Plan the whole room, not just the boards.
DuPont is part of Mario’s service area, with the business based in Yelm. If your flooring project is one part of a larger room update, bring the wider plan into the first conversation. Changes to cabinets, doors, or adjoining surfaces can affect flooring decisions.
Choose materials before setting the sequence
For hardwood floor installation, discuss the subfloor, flooring specifications, and how the finished height will meet nearby rooms. A sample shows appearance, but not whether a product fits the installation conditions in your home.
Our solid versus engineered wood guide can help organize those questions. Let Mario know if other trades will be working in the same space so you can discuss the sequence together.
Keep existing flooring in the plan
If you want to retain part of an existing wood floor, consider refinishing rather than treating replacement as the default. The wood’s condition and previous sanding affect what is possible.
Missing or damaged sections may require repair & restoration first. Matching an existing floor involves board dimensions, wood appearance, and the surrounding finish; an exact match should not be assumed.
Start your DuPont project
Share photographs, the rooms involved, your property location, and any planned renovation work. Discuss assessment arrangements and timing with Mario before ordering materials or arranging other work.
