Before Installing & Refinishing
Wood Floor Accimilation
Flooring products need to be in your home prior to installation for proper acclimation. This allows your flooring to warm up to your home environment and living conditions. Acclimate any laminate or engineered hardwood for at least 3 days and any solid hardwood for at least 7 days or follow manufacturer acclimation guidelines, whichever is greater. Windows and doors should be closed. Your air conditioning, heating and ventilation systems must be running for about one week prior to the installation date with temperatures between 65°F and 75°F and indoor humidity about 35% to 55%. The installation specialist will complete a moisture test prior to installing all wood flooring.

Site Access & Preparation
Please create a clear path to the project areas for easy delivery of flooring and entry of all necessary equipment. Furniture, appliances, furnishings, valuables and breakable items should be removed from the work site and the path to the work site. Disconnect and remove any electronic equipment. Please note: It is possible for small items or artwork to move or fall during your installation project if not removed beforehand.
