Hardwood in Kenmore's bungalows and cape cods

Village of Kenmore streets are lined with homes from the early to mid 1900s, and many have oak flooring that has been under carpet for decades. In living rooms and bedrooms, it is often a pleasant surprise.

We can check a corner and tell you what shape it is in, then lay out your options for refinishing or replacing it.

Handling lake-effect seasons

Buffalo-area winters dry the air out and summers bring humidity, so wood needs room to move. Proper acclimation and expansion gaps keep floors from cupping or opening up.

A boot tray, an entry mat, and a walk-off rug cut down the grit and salt that scratch finishes in January and February.

Solid, engineered, and refinishing

Solid wood suits main floors with a wood subfloor, while engineered planks, including Lauzon engineered lines, are more stable and handle more situations. Our pages on solid hardwood and engineered hardwood go into the differences.

If you already have good floors that just look tired, hardwood refinishing might be all you need.
