You're looking for hardwood floors in Sunderland. You want a durable floor that looks good and is installed correctly the first time. That's what I do. I focus on proper installation because a floor is only as good as the work put into it. We'll find the right wood for your home, make sure the subfloor is perfect, and give you a finished product that will stand up to years of use. No sales pitches, just solid work.
Solid Hardwood vs. Engineered
People often ask what the difference is. Solid hardwood is one piece of wood, top to bottom. It's tough and can be sanded and refinished many times over its life, which can be decades. It's the classic choice for a reason. Engineered hardwood has a real wood top layer with a plywood core. This construction makes it more stable in areas with some humidity changes, like over concrete subfloors. Both are good options, but the right one depends on your house and your needs. We'll figure that out together.
The Installation Process
Getting a hardwood floor right isn't just about nailing boards down. It starts with preparation. We make sure your subfloor is level, clean, and dry. An uneven subfloor leads to squeaks and gaps, so we fix that first. The wood also needs to acclimate inside your home for several days to adjust to the temperature and humidity. This prevents buckling or gapping later. Only then do we start the actual installation. We use proper tools and techniques to ensure a tight fit and a professional finish.
Why Professional Installation Matters
You can buy flooring from a big box store, but their installers vary. When you hire a local contractor, you're hiring someone who understands local homes and stands behind their work. A poorly installed floor fails quickly, costing more in the long run. We take care of the details: straight lines, clean cuts around door frames, and proper expansion gaps. It's about doing the job properly so you can enjoy your floors without issues. Get a floor that's meant to last. Call us at (647) 898-7839.

"We are so pleased with our new floors and staircase! The team removed carpet from two rooms, staircase & landing and replaced it all with beautiful hardwood. During our initial consultation, we were provided with several options on what would work best in the space, and a very reasonable quote. Rudy & his team are professional in every way - punctual, detail oriented and are truly experts in what they do. We will definitely call Delight Flooring for our next job - thanks again Rudy!"

"Finding the right flooring can be stressful and expensive. And finding the right installer could be the same. With so many incapable installers out there, you just never know who to trust. Rudy was professional and prompt from the start. They showed up when promised and started working without delay. They nailed and used adhesive where necessary. I am very impressed with their skill and attention to detail and would recommend them to anyone. Thank you Delight Flooring and I look forward to my second floor hardwood installation."

"We had 3 quotes and 1 was double Rudy's out and the other guy said it couldn't be done. Rudy got it done and they look great. Spiral staircases, one with carpet that was removed and the other was a builders grade spiral to basement. Rudy was here every day at the exact time he said he would show up and was flexible to work with around our schedule. We were delayed a week, but once we got started everything was exactly on schedule. He custom matched the stain to our current floors and we are thrilled with the finished product. They cleaned up everyday at the end of the job sd were very respectful of our home and family life (2 small kids and pets). Absolutely would recommend Rudy and his guys"
