Floors that actually match the room.

Honest answer: for 80% of Northern Virginia homes, LVP is the smarter choice. It's waterproof, kid/pet/dog proof, looks very convincing, and costs half as much installed. Save real hardwood for formal spaces where you'll enjoy the authenticity.

Sometimes. LVP can go over many existing hard surfaces (tile, old LVP, some hardwood) if they're level and in good shape. Never over carpet. We'll evaluate during the measure — floating over existing saves demo cost but sacrifices 1/4 inch of height.

Reducers (for height difference), T-moldings (same height, different materials), thresholds (doorways). We pick the right piece per transition. Most transitions use the darker material's reducer so it blends into the rug or floor below.

For small patches, we can usually match species and stain well enough that only we can tell. For larger work, we recommend sanding and refinishing the whole floor for a seamless look — we coordinate that with a refinishing specialist.

We'll find it during demo. Small stains we spot-seal and kill odors. Larger damage (rot, mold) we scope as additional repair before laying new flooring over it. We never lay new over known damage.

We can move standard furniture as part of the job. For pianos, pool tables, armoires, or antiques, we recommend you handle those separately. Clear smaller items (books, breakables) yourself before we arrive.
