Solid vs. engineered hardwood
Solid hardwood can be sanded and refinished many times. Engineered hardwood has a real wood top layer over a stable core, which makes it a better choice for basements and areas with humidity changes.

New installs, replacements and floors for remodels or damage repairs.
Hardwood is durable and timeless, but Minnesota's dry winters and humid summers mean installation details matter.
Solid hardwood can be sanded and refinished many times. Engineered hardwood has a real wood top layer over a stable core, which makes it a better choice for basements and areas with humidity changes.
Wood expands and contracts with humidity. We make sure materials are acclimated and the subfloor is dry and level before installation to reduce gaps and cupping.
Oak, maple and hickory are popular choices. Wider planks and matte finishes are common in today's remodels. We'll help you choose what fits your home and lifestyle.
If a leak has damaged your floors, we can remove them, dry and repair the subfloor and install new hardwood as part of your restoration.
“I could not be more happy with Capital City from start to finish. They did a HUGE renovation to my house. I had 5 different contractors bid out the job. I immediately knew when I met Chad he was going to be who I would be going with.”
“The project included doing a makeover of our front porch, installation of a new front door and replacement of our window shutters. The crew did excellent work. We plan on using them on our next project and will recommend them to anyone.”
“The work was completed before the time he thought it would be done and he did a fantastic job. I would recommend Capital City (and Chad) to any and all who would like some work done.”
