Build Your Dream Floors

The style of your home is an extension of your own personal style and it begins with the floor. With so many options to choose from, you can find something that connects each room of your home together. It’s your home, your lifestyle, and your floors. Choose from a large range of options to create the flooring that fits your lifestyle.

Exotics

Looking for a more modern feel? Exotic hardwood flooring might be the right look for you. If you are aiming for a statement floor, these striking hardwood flooring options like Brazilian Cherry, Purple Heart, or Australian Cypress would be a good option for you.

Domestics

Do you want something warm and inviting? Do you feel drawn to traditional hardwood flooring? North American options such as White Oak, Birch, Maple, and American Cherry are all potential hardwood choices you would appreciate. These timeless options match well with all furniture, both modern and antique.

Reclaimed

If you like an antique piece with a backstory, or if you are a fan of upcycled and eco-friendly builds, you might like reclaimed hardwood flooring. Using the lumber from previous builds, such as old churches or barns, and using it to build your flooring can give wood a new life and your home another great talking piece.

Textured

How about something with a more organic and natural feel? Do you have pets and want to easily hide potential scratches caused by nails on the floor? Handscraped or wire-brushed flooring gives your floor a dramatic look with lots of character. With this option, you don’t have to forgo a great look for a durable floor that fits your lifestyle.

Pattern

Want to elevate your wood flooring and give it a unique feel? Creating a pattern with your hardwood flooring is excellent for elegant updates. With a range of patterns to choose from, you can create a tasteful floor that matches your style with herringbone, square basket, and parquet patterns. Patterned floors create great statement pieces for your more formal rooms.

Smooth

How about keeping it simple and traditional? A smooth product captures the look and character of the wood grain without adding any additional textures. If you are a fan of the natural grains created within the wood, smooth hardwood is a good place to start. Smooth flooring creates movement from space to space throughout your home.

SEE WHAT OTHERS HAVE TO SAY

We used Totta to refinish our hardwood floors and to replace carpet with hardwood floors at the same time. The way they laced the current hardwood into the new hardwood was amazing! You can't tell the difference. They did a great job! Their communication and attention to detail were superb! They are truly craftsmen that take a lot of pride in their work and do things the right way. I would highly recommend Totta Hardwood Floors to anyone that is looking for quality work

FAQS

Solid Hardwood or engineered with a minimum of 4mm wear layer would be the recommended flooring option for households with children. Wood floors are hypoallergenic, durable, and easy to clean.

They are hypoallergenic because they minimize the accumulation of dust, mold, and animal dander which promotes an overall healthier environment in the home.

Because the wood floors can be refinished, you can revive the life of your floors multiple times over the child's time in your home.

Cleaning messes are easy, from a quick dusting to cleaning up a child's spill. Regular maintenance will keep your floors from showing the wear seen in carpet and other vinyl options.

Solid wood or engineered wood with a minimum of 4mm wear layer is a great choice for homeowners with pets. Choosing a harder wood species will also minimize the wear and tear from pets.

Brazilian Cherry or Ipe are both very hard exotic wood but come with a higher price tag. Hickory would be the best domestic wood choice followed by Hard Maple and White Oak.

Wood floors minimize the accumulation of animal dander and hair. They are easier to clean and can be repaired vs replacing.

There are both well-suited and "unwell-suited" places in your home for Hardwood.

Your living room, dining room, and den are all great places to install hardwood flooring. These are lower initial traffic spots that avoid the added moisture, dirt, and grime of some other areas of your home.

Some areas throughout your home you might want to avoid installing hardwood include the bathroom, laundry room, and foyer. These are all areas of high moisture which can deteriorate your floors much quicker than other areas of your home.

The answer depends on the homeowner. Most factory-finished or prefinished floors have their own unique set of pros and cons.

Positive:

Prefinished hardwood flooring offers a broader range of options for hand-scraping and distressed looks that can be achieved more economically than their on-site-finished counterpart.
Convenience: Time Savings: The installation of a prefinished wood floor takes 1-3 days on average and there is no dry-time or cure time to contend with. Furniture: furniture can be shuffled around the working area rather than completely removed from the house.
They can then be installed in one step without creating dust or fumes.

Negative:

Prefinished wood floors will never be as smooth and flat overall as an onsite finished floor. The majority of prefinished hardwood has a slight lip on the ends for an easier installation.
You can experience some color variations between the boards since every piece is stained separately in a factory.
Manufacturers are constantly discontinuing product lines so it may be very challenging to obtain more of the same flooring down the line if you need to.
