| After
my floors are installed, should I apply a finish
coat to seal them from moisture getting down in
the cracks? |
|
Most
floors expand and contract with temperature fluctuations,
expanding in the summer, contracting in the winter,
throughout their life. Therefore, sealing of the
joints will only last until the first heating or
cooling season. |
| Where
can I install solid or engineered products? |
|
Solid
products can only be installed on or above the outside
soil line. Engineered flooring can be installed
on, above, and below the soil line. |
| Are
there any rooms in the house where I should not
install hardwood floors? |
|
We do
not recommend hardwood flooring in full bathrooms
that have a shower or bathtub. These rooms have
the potential for standing puddles of water that
can damage wood floors. |
