Hardwood Flooring Supply and Installation

The Gold Standard of Elegance and Longevity

Nothing increases the value and character of a home quite like authentic hardwood. At Sahig Floors and more, we specialize in the professional supply and installation of premium hardwood flooring across Abbotsford and the Fraser Valley.

We bring a contractor’s eye for structural detail to every plank we lay. Whether you are looking for the classic beauty of solid oak or the modern versatility of engineered wood, our team ensures your investment is installed to last a lifetime.

Our Hardwood Collections

We source materials that are designed to withstand the unique climate of British Columbia:

Solid Hardwood: The traditional choice. Can be sanded and refinished multiple times, lasting for generations.
Engineered Hardwood: Superior stability in humid or dry conditions, making it ideal for BC basements or homes with radiant heating.
Custom Trim & Transitions: We provide matching nosings, reducers, and T-molds for a truly professional, architectural finish.

The Sahig Installation Advantage

A hardwood floor is only as good as the installation. We follow a rigorous technical process to protect your warranty and your home:

Moisture Testing & Acclimation: We ensure your wood is acclimated to your home’s specific environment before installation to prevent future gapping or cupping.

Subfloor Correction: Using our professional Floor Leveling services, we create the mirror-flat surface required for a squeak-free floor.

Dust-Controlled Cuts: Our team maintains a clean job site, utilizing Moving and Garbage Disposal services to keep your renovation stress-free.

1-Year Warranty: We stand behind our craftsmanship and our materials with a comprehensive 12-month guarantee.

Expert Tips: Solid vs. Engineered Hardwood

It is a common misconception that engineered wood is "fake." In fact, for many homes in the Fraser Valley, it is actually the superior choice.

Choose Solid Hardwood if you are on a main or upper level and want the ability to change the stain color of your floors 20 years down the road.
Choose Engineered Hardwood if you are installing over concrete, in a basement, or have radiant floor heating. Its "cross-ply" construction prevents the wood from expanding and contracting with BC's seasonal humidity changes.

Hardwood Maintenance Guide

To protect your 1-year warranty and keep your floors beautiful:

Avoid Steam Mops: Heat and moisture can force water into the wood grains and ruin the finish.
Use PH-Neutral Cleaners: Avoid vinegar or harsh wax-based cleaners. We recommend wood-specific cleaners like Bona.
Area Rugs & Pads: Use rugs in high-traffic entryways, but ensure the rug pad is "breathable" to prevent floor discoloration.

Hardwood Flooring: Pros and Cons

Choosing the right floor involves balancing aesthetics with lifestyle. Here is a breakdown to help you decide if hardwood is right for your space.

Pros	Cons
Increased Home Value: Hardwood is a top-tier asset that significantly boosts resale value.	Cost: Generally a higher upfront investment compared to laminate or vinyl.
Longevity: Can last 50–100 years; solid wood can be sanded and refinished many times.	Moisture Sensitivity: Natural wood can warp or cup if exposed to standing water or extreme humidity.
Ageless Beauty: It never goes out of style and develops a beautiful "patina" over time.	Maintenance: Requires specific cleaners and can be scratched by heavy pets or dragging furniture.
Hypoallergenic: Unlike carpet, it doesn't trap dust, dander, or allergens.	Acoustics: Can be louder than other materials (though high-quality underlay helps).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

How long does hardwood installation take?

For a standard 1,000 sq. ft. area, installation typically takes 3 to 5 days. However, you must also factor in 48–72 hours for acclimation, where the wood sits in your home's environment before we begin.

Can I install hardwood in my kitchen or bathroom?

We highly recommend hardwood for kitchens, as it creates a seamless look. However, for full bathrooms with high moisture, we usually suggest our Tile or Waterproof Vinyl options to avoid water damage.

How do I prevent scratches from pets?

While no wood is "scratch-proof," choosing a harder species (like White Oak or Hickory) and a matte or wire-brushed finish helps hide scuffs and pet claw marks much better than a high-gloss finish.

Does Sahig Floors and More handle the old flooring?

Yes. Through our Moving / Garbage Disposal service, we pull up your old carpet or lino, haul it away, and ensure the subfloor is prepped and leveled.
