Hardwood Flooring Installation

Our Hardwood Installation Process

At VM Power Flooring, we follow a detailed process to ensure your hardwood floor is installed with precision, care, and attention to detail. Every job is unique, and we tailor our approach to your specific space, subfloor condition, and design preferences.

1. Free In-Home Estimate & Consultation

It starts with a free consultation. We visit your home or business, take accurate measurements, assess your subfloor, and discuss your goals, budget, and lifestyle needs. We’ll help you choose the right wood species, plank width, and finish to fit your aesthetic and performance expectations.

2. Material Selection

We work with a wide variety of premium hardwood types, including:

  • Oak (Red & White)

  • Maple

  • Hickory

  • Walnut

  • Cherry

  • Birch

  • Bamboo

  • Exotic hardwoods (upon request)

You can choose between solid hardwood and engineered hardwood, depending on your location and subfloor. Solid hardwood is great for above-grade installations, while engineered wood is ideal for basements or areas with fluctuating humidity.

3. Subfloor Preparation

A proper subfloor is critical for long-lasting hardwood flooring. Before we begin, we inspect and prepare your subfloor—leveling it, cleaning it, and installing moisture barriers or underlayment as needed. This step prevents future issues like squeaking, cupping, or warping.

4. Professional Installation

Our skilled installers then lay each plank with precision. Whether we’re using a nail-down, glue-down, or floating method, we ensure every board is securely placed and properly aligned for a clean, uniform look. We take pride in fine craftsmanship—from tight seams to seamless transitions between rooms.

5. Finishing Touches & Cleanup

After installation, we handle all trim and molding, ensuring the final look is polished and professional. We clean up thoroughly, leaving your space spotless and ready to enjoy.

 

Solid vs. Engineered Hardwood: What’s the Difference?

Understanding the difference between solid and engineered hardwood helps you make the right decision:

Solid Hardwood

  • Made from a single piece of wood

  • Can be sanded and refinished multiple times

  • Best for above-grade rooms (e.g., living rooms, bedrooms)

  • Requires careful moisture control

Engineered Hardwood

  • Constructed from multiple wood layers with a hardwood veneer

  • More resistant to moisture and temperature changes

  • Suitable for basements and concrete subfloors

  • Still offers the look and feel of real wood

Both options come in a range of finishes and styles, and we’ll help you select what works best for your project.

 

Custom Layouts & Design Options

Hardwood flooring doesn’t have to be one-size-fits-all. We offer custom layouts, patterns, and borders to give your floors a distinctive look. Options include:

  • Straight Lay: Classic and clean

  • Diagonal Install: Adds dimension and uniqueness

  • Herringbone or Chevron: Elegant and eye-catching

  • Parquet: Traditional luxury with intricate detail

  • Borders and Inlays: For a truly custom finish

We also offer stair tread installation and hardwood transitions, ensuring a cohesive look throughout your entire home or commercial property.
