Engineered wood flooring

1-2-3 FLOOR installs all types of engineered wood flooring. Engineered hardwood flooring can be installed on any grade level which makes it suitable for flooring for basements. Expansion and contraction takes place within wood flooring when there is prolonged exposure to humidity changes within the home's environment such as that of flooring for basements. This is the number one reason Lake Norman and Charlotte flooring customers choose this product for flooring for basements. Engineered hardwood flooring is real wood constructed of multiple layers of wood, plywood, and composite materials. Engineered hardwood flooring is more stable than solid wood flooring resulting in less separations between boards during relative humidity changes. This makes engineered flooring a prime advantage for flooring for basements where higher moisture levels are common. Engineered wood flooring comes in unfinished and prefinished which appeals to the design styles of all Lake Norman and Charlotte flooring customers. 1-2-3 FLOOR will help you decide if engineered wood flooring is the right choice for you for flooring in Charlotte NC and the Lake Norman areas.

Floating Floors

1-2-3 FLOOR installs all types of floating floors. Floating floors are also a suitable choice for flooring for basements. Floating a floor is a method of installing a floor rather than a specific type of floor covering. Floating floors can be laminate flooring, prefinished flooring, or other types of floor coverings. In this method, the individual boards are connected to each other rather than to the sub floor. This makes the whole floor move independently which prevents the seams of the flooring boards from opening up. Floating floors can be installed on any grade level including flooring for basements and most can be installed over other flooring materials such as vinyl, tile, particle board, concrete slab, or wood flooring. 1-2-3 FLOOR often uses this method when installing flooring for basements.
