Pre-Summer Caution!

This post is not in the current series I am working on, "Troubleshooting Finish Issues", rather, it is in response to the high number of calls I am getting about it.  Please... Please... Please, adjust the thermostats in your houses and businesses slowly in preparation for Summer.  Taking floors that have been at a constant 76-80 degrees F to a constant 65-72 degrees F takes a little time.  If you just throw the thermostat down and let it run, you could have issues with your hardwood floor.  Watch the weather and adjust your thermostat a couple of degrees a day or so.  It might take a few days or even a week, but that is a lot better than paying to have your floors repaired.

  41. Oh my gosh, I had no idea that such a dramatic drop in temperature would be so instantly problematic for a hardwood floor? I am considering putting in my own hardwood floor soon. Is there a most commonly used wood that is best for floors?

  42. It was only until I laid my own wood panel flooring down that I realized how much flooring is affected by temperature. It is amazing how much the floor expands and contracts during the different seasons. Being aware of the nature of your flooring will help you to protect it.

  45. Thanks for the tip. What kind of damage could abrupt temperature change cause? I didn't think it was that dangerous. Even just ten degrees can warp the wood?

  46. I think attention to detail is one of my greatest expectations for a wood floor installation. I love to walk around without shoes and when I can feel nicks and bumps on my wood floor it ruins the experience. I choose wood because it is smooth and beautiful, so I expect it to be.
