"Aquila handled 2,400 sq ft of white oak in our remodel. The seams are invisible, the transitions are perfect, and they left our house cleaner than they found it."

Hardwood Installation
Hardwood floors, installed to last generations.
Solid and engineered hardwood installation across the greater Austin area. From wide-plank white oak to classic site-finished maple — installed plank by plank with proper subfloor prep, acclimation, and a written workmanship warranty.
Benefits
Why this floor, why us.
- Timeless beauty
- Real hardwood gains character over decades. It's the only floor that often makes a home more valuable than the day it was installed.
- Sandable & refinishable
- Solid hardwood can be refinished 4–7 times in its life — meaning your floor can outlive your roof, your HVAC, and your kitchen remodels.
- Pre-installation moisture testing
- We log moisture content of every box on delivery and again before install. No installs until the wood is within spec.
- Tight seams & invisible joints
- Racked carefully for grain variation. End-joints staggered. Reveals consistent. Every detail finish-carpentry grade.
- Custom stain matching
- Site-finished installs let us match existing floors, cabinets, or your exact preference — no factory-color compromise.
- Workmanship warranty
- Written warranty on every install. If it squeaks, separates, or lifts because of our work, we come back and fix it.

FAQ
Hardwood questions, answered.
Solid hardwood (3/4") can be sanded and refinished many times over its life, making it ideal for forever homes and second-floor installations over plywood. Engineered hardwood is more dimensionally stable, which makes it the better choice for slab subfloors and homes with significant humidity swings. We'll walk through your subfloor and goals during the estimate.
Reviews

"We interviewed four installers. Aquila was the only one who actually crawled the subfloor before quoting. The finished floor is flawless — exactly what they promised."
