Flooring Contractors in Asheville, NC

13 local businesses listed

Humidity is the thing that catches people out here. Asheville swings from damp summers to dry winters with the heat running, and wood floors move with it. Install hardwood without letting it acclimate, or over a crawl space that hasn’t been sealed properly, and you’ll be looking at cupping and gaps by the second season. Any flooring contractor worth hiring will ask about your crawl space before they talk about finishes.

There’s also a good amount of original heart pine under carpet in older homes around West Asheville, Montford, and Kenilworth. Several of the contractors here do refinishing rather than replacement, which is usually the better call when the boards are sound — you end up with something you couldn’t buy new at any price.

The businesses listed cover Asheville proper plus Weaverville and Leicester. Ask about moisture testing before installation, and get the subfloor conversation out of the way early. It’s less exciting than picking a stain color, and it’s the part that determines whether the floor still looks right in ten years.
