Can I Install Hardwood Flooring Myself, Or Should I Hire A Professional?

Considering installing hardwood floors yourself? This eye-opening episode might save you thousands of dollars in mistakes and headaches. We dive deep into the true costs of DIY flooring projects and reveal why professional installation often delivers superior value despite the apparent upfront savings.

Hunter Ross, with over 20 years of flooring expertise, breaks down why some flooring types should never be DIY projects while offering candid advice about when ambitious homeowners might successfully tackle certain installations. The discussion explores how professional installations combine scientific precision with artistic craftsmanship—a balance that takes years to master. Hunter shares, "This is really a science and an art. You've got to know all the technical details about how to do it, and then you have to have the finesse and artistic talent to make it look beautiful."

The conversation turns to real-life disasters when DIY projects went terribly wrong: flooded homes from amateur plumbing attempts, broken windows during demo work, and the nightmare of discovering that door trim heights don't match new flooring thickness. These cautionary tales highlight why experienced professionals anticipate and prevent problems before they happen. As Hunter explains, "Where you think you might've been saving money, boom, there's an added expense that you couldn't have thought of."
