Who We Are

Evanston, IL Engineered Hardwood Installation

Illinois basements are standard, and below-grade rooms need engineered rather than solid hardwood over slab. Long heating seasons drop indoor humidity sharply, so seasonal movement upstairs is pronounced.

Stainless Hardwood Co. tests slab moisture and specifies for each level separately across Evanston, IL.

Why Choose Us

Best Engineered Hardwood Installation in Evanston, IL

Below-grade specified separately. A Evanston, IL basement over slab is not the same job as an upstairs bedroom, and quoting them alike is where the problems start. Engineered goes below grade, solid does not, and no price difference changes that.

Seasonal movement explained before you choose, so winter gapping upstairs is expected rather than alarming when it appears in January.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hardwood Floor Installation Services in Evanston, IL

FAQS about Hardwood Floor Installation Services in Evanston, IL

Which hardwood is hardest?

Of the common species, hickory at about 1820 on the Janka scale, then maple at 1450, red oak at 1290 and American cherry at 950. Brazilian cherry is around 2350 and strand-woven bamboo is higher still.

What is acclimation and do I really need it?

Wood needs several days on site at working temperature and humidity before it is fitted. Skip it and the floor cups or gaps within a season. An installer fitting on delivery day is creating a problem you will live with.

Prefinished or site-finished?

Prefinished is faster, cleaner and carries a factory-cured finish that is harder than anything applied on site. Site-finished lets you match an existing floor and gives a seamless surface with no bevels between boards. Both are valid and it depends what matters to you.

Will red oak take a grey stain?

Poorly. Red oak's pink undertone fights grey and white-washed finishes no matter how many coats go on. If that is the colour you want, start with white oak instead.

What is the best hardwood floor for pets?

Choose a harder species and a durable finish. Hickory and maple resist denting considerably better than oak, and American cherry is a poor choice with large dogs. Grit carried in on paws does more damage than claws, so mats at the door matter.
