Giving a ranch home a hardwood upgrade

Homes from the 1960s and 70s in Citrus Heights often came with carpet over a plywood or slab base, and the open living and dining areas are a natural place for wood. A continuous hardwood floor through those spaces can make a modest layout feel bigger and more polished.

We look closely at what is under your current floor before recommending anything, because the subfloor decides which installation method will work best.

Picking solid or engineered

If your house sits on a wood subfloor over a crawlspace, solid hardwood is a classic option. If it sits on a concrete slab, engineered hardwood is usually the better fit because it can be glued or floated and handles moisture changes calmly.

To learn the differences, see our pages on [solid hardwood](/real-solid-hardwood-flooring) and [engineered hardwood](/engineered-hardwood). Then we will put real planks in your hands so you can judge color and grain.

Budgeting for hardwood

In the Citrus Heights area, installed hardwood generally runs about eight to fifteen dollars per square foot. Wood species, plank width, finish and any subfloor work are the main variables.

We measure carefully and give you a written quote the same day, free of charge. Larger projects can often be spread out with [financing](/financing), subject to credit approval.

The installation process

Once your wood is chosen, we acclimate it and schedule your project. The crew clears the room, removes old flooring and levels the surface as needed, then lays planks in a pattern that mixes tone and grain naturally.

Trim, thresholds and transitions follow, and everything is cleaned before we leave.

Living well with hardwood

Sweep often, use felt pads under furniture and wipe up spills quickly. Place rugs by exterior doors to catch the grit that Citrus Heights summers bring in on shoes and paws.

If you love the look but worry about water or heavy wear in certain rooms, a wood-look [laminate](/flooring-citrus-heights/laminate-flooring) can complement real hardwood elsewhere in the house.
