Quite the pour we have today! Seams like all we do is level floors lately. This on is over 2” in the middle of the floor. We have been dealing with the dreaded Bowl syndrome. Meaning the center of the Room is much lower than the outside walls. This one is getting 8” Engineered hardwood by @hickmanwoods so it needs to be within 3/16” over 10’. It’ll probably be better than that! Using the water proofing product on the market @ardexamericas #mcrapids 100% moisture blocking. It’s like thick black tar, but always does the trick. Then we broadcast sand, then we level using aggregate and K-22 Fiber reinforced Self leveler. We take this part very seriously and don’t mess around. You do it right or find another profession. #ardexcertified #nwfacertifiedpros #cficertifiedinstaller #floorsbytheshore #whiteoakfloors #belmarbeach

@miragefloors Escape collection 5” Wire brushed Red oak with a Duramatte finish. A new affordable collection from our favorite prefinished manufacturer. We removed old Bruce Rotary Junk. We then put down @ardexamericas K-22 self leveler over VR-98 moisture barrier/primer. We now have the flattest floors possible. #nwfacertifiedpros #bonar851 #bonacertifiedcraftsman #ardexamericas #selfleveler #floorsbytheshore #hardwoodfloors #wirebrush #mattefinish #canadianwood #mirage #boafrank #belmar #bradleybeach #oceangrove #asburypark

A little sand and finish job using @durasealwoodfinishes Stain and #fabulon Oil based Poly. We don’t use much oil poly anymore but it still looks nice over dark stain. Did you know that the VOC law for NJ is 350 g/liter but that there is an exemption for quart size containers and they are allowed to be 550 g/liter. Because of this we can still use oil poly and have it as a durable product but at 350 g/liter is not nearly as good. When this law changes, and it will. There will be nothing left but water based Poly and penetrating oils. These laws are in effect because certain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) found in some adhesive and sealant products react with nitrogen oxides in the air in the presence of sunlight to form the ozone and subsequently pose a health threat in the lower atmosphere by causing respiratory problems. So we still use them but not for long. #floorsbytheshore #nwfacertifiedpros

@miragefloors Laying down some of my favorite prefinished floors today. 6” x 1/2” Hickory with Duramatte Finish. It’s one of the best made floors on the market. The boards are always straight and milled to perfection. It’s Finish is super durable and stands the test of time. I often show customers this exact floor in my showroom. We installed it over 4 years ago and we use it behind the counter. Meaning we have an unapproved chair with wheels on this floor every day. Most floors would be destroyed in under a year of these conditions. Not Hickory Mirage! It looks as good as the day we installed it. If that doesn’t convince you I don’t know what will. We are using @bona_pro #r540 Paintable moisture barrier combined with #bonar851 Adhesive for a VOC free application. @bona_pro #floorsbytheshore #nwfacertifiedpros #springlake #seagirt #walltwp #belmar

@coretecfloors Premium Vinyl Plank is great choice for below grade installations (Basements) over a Concrete Slab. They have great visuals with custom embossing and 6’ Long Boards. It will help keep the space warmer And quieter with a layer of Cork underlayment. It is easy to install and the vapor barrier is inexpensive 6 mil polyethylene that we run up the walls a bit and lay the base molding on top of the floor. This way the floor and the moldings are protected from moisture below. #floorsbytheshore #cficertifiedinstaller #vinylfloors #coretecflooring #sharkriverhills #belmar #bradleybeach

Winter is Coming, and guess what that brings? Gaps in your floors. The #nwfa considers small gaps in your floors during the dry season to be normal and will close up when the humidity returns in the Spring. Anything larger than the size of a dime could be other issues. As you can see from this chart from #aprilairehumidifier when you heat outside air from 10 degrees to 70 degrees to heat your home. The Rh drops to 6% The optimal parameters are 35-55% Rh. It’s not just your wood that suffers. It’s your entire home including yourself (Skin, Allergies) If you have forced hot air, you should consider adding an evaporative or steam Humidifier #nwfacertifiedpros #floorsbytheshore #hardwoodfloors #humidity

UV Color Change due to oxidation is often extreme. If you don’t want this to happen. You can use low-E Glass, Window film, Awnings’s and Porches to help. #nwfacertifiedpros #floorsbytheshore #oxidation
