At O’Brien Floors, we specialize in the installation of all types of hardwood flooring, including solid hardwood, engineered hardwood, unfinished hardwood, pre-finished hardwood, exotic hardwood, and synthetic floorings such as laminate and vinyl planks. Our team of experienced and certified professionals will provide expert advice on the best installation method for your specific needs.

We offer three main installation methods: nail down/staple installation, glue down installation, and floating installation. Each method has its own set of advantages and disadvantages, and we will work with you to determine the best solution for your floors.

Nail-down/staple installation is the most traditional method of installing hardwood flooring, and it is suitable for solid hardwood and engineered hardwood. This method involves nailing or stapling the hardwood planks to the subfloor.

Glue-down installation is suitable for some types of solid hardwood, engineered hardwood, and exotic hardwood. This method involves applying glue to the subfloor and then laying the flooring planks on top.

Floating installation is suitable for some types of engineered hardwood and most laminate and vinyl plank flooring. This method involves laying the planks on top of an underlayment and then securing them together using a tongue-and-groove system.

Our team will also take care of any necessary subfloor preparation, including leveling and moisture testing. We use only the highest-quality materials and equipment and take great care to ensure that your floors are installed to the highest standards.

We understand that every floor is unique, and we work closely with our clients to understand their specific needs and desires. Don't wait any longer, contact us today to schedule a consultation and see the difference a professional installation can make for your hardwood floors.
