Where is the best place to purchase hardwood flooring that will also install it?

darci_67 asked:


I’m wondering where the best place to purchase hardwood flooring is. I would like to buy it someplace that also will do the installation as well as take up my old carpet. Do I trust someone like Lowe’s or Home Depot? A furniture store that carries hardwood? I want a good price, but I also want a product that will last and someone putting it in who knows what they are doing. Also, my home is an older home and I have decorated it with a lot of antiques. I want a rustic looking hardwood…nothing real high gloss. Any good websites where I can view different kinds of hardwood? Thanks….=)

Is parquet hardwood flooring not popular or available anymore?

Jane asked:


I’ve been looking online to get some replacement pieces for a chestnut colored hardwood floor and I’m not finding any. I’ve looked at Home depot and Lowe’s, which is where I originally bought the flooring a few years ago and they don’t have the chestnut color. The color is a pretty common color. I’ve only been able to find the light colored parquet flooring. The brand I’m looking for is Bruce. I looked on the Bruce website and can’t find it there either. Help!

My living room is open to my dining room. Right now my livingroom is a warm maple color and the dining room is lenolium. Would it look funny to do a darker bamboo hardwood flooring in the dining room?

Do you think its a good idea to replace hardwood flooring in the bathroom with tile?

niteangel2283 asked:


Ok maybe this is a dumb question but I am remodeling an old house and the owner told me he wanted the hardwood flooring left untouched. However theres an old clawfoot tub in the bathroom and the floors and walls look like they keep getting soaked and I dont want the wall to rot through. What do you suggest I do?
Thanks.
I thought I would add that in exchange for rent we are fixing up this house because the people before us pretty much wrecked everything or neglected it. I just dont know how to let the owner know that the floor is really in bad shape and how to present the fact that he may have to replace it too.

Does anybody sell recovered hardwood flooring from the 1920’s?

June 4th, 2007
dorigen asked:


I would like to match our kitchen flooring with the rest of the hardwood flooring in our new home. The house was built in 1928. I thought that perhaps some business may recover wood flooring from other houses in the same era and then resell it. Anyone know any companies?
