They were great all the way around in installing our new tile shower. From walking us through the options on tile, grout and trim, to on site evaluation, plumbing coordination and the installation which went just as planned and finished ahead of schedule. Great people to work with.

We purchased carpet for our basement and flooring for the entrance and 1/2 bath in the basement. Working with Madison and Mike was great. We will do more with them next year. It's great to find someone local who does you right.

Working with a locally owned company is important to me. Mike and the whole team made the process very easy. Buying a Michigan made product is right there also. Flooring is awesome! Installers were exceptional, Don and Ron are true craftsmen!
Hardwood Flooring FAQs
Why do my hardwood floors feel dull or scratched even though they’re cleaned regularly?
This often happens when dirt and grit build up or when non-approved cleaners are used. A maintenance review can help determine whether refinishing or replacement is needed.
What’s the difference between solid and engineered hardwood flooring?
Solid hardwood is made from a single piece of wood and can be refinished multiple times. Engineered hardwood uses layered construction for improved stability in moisture or temperature changes.
How long do hardwood floors typically last?
With proper care and the right product selection, hardwood floors can last 50–100 years or more.
Can hardwood flooring be installed in kitchens or entryways?
Yes, when the right construction and finish are selected. Engineered hardwood is often recommended for higher moisture or traffic areas.
Do hardwood floors increase home value?
Many homeowners choose hardwood because it’s a desirable feature that adds long-term value and appeal.
How soon can I walk on my hardwood floors after installation?
Light foot traffic is typically allowed after 24–48 hours, depending on the installation method and materials used.
