Installation Advice
It is critical that installation conditions are correct prior to beginning the installation of solid wood flooring.
The moisture content of the wood sub-floor or concrete slab should be tested upon delivery of the material to the jobsite, especially in new construction.
We recommend that the moisture conditions are noted on the delivery paperwork. Material should always be acclimated to the jobsite prior to installation;
we recommend a minimum of 10 days, but areas with high humidity or low humidity will require longer equalization times. The jobsite should also be held at
a consistent humidity and temperature during acclimation and installation. Never install hardwood flooring prior to installing a fully functional HVAC system
and sealing up the building. Wood flooring will move very slightly with variations in temperature and this will often cause popping or cracking sounds.
