Real hardwood work, from room to room

The photo above shows hardwood across a kitchen and adjoining living area, including the transitions between spaces. This is an original Bento’s Group project photo taken during construction; protective coverings and unfinished details remain visible.

Planning a similar update? Tell us which rooms connect, whether you are keeping existing hardwood, and whether new flooring needs to meet the existing boards. We review removal, preparation, installation and finishing as a single project scope.

Floor design ideas for your North Atlanta home

Compare the direction, pattern and contrast you want before choosing a material. Bring photos of your rooms and a favorite example so we can discuss the layout, transitions and preparation together.

Connected rooms, straight boards

A continuous board direction can bring adjoining rooms together. Review existing board widths, doorway transitions and stair finishes before deciding how new flooring will meet old.

Contrasting tile creates a focal point at the entrance. Tile size, diagonal or square orientation, border cuts and grout color all shape the finished layout.

Could a herringbone pattern work in my room?

A herringbone layout creates a repeating angled pattern. Room proportions, the product dimensions, the starting line and perimeter cuts need review before ordering. Patterned installation can require additional cuts, material and labor; confirm these in the written estimate.

Hardwood installation, refinishing and tile flooring

Hardwood installation

For new solid hardwood, the estimate should account for the subfloor, board direction, transitions to adjoining rooms and the finishing scope. If new wood will meet existing hardwood, discuss board width, wood species and the existing finish before materials are ordered.

Hardwood sanding and refinishing

Keeping an existing wood floor may be an option when its condition and remaining wear layer allow it. We review the floor before deciding whether sanding and refinishing or replacement is the appropriate scope. Share photos of worn areas and tell us about any previous refinishing.

Engineered hardwood installation

The product and existing floor determine the installation approach. Include the manufacturer and product name if selected, and tell us whether the rooms are above a wood subfloor, concrete or existing flooring. Preparation and moisture conditions need review before the installation method is agreed.

Tile floors and stairs

Tile projects need a review of the supporting surface, layout and transitions. For stairs, include the number of treads and landings and whether you want refinishing or new treads. Stair work is scoped separately from room square footage.

Commercial flooring: epoxy, terrazzo and vinyl

For commercial projects, send the project city, plans or floor area, intended use and the finish being specified. Our team can coordinate epoxy, terrazzo and commercial vinyl installation according to the project requirements.

Tell us about the existing slab or subfloor, demolition, access restrictions and whether the space must remain operational. Surface preparation, moisture conditions, product selection and work sequencing need review before pricing or scheduling.

Should you refinish hardwood or replace your flooring?

If you like your existing wood floor but its finish is worn, start by asking whether refinishing is possible. Solid hardwood and some engineered floors can be candidates, depending on the remaining wood above the tongue or wear-layer thickness, past sanding and current condition. A site review is needed before choosing the scope.

Can sanding remove dark stains or water damage?

Some marks affect only the finish; others extend into the wood. Sanding cannot be promised to remove deep stains, and damaged boards may need repair or replacement. Tell us about leaks, pet damage or movement and send close-up photos. Moisture sources need to be addressed before the floor is repaired.

What affects the cost of hardwood refinishing or installation?

For refinishing, the rooms, existing finish, repairs, stairs, furniture and access affect the scope. For a new floor, removal, subfloor preparation, the selected product, transitions and molding also matter. Your written estimate should identify the work and exclusions; a square-foot rate alone does not describe the entire project.

Should I buy flooring before requesting an estimate?

You can request an estimate before buying. If a product is already selected, share its name and installation instructions so we can review the installation method, quantities and preparation. Let us confirm the scope before committing to a purchase for an unmeasured project.

What your estimate should cover

Square footage is a starting point. We also review removal, subfloor condition, moisture considerations, installation method, transitions, shoe molding, stairs, furniture moving and disposal. Included work and exclusions are defined in your written estimate.

Preparing for a flooring estimate

Send your city or ZIP code, approximate room sizes, the existing floor type, your preferred material and the timing you have in mind. Photos of doorways, stairs and transitions help us understand the project during follow-up.

Tell us whether the home will be occupied during the work and whether removal, furniture moving or disposal should be included. Project duration and access arrangements are discussed after the scope is reviewed; a request does not reserve an installation date.

Materials and showroom visits

Already selected flooring? Share the product details during follow-up. If you need help exploring materials, request a visit to supplier DDCC FLOOR INC in Duluth. Our team must confirm availability and the appointment before you visit.

Questions before you start

Do I need exact measurements?

An approximate area and the rooms involved are enough to start. Final quantities and installation conditions need review before a final scope is agreed.

Can you coordinate flooring with other work?

Yes. Tell us about planned painting, cabinetry or remodeling so we can discuss the work sequence and protection of finished surfaces.

Discuss your project
