Hardwood for river-town homes, old and new

The hardwood we install in Sultan spans a wide range - century-old farmhouses out Sultan Basin Road with original fir underfoot, and newer homes closer to town with more modern subfloors. Each one calls for a different read on species, finish, and moisture before we recommend anything.

We source hardwood from established mills, the same suppliers a larger flooring company would use, so the material itself doesn't change just because there's no retail markup built into what you pay.

Hardwood for river-town homes, old and new

Engineered hardwood for a river valley's damp winters

Being right along the Skykomish, a lot of Sultan properties deal with higher ground moisture and humid winters than homes further from the water. That makes engineered hardwood the safer call in most cases - its stable core resists the cupping and gapping that solid wood can develop when moisture works up through an older subfloor.

For newer homes on a well-sealed slab or a dry crawlspace, solid hardwood is still a solid choice. We measure moisture at the estimate before recommending either, rather than guessing based on the home's age alone.

We also refinish existing hardwood

A good number of the older homes along the Skykomish still have their original hardwood underneath years of wear, a dulled finish, or a different flooring layer from a past remodel. We can sand and refinish it instead of tearing it out, usually for a fraction of what a full replacement costs.

We'll look at the boards honestly during the estimate - if refinishing will hold up well, we'll quote it that way; if it won't, we'll say so.

How the install works

Once you've picked a species and finish, our crew handles tear-out, subfloor prep, acclimating the new hardwood to your home, and the install itself, including trim and transitions.

We protect the rest of the house during the work, haul away the old material, and walk the finished floor with you before we call it done. Most Sultan hardwood jobs run three to five days.

What hardwood costs in Sultan

Engineered hardwood installed typically runs $8-14 per square foot around Sultan, depending on species, plank width, and subfloor prep. Refinishing existing hardwood usually lands around $4-6 per square foot.

Every quote is measured in your home and itemized up front - tear-out, materials, labor, and haul-away shown as one final number.
