Hardwood Floor Installation
Solid and engineered hardwood installed over properly prepared subfloors, with clean transitions to the rooms around it
How much does hardwood floor installation cost in Atlanta?
Hardwood is quoted per project after a free in-home measure, because the honest price depends on what the job actually is: solid or engineered plank, the condition and flatness of the subfloor, square footage, and how many transitions and rooms are involved. First Choice Tile sends a written, itemized estimate; a 30% deposit holds your dates and workmanship is covered by a 1-year warranty.
Hardwood is the floor people mean when they say they want 'real wood'. And most of what decides whether it still looks right in ten years happens before the first plank goes down. We install solid and engineered hardwood across metro Atlanta: moisture-testing the subfloor, flattening it to the flooring manufacturer's tolerance, letting the wood acclimate on site, and matching the installation method (nail-down, glue-down, or floating) to the plank and the subfloor rather than defaulting to one for everything. Transitions to tile, LVP, and carpet are planned at layout time, not improvised at the doorway.
What We Offer
Solid & Engineered
Both constructions installed to manufacturer specification, with honest guidance on which one your subfloor and rooms actually call for.
Moisture Testing
Subfloor and planks are moisture-tested before installation, because wood installed at the wrong moisture content fails as gaps or cupping later.
Subfloor Prep & Leveling
Flattening, patching, and underlayment to the flooring manufacturer's tolerance before a single plank goes down.
Nail, Glue & Floating
The installation method is matched to the plank and the subfloor: nail-down over plywood, glue-down or floating over concrete.
Acclimation Protocol
Flooring is delivered ahead of installation and checked with a moisture meter against the subfloor before work starts.
Trim & Transitions
Baseboards, shoe molding, stair nosing, and clean transitions to tile, LVP, and carpet, planned at layout rather than improvised at the doorway.
