Full Job Description:

Hardwood floors have been around for hundreds of years. The wood that is used to make these floors comes from trees that are native to North America and Europe. This wood has a natural look and feel to it, and can be made into beautiful flooring. It is available in many different types of woods, including oak, pine, mahogany, and maple.

These floors are very durable and can last for many years. They can also be refinished many times over if needed. They can be installed by professionals or by homeowners with some basic tools and supplies.

There are many benefits to using this type of flooring. It is resistant to heat and moisture, so it is not prone to warping or shrinking. It is also very resistant to scratches and stains. These floors are very resistant to mold and mildew, so they do not need to be sealed or painted. The floors are easy to clean and maintain, and will not stain easily. They are resistant to fire and insect damage.

One of the biggest problems with hardwood floors is that they are difficult to install. Because of the weight of the flooring, it needs to be attached to a solid base. A subfloor is usually installed first.
There are many types of subfloors, but all of them must be strong enough to support the weight of the flooring. The subfloor should be installed with a glue that is water resistant. This will help prevent the flooring from being damaged by moisture. The subfloor should be level, smooth, and stable. It should also be free of holes, cracks, or gaps. If any of these problems exist, the floor may not be level, which could cause uneven wear patterns in the flooring.

Once the subfloor is in place, the flooring can be installed. The flooring can be nailed directly onto the subfloor, or it can be attached to the subfloor with a floating floor system. Floors that are nailed directly to the subfloor can be installed faster than those that are attached to a floating floor system.
Floating floor systems allow the flooring to float above the subfloor. This allows the flooring to expand and contract without damaging the subfloor. Floors that are nailed to the subfloor must be anchored to the subfloor with wood screws.

After the flooring is in place, it needs to be finished. This will protect the flooring and make it look more like the real thing. There are many types of finishes that can be used, including oil, latex, and polyurethane. Oil finishes are the most popular finish for hardwood floors. They can be stained or left unfinished. Latex finishes are usually used on parquet floors, while polyurethane finishes are usually used on laminate floors.
