Comments (3)Make sure that any reclaimed wood has been properly treated for insects or you'' end up with an infestation in your home. No plastic picture of wood floors over particle board in a kitchen. Either choose real wood, or tile....See MoreAre wood floors supposed to match wood beams/doors?
Comments (9)It is very possible you will get this to work. The beams are pretty far away (20ft ceilings?) and the doors look more in the 'brown' range than the reds. Hickory has 5-7 different colours in it. The stain will lessen this to 2-3. The little bit of variation will help tremendously. If the floors arrived yesterday, where are they being acclimated? When is the 'installation' slated to start? Has anyone tested the moisture of the planks? Traditionally the installer is on hand for the delivery (whenever possible) and the installer stacks/racks the wood properly. While doing this s/he also does random Moisture Content (MC) readings of (roughly) 10% of the planks. This is the 'starting point' for the wood's acclimation. The installer also deals with the current subfloor situation (MC rating for either plywood or concrete slab). The installer would write down ALL of these readings and hand a copy over to you once the install is finished. Has any of this been done?...See MoreHelp finding a beam / railing wood stain to match wood floors
