Hardwood Flooring in Fayetteville, NC

Few flooring choices rival hardwood's natural warmth, elegance, and value.

 

At Carpet One Floor & Home in Fayetteville, North Carolina, we proudly offer a premium selection of solid and engineered hardwood flooring tailored for life in the Sandhills. Whether you're remodeling a cozy bungalow or upgrading a large family home, hardwood flooring brings timeless charm and dependable durability.

 

As Fayetteville’s trusted flooring experts, we understand the importance of choosing hardwood that complements your design style and performs well in our region’s humid subtropical climate. From design to installation, we’re here to help you make confident decisions that last for years.

 

Solid vs. Engineered Hardwood Flooring

When shopping for hardwood flooring in Fayetteville, one of the first decisions to make is choosing between solid hardwood and engineered hardwood. While both offer the authentic beauty of natural wood, their performance and construction differ significantly.

 

Solid Hardwood Flooring

Solid hardwood is crafted from a single piece of wood and typically comes in planks around 3/4” thick. Its robust composition allows for multiple sandings and refinishing over the years, making it ideal for long-term homeowners. 

 

Note: Solid hardwood is more sensitive to moisture and humidity changes, making it less ideal for basements or bathrooms.

 

Engineered Hardwood Flooring

Engineered hardwood is designed for greater moisture resistance and dimensional stability. It is constructed with multiple layers of plywood fused in a cross-grain pattern and topped with a real wood veneer. This design minimizes expansion and contraction in response to changes in humidity—an important feature for homes in Fayetteville’s ever-changing climate.

 

Hardwood Flooring Species

The wood species you choose will influence not only the look but also the durability and maintenance level of your floors. At Carpet One in Fayetteville, we offer a curated selection of both domestic and exotic hardwoods, including:

 

Our team will help you select the best species based on your home’s activity level, style, and subfloor type.

Humidity & Hardwood Flooring in Fayetteville

North Carolina’s humidity can affect your hardwood flooring if precautions aren’t taken. Fluctuating moisture levels can cause solid hardwood to expand, swell, or contract, leading to warping or gapping.

 

To maintain flooring integrity:

 

  1. Monitor humidity with a humidistat or hygrometer
  2. Aim for consistent indoor humidity around 42%
  3. Use a dehumidifier or humidifier during seasonal changes
  4. Trust our experts for climate-aware installation practices

 

What Customers Are Saying

"Would like to thank Carpet One for an excellent experience. This is our second time using them. We had carpet replaced with hardwood floors—excellent job from the greeting to the final product. Mr. Ricardo Reyes was our installer. Very impressed with his skills and service. Very timely and considerate, cleaning up at every stage of the process. The installation of the new floors gives us the wow factor we were hoping to experience. Carpet One, thanks for this great experience." – Jerry Dent E. Jr.
