How hardwood performs in Gastonia homes

Gastonia’s humid summers and milder winters mean solid hardwood can expand and contract more than in drier climates, which is why proper acclimation before installation matters as much as the wood itself. In older mill-village homes with crawlspace foundations, moisture control underneath the house is just as important as the finish on top.

Engineered hardwood handles humidity swings better than solid wood in many of Gastonia’s homes, especially over slab foundations common in newer construction near New Hope Road and other growing parts of the city.

Look and style options

We supply and install solid and engineered hardwood from Shaw, Mohawk, Bruce, and Kahrs, in finishes ranging from classic honey oak tones to the wider, matte-finished planks popular in newer Gastonia builds. We’ll bring actual wood samples so you can see the grain and color in your own home’s light.

Installation and installing process

For new installs, we prep the subfloor, acclimate the wood, and install with attention to expansion gaps and transitions. For restoration, we sand down existing hardwood — often uncovering original floors in Gastonia’s older homes — replace any damaged boards, and apply a fresh stain and finish coat.

Most restoration projects take a few days from sanding to final finish coat, depending on room size and the number of coats applied.
