Pro Tip:
It is very important to consider the location and whether moisture will be present when you’re installing hardwood floors. Changes in moisture can create issues such as warping and gapping. To mitigate the effects of moisture, keep moisture levels within manufacturer recommendations and choose the right construction of hardwood flooring and installation materials. For an added layer of protection against moisture damage we recommend a moisture barrier, which is known to increase the lifespan of the floor.
