BUILT FOR THE RIVER VALLEY

Flooring Solutions for Historic Homes

Kent’s location along the Cuyahoga River and its historic housing stock create a unique set of needs. We understand that homeowners here value authenticity, sustainability, and protection against the local environment.

Our Approach to Kent Flooring

Restoration & Preservation

Kent is famous for its 1910s-30s Craftsman bungalows. We specialize in Hardwood Flooring Refinishing, preserving the original heart-pine or oak floors found in these homes. We focus on revealing the natural beauty of the wood, allowing you to keep the original materials rather than replacing them.

Handling High Water Tables

Much of Kent sits on shale-heavy soil with a high water table, leading to hydrostatic pressure in basements. We recommend Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) as a reliable solution. It is 100% waterproof and handles the dampness of the river-valley environment better than organic materials.

Modernizing with Natural Wood

For the 1950s Cape Cods and Ranches often purchased by faculty and young professionals, we replace old tile or linoleum with Hardwood Flooring. We focus on installation methods that ensure stability despite the humidity swings common in the area.

We offer a specific set of services designed to meet the values of Kent homeowners, prioritizing durability and craftsmanship.
 

Hardwood Installation

We install premium hardwood floors that add long-term value to your home. Whether modernizing a mid-century Ranch or renovating a loft, we use stable installation techniques to prevent the "cupping" caused by river-valley humidity.
 

Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP)

LVP is the practical solution for Kent basements affected by the high water table. It offers the look of wood but features a rigid core that is 100% waterproof. It is also an excellent choice for entryways near the Kent Bog, handling mud and moisture with ease.
 

Floor Refinishing

This is our primary focus for the West Side and University neighborhoods. We sand and refinish your original floors to honor the historic integrity of your home. We respect your space and focus on restoring the character of your existing wood floors.
 

Floor Maintenance (Buff and Coat)

Extend the life of your floors. Our maintenance service cleans, abrades, and recoats your existing finish. This "preservation-first" approach revitalizes your floors and protects them from daily wear without the need for a full sanding process.
 

Commercial Flooring

We support the local businesses in Downtown Kent and Acorn Alley. We install durable commercial flooring that fits the modern, walkable vibe of the city while handling high customer traffic.

Kent FAQ

Can you restore the original heart-pine floors in my Craftsman bungalow?

Yes. We specialize in Hardwood Flooring Refinishing for historic homes. We understand the unique care required for original 1920s heart-pine and oak floors and work to preserve their character.


What flooring is best for a basement in Kent?

Due to the high water table and shale soil, Kent basements can be damp. We highly recommend Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP) because it is 100% waterproof and will not warp or rot like organic materials.


My floors cup in the summer. Can you help?

Cupping is often caused by the humidity in the river valley. When we install new Hardwood Flooring, we focus on stable installation methods and proper acclimation to the environment.


Do you do commercial flooring in Downtown Kent?

Yes, we provide Commercial Flooring installation for businesses, shops, and restaurants in Acorn Alley and the downtown area.
