisture from below, or it gaps because it was installed wetter than the house will ever be again. Both are moisture problems and both are predictable with a meter.
We test the subfloor and the wood, and we want the difference between them inside the manufacturer's tolerance before a single board is fastened. In a central Ohio house that usually means letting the material sit in the room for several days with the heating or cooling running as it normally would.
Flat, dry, sound
The subfloor has to be flat within tolerance, properly fastened, and free of movement. Loose panels get screwed down, squeaks get chased to their source, and dips get leveled. A hardwood floor over a subfloor that flexes will develop hollow spots and creaks that are impossible to reach once the wood is over them.
Existing flooring comes out and the deck gets cleaned properly first. It is unglamorous and it is the reason a floor is still quiet in year ten.
Built for Saint Louisville homes.
St. Louisville was platted in 1839 on the North Fork of the Licking River, and at 352 residents in the 2020 census it is the smallest place on our list. A quarter of a square mile, a few streets, and houses that have mostly been standing since the nineteenth or early twentieth century. Ten miles north of us, and small enough that we can usually do a whole house in one visit.
We will tell you when that original floor is worth keeping. Refinishing is not work we do, but covering something salvageable without mentioning it is not how we would want to be dealt with, so you get the information and the decision is yours.
We are about twenty minutes away, which makes both the appointment and any follow-up simple.
