Germs linger, causing odors. we had hardwood installed in the entry, living room, stairs, landing and one of the bedrooms we use as an office, sewing, hobby and puppy room. We have carpet in the other three bedrooms.
If your going to have wood flooring installed on the first floor, and the floor is concrete, then they put down a moisture gauge first and leave it for two or three days to see if there is any. Our wood sat in the garage for a few days before being installed. We had it done when we were out of the rainy season. |
I know! It's just so much cleaner! I have allergies really bad and I know that no matter how much I vacuum or have them cleaned there is so much dust, dog dander and dust mites hiding in there and it totally grosses me out!!!
Our home is one story so I am sure the floor is concrete. We are super dry here so I don't know if they still do the moisture gauge? We will see I guess. Thanks!
