Pre-Finished Hardwood Flooring Installation
Enhance Your Home with Pre-Finished Hardwood Flooring
There's no denying that a hardwood floor adds warmth, beauty, and increased value to your home. One of the easiest and fastest ways to achieve a beautiful hardwood floor is by using pre-finished hardwood flooring. This guide will provide you with comprehensive information to help you make an informed decision about pre-finished hardwood flooring for your home.
Why Choose Pre-Finished Hardwood Flooring?
Convenience and Speed: One of the greatest benefits of pre-finished hardwood flooring is its convenience. Unlike unfinished hardwood, which requires sanding and finishing on-site, pre-finished hardwood is ready to walk on immediately after installation. This means less downtime and disruption in your home.
Variety of Options: Pre-finished hardwood flooring comes in a wide range of colors, styles, and species, allowing you to choose the perfect match for your home's decor. Whether you prefer the classic look of oak, the rich tones of walnut, or the unique patterns of exotic woods, there’s a pre-finished option to suit your taste.
Health and Safety: Pre-finished hardwood eliminates the need for on-site finishing, which means no noxious smells or harmful chemicals lingering in your home. The factory-applied finishes are cured under UV lights, creating a hard and durable surface that is both safe and long-lasting.
Durability and Longevity: The factory-applied finish on pre-finished hardwood is typically much more durable than a site-applied finish. The multiple layers of aluminum-oxide-infused polyurethane create a hard wear surface that can withstand regular use and abuse for many years.
Benefits of Pre-Finished Hardwood Flooring
- Ready-to-Walk-On: Pre-finished hardwood is ready to use immediately after installation.
- No Noxious Smells: No need to deal with strong odors from on-site finishing.
- No Harmful Chemicals: The finish is applied and cured in a factory setting, reducing exposure to chemicals.
- Quick Installation: Faster installation process as no sanding or finishing is required on-site.
- Long-Lasting Finish: UV-cured, factory-applied finish is more durable and lasts longer.

Do You Have Questions About Our Pre-Finished Hardwood Flooring?
Pre-finished hardwood flooring is hardwood that has been sanded, stained, and sealed in a factory setting. It comes ready to install, eliminating the need for on-site finishing.
- Immediate Use: Ready to walk on immediately after installation.

Pre-finished hardwood is easier and faster to install since it does not require on-site finishing. It offers a more durable and consistent finish. However, unfinished hardwood allows for more customization in terms of stain color and finish type.
Yes, pre-finished hardwood can be refinished, but the number of times depends on the thickness of the top layer. Most pre-finished floors can be refinished at least once, but some engineered options may have limitations.
Yes, pre-finished hardwood is suitable for high-traffic areas due to its durable, factory-applied finish. It can withstand daily wear and tear, making it ideal for busy households and commercial spaces.
- Visible Seams: The beveled edges of pre-finished planks can make seams more visible.
- Limited Customization: Less flexibility in choosing custom stains and finishes compared to unfinished hardwood.
- Thickness: The top layer of some engineered pre-finished hardwood may be thinner, affecting the number of times it can be refinished.
Pre-finished hardwood can be installed using various methods, including nail-down, glue-down, or floating installation. The method depends on the type of subfloor and the specific product being used.
Many manufacturers use sustainable practices and eco-friendly finishes. Look for products with certifications such as the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) to ensure environmentally responsible sourcing.

Highly recommended! After we made initial contact, Joe came out quickly to visit our home. We received a competitive estimate from him the next day and decided to hire him for the job. We handled the demolition of the existing carpet and tile flooring where necessary. The installation went smoothly--they were able to seamlessly lace in the new red oak with our existing red oak flooring. Joe & Scott were responsive to questions and feedback and got us exactly what we were looking for. If we do more wood flooring or need our floors refinished, we'll be calling them first!
Absolutely beautiful job renewing our hard wood floors! We were delighted to find they were white oak and Joe and his son were so amazing. Hard workers, polite and friendly…so thankful to have found them. They were fast and detailed. Don’t hesitate if you are looking. They are your guys.
J & J wood floors completed our entire first floor with beautiful wood floors. They were extremely kind, courteous, and punctual. The floors turned out even better than what we had imagined. I highly recommend them. Thank you J& J wood floors.
Great workmanship. Friendly and collaborative throughout the whole process. Flexible in working with you (we had to extend the floor in the kitchen and fit that into the schedule. Thorough. Set all the face nails. Sealed all spaces and nails. Got completely under all cupboards, fridge, and piano. And put 3 full Coates on the floors. A great experience with wonderful results. All this with no dust during the whole process! Finished ahead of schedule.
J&J Wood Floors refinished our hardwood floors. They are knowledgeable and professional. They have all the professional equipment and do the job right. We are pleased with how the floors turned out.
J & J did a great job with matching and tying in new wood with our classic old hardwood floors. Fair and easy to work with. Would definitely use again. Thanks
We have used J and J twice to do engineered hardwood flooring. They did our entire downstairs in 2015 and most recently in 2022 the upstairs. Both times went quickly and efficiently and the product looks great
Joe and his crew did a fantastic job installing some additional wood flooring and refinishing our old floors. Everything matched perfectly and they were neat and clean during the whole process. We have some more flooring to do and plan to have Joe do that work too. We would have no reservations recommending J&J flooring to anyone needing flooring work.
On time , kept the worksite tidy and very clean when they were done. Easy to work with and good communicator with questions I had a long the way. The floors look great!
Excellent work. Done quick with great prices. Would recommend to all
Hands down amazing work glad I went with them to do my wood floors I highly recommend
Super happy I chose this company to redo my floors. 10/10 would recommend anyone to use them . Professional in all aspects thanks again guys !
My wood floors are stunning! Joe and Scott did an amazing job of restoring my floors. They are professional and detail oriented! The process they use is very clean and I was happily surprised at how quick and efficient it was. I would highly recommend them, their customer service is top notch.
We had water damage to our oak flooring in the kitchen due to a poorly installed dish washer (another story). Joe and Scott refinished our flooring (approximately 500 square feet) and did an outstanding job. They arrived when they said would, were efficient and professional in every respect, and caused minimal disruption. When I handed Joe the check I said that "it was worth every penny". It was. Most importantly, however, is that my wife now says that she "can't help but smile every time she looks at the "new" flooring. Thanks Joe!
Amazing work restoring our old hard wood floors and installing new wood floors to replace carpet. Wonderful craftsmanship and reliable service. Highly recommended!! We’re very pleased with the results.
We hired J & J to refinish some existing oak floors and install new flooring to match, including a flight of stairs, at our condo in North Tahoe. Joe worked with us remotely (since this isn't our full time residence). We met Joe at the condo and reviewed the job parameters during the estimate phase; the bid was very competitive. Then we were able to do everything remotely via emails and phone calls. The finished product is beautiful and transformed our space. We really appreciate that we didn't have to run back-and-forth from the valley to the mountains to supervise Joe. He kept us updated with progress reports which helped immensely. We have high praise for Joe's craftsmanship and and business sense. His work is first rate and his professionalism spot on. We highly recommend J & J.
Great work, timely, friendly and great prices.
I cannot say enough about these guys my floors turned out amazing. Everyday I walk through the house and it puts a smile on my face thanks,./
J & J Wood Floors did an outstanding job on our wood floors! We have an existing wood floor that we needed to match and they did a great job finding the right product for our needs. Their service and attention to detail was on target. Joe and his son are experts at what they do. I highly recommend this company for all your flooring needs!
We priced out Aquarius Medallion flooring around Bay Area and found J&J to be the best deal even with our project 100 plus miles away from Auburn. We did a large 5000 sf ft home in the Whiskey Aquarius. Jeff and His son are top notch installers and first class people. On time and finished on schedule. I personally recommend them for any flooring project. Feel free to contact me for a referral. Our house turned out perfect and only have praise for J&J. I also think the Aquarius product is a steal and looks better than the much higher priced competition.
