The Challenge:
The Martinez family was looking for a way to update their home’s flooring to reflect their modern style while maintaining a warm, timeless feel. Their existing hardwood floors had started to show signs of wear, with scratches and fading, especially in the high-traffic areas. They also wanted a flooring solution that was durable, could handle the fluctuating temperatures in their area, and was easier to maintain than their old hardwood floors. The family’s goal was to find a flooring option that combined the beauty of natural wood with the practicality needed for a busy household.
Our Solution:
We recommended engineered wood flooring, which offers the beauty and durability of hardwood with the added benefits of enhanced stability and resistance to moisture. Here’s how we approached the project:
- Expert Installation: Our team worked efficiently, completing the entire installation in just 4 days. We removed the old hardwood floors and carefully prepared the subfloor for the new engineered wood planks. The engineered wood was installed with precision to ensure a flawless finish.
- Durability & Stability: Engineered wood is more stable than traditional hardwood because it is made with multiple layers of wood, reducing the risk of warping due to changes in temperature and humidity. This made it an ideal choice for the Martinez family, who wanted a floor that would stand the test of time and daily use.
- Natural Beauty & Timeless Appeal: The Martinez family chose a warm oak engineered wood with a matte finish that complements their home’s traditional yet contemporary style. The natural grain of the wood creates a rich, elegant look that enhances the overall aesthetic of their living and dining areas.
- Easy to Maintain: Unlike traditional hardwood, engineered wood requires less maintenance and is easier to clean. The floor’s protective finish helps resist stains and scratches, making it a practical solution for a home with children and pets.
The Result:
The engineered wood floors completely transformed the Martinez family’s home. The living room, dining room, and hallway now look more inviting and stylish, with the rich wood tones adding warmth and character. The master bedroom feels more luxurious and comfortable, with the engineered wood providing a smooth, elegant surface. The family is now able to enjoy the timeless beauty of wood with the added peace of mind that their floors can withstand everyday life without the concerns of traditional hardwood.
Client’s Feedback:
“We couldn’t be more pleased with our new engineered wood floors! ATC Flooring did an outstanding job. The floors look gorgeous, and they’ve completely changed the feel of our home. They were quick to install, and the quality is top-notch. We love that we don’t have to worry about the floors expanding or shrinking with the weather. It’s the perfect combination of beauty and practicality. Highly recommend!” — The Martinez Family
Materials Used:
We used 5mm thick engineered wood planks with a high-quality oak veneer. The natural oak finish features a subtle matte texture that enhances the wood grain, adding sophistication and warmth to any room. The planks are designed with a durable wear layer that resists scratches, dents, and stains.
