Kiln dried: All of our lumber and mill products are kiln
dried to provide stability in the wood for
years to come. We carefully monitor moisture
content until we obtain an acceptable level
(This varies with species of wood, but in
general should not exceed 10% in hardwoods
and 15% in Pine and Fir). Only then are our
boards milled into flooring in order to provide
the best possible product for our customer.
Samples: We are pleased to provide samples of our flooring. We choose a random sample of each grade and try to provide also a sampling of some widths. Please note that it
is impossible to get a sample that reflects all variations in character due to the great variety in wood itself. If you would like a sample pack, please send a check for $25.00 to cover postage and handling. Normally samples
are sent UPS Ground. We will also provide custom sample packs. Installation: All our flooring should be installed according
to accepted standard industry practice and/or
our recommendations. It is important with
any wood flooring that it not be laid tight
to the perimeter walls as the wood needs
to be able to "breathe" with seasonal
changes. That is why base shoe is needed
to cover approximately a 3/4" buffer zone. All flooring should be allowed to acclimate
for a minimum of 72 hours prior to installation. DEPOSITS: All our Antique flooring is custom cut to your needs. No
order is confirmed until we receive a 50% deposit! We will notify you when your order is ready
