Verify Wills Flooring with Washington L&I ↗Two decisions, made clearly
Choose your wood construction.
Then choose the finish.
Obtain applicable building rules before buying wood or underlayment. A product’s marketing claims do not establish approval for the floor-and-ceiling assembly in your building.
Engineered hardwood
A wood surface over a layered core. Check product suitability, wear layer and approved installation.
Prefinished hardwood
Factory-applied finish. Preparation and attachment requirements still affect access and return to use.
Unfinished & site-finished hardwood
Installed, sanded and finished in the home. Approve stain samples and the specified finish schedule.
Find the look that feels like home
Warm tones. Natural grain. Your style.
Explore imagery from our existing collection. Compare oak, maple, cherry and other species, from clean contemporary boards to reclaimed character and distressed textures.
Check species, sourcing and care in the selected product’s documentation.
The method follows the material
Nail down, glue down or floating?
Confirm that the required sound-control assembly is compatible with the wood, substrate and attachment method. Do not substitute an extra layer without approval.
Nail or staple down
Compatible wood is fastened to a suitable substrate using the specified system.
Glue down
Approved adhesive bonds the wood to a properly prepared, compatible substrate.
Floating engineered wood
Approved boards connect above suitable underlayment; follow clearance, transition and cabinetry restrictions.
Good preparation protects the result
Moisture and acclimation come before installation.
Review elevator reservations, loading rules, working hours and protection requirements. The substrate still needs its own moisture and preparation assessment.
Use the product’s moisture, indoor-condition and acclimation requirements to establish readiness.
Resolve required substrate repairs and flattening before installation.

Hardwood installation questions in Seattle
What should a Seattle condo owner check before choosing hardwood?
Obtain the building’s flooring, sound-control and work rules. Have the proposed product and assembly reviewed before ordering materials or committing to dates.
Does an acoustic underlayment guarantee building approval?
No. Approval may depend on the complete assembly and required documentation. A general sound rating does not automatically satisfy a specific building.
Can any wood be floated over a sound pad?
No. The product and underlayment must permit the proposed installation, and the assembly must meet the building’s requirements.
Who reserves elevators and loading access?
Assign that responsibility in advance. Confirm reservation times, protection rules and any fees with the building and the project scope.
Will thicker underlayment affect my doorways?
It can change finished height. Review doors, thresholds and adjoining floors using the complete approved assembly before installation.
Does the flooring contractor issue building approval?
The appropriate building representative handles approval under its rules. The flooring proposal should supply the product and assembly details needed for that review.
What is the published starting hardwood installation rate?
Wills Flooring publishes hardwood installation labor from $3.25 per square foot with a 500-square-foot minimum. Materials, removal, preparation and other agreed extras are separate. The written estimate sets the complete project price.
What workmanship warranty is offered?
Wills Flooring advertises a one-year workmanship warranty. Ask for its written coverage, exclusions and claim instructions. Manufacturer product warranties are separate.
