How We Install Your
Hardwood Floors

A proven, detail-oriented process built on 10+ years of hardwood installation experience in Seattle WA.

1
๐Ÿ“‹ Free In-Home Consultation

Our hardwood specialists visit your Seattle home, measure the space, assess existing subfloor conditions, and walk you through species, finish, and installation method options โ€” completely free, with a detailed quote and no pressure.

2
๐Ÿชต Wood Selection & Acclimation

We source your chosen hardwood and deliver it to your home 3โ€“5 days before installation. This acclimation period allows the wood to adjust to your home's humidity and temperature โ€” critical in Seattle's climate to prevent post-installation movement.

3
๐Ÿ”ง Subfloor Preparation

A perfectly level subfloor is the foundation of a flawless hardwood installation. We remove existing flooring, repair any damage, level the subfloor, and ensure moisture readings are within safe parameters before a single plank is laid.

4
๐Ÿ—๏ธ Expert Installation

Our licensed team installs your hardwood with precision โ€” whether nail-down, glue-down, or floating โ€” ensuring tight seams, proper expansion gaps, and a level surface. We take care around transitions, stairs, and thresholds for a seamless finish.

5
โœจ Sanding, Staining & Finishing

For site-finished hardwood, we sand the floor smooth, apply your chosen stain color, then seal it with 2โ€“3 coats of durable finish. We offer oil-based, water-based, and hard-wax oil finish options for a look that's uniquely yours.

6
๐ŸŽ‰ Final Walkthrough & Guarantee

We walk through every inch of your new floors with you to ensure your complete satisfaction. Your installation is backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee and Pacific Floor & Coatings' workmanship warranty.

How long does hardwood floor installation take?
+
Most single-room projects are completed in 1โ€“2 days. Whole-home installations typically take 3โ€“5 days. Site-finished hardwood requires additional dry time for staining and coating โ€” our team provides a precise timeline during your free consultation.
Is hardwood flooring suitable for Seattle's wet climate?
+
Yes, with the right species, finish, and installation method. We recommend engineered hardwood for areas with higher humidity or moisture exposure. Solid hardwood with a proper moisture barrier and correct acclimation period also performs excellently in Seattle homes.
What's the difference between solid and engineered hardwood?
+
Solid hardwood is milled from a single piece of wood and can be refinished many times over decades. Engineered hardwood has a real wood top layer over a plywood core โ€” it's more dimensionally stable in varying humidity, making it a great choice for Seattle's climate and below-grade installations.
Can you refinish my existing hardwood floors?
+
Absolutely. We offer professional hardwood refinishing services throughout Seattle โ€” sanding out scratches and wear, applying your choice of stain color, and sealing with a fresh durable finish. It's one of the most cost-effective home improvements available, restoring your floors to like-new condition.
How do I maintain hardwood floors?
+
Regular sweeping or dry mopping removes dust and grit that can scratch the finish. Use a barely-damp mop with a hardwood-safe cleaner for deeper cleaning. Avoid excessive water, harsh chemicals, and steam mops. Felt pads under furniture legs prevent scratching. We provide full care instructions after every installation.
How much does hardwood flooring installation cost in Seattle?
+
Cost depends on the species, grade, finish type, square footage, and subfloor conditions. We offer transparent, itemized pricing with no hidden fees. Call us at (236) 878 3386 or email us for a free on-site estimate anywhere in Seattle or surrounding areas.
