Crafted for the Gulf Coast
Hardwood Options That Fit Your Home
Every Louisiana home has its own personality — and every floor should match it. That’s why we carry both solid and engineered hardwood options, designed to complement any space or lifestyle.
- Solid Hardwood: Crafted from a single piece of wood, solid hardwood provides unmatched authenticity, rich texture, and a lifespan that can stretch for generations. It can be sanded and refinished multiple times, making it ideal for long-term homeowners who want a true investment floor.
- Engineered Hardwood: Engineered wood offers the same natural top layer as solid hardwood, but with a cross-layered core for stability against moisture and temperature changes. Perfect for Louisiana humidity, engineered hardwood can be installed in areas where solid wood isn’t recommended — including basements, concrete slabs, and even radiant-heated floors.
Our experts will help you choose between the two based on your subfloor, home design, and lifestyle — ensuring your new floor looks beautiful and performs flawlessly.
Built for Performance
Understanding Hardwood Construction & Installation
At New Orleans Flooring, we believe beauty starts from the inside out. The construction, species, and finish of your hardwood floor all impact performance and appearance. Popular Wood Species Include:
- Oak: Classic grain, excellent durability, and timeless style.
- Maple: Subtle grain and a sleek, contemporary look.
- Hickory: Rich texture and superior strength — ideal for active families.
- Walnut: Deep, luxurious tones with natural variation.
- Exotic Woods: Including Brazilian cherry and acacia for one-of-a-kind appeal.
Our licensed installers handle every step — from preparing your subfloor to applying trim — with precision and care. Most projects are completed in just one day.
Simple Steps for Lasting Condition
Caring for Your Hardwood Floors
With the right care, your hardwood floors can last for decades. Here’s how to keep them looking their best:
- Sweep or vacuum regularly to prevent scratches from dirt and grit.
- Use recommended cleaners — avoid harsh chemicals or excessive moisture.
- Refinish periodically to restore luster and remove minor wear.
- Protect high-traffic areas with rugs or runners.
- Maintain humidity levels in your home to reduce expansion and contraction.
Our team can advise you on finishes, protectants, and maintenance schedules that fit Louisiana’s unique climate.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hardwood Flooring
How does hardwood thickness affect refinishing and lifespan?
Thickness directly determines how many times hardwood can be refinished. Engineered floors typically range from ⅜ to ½ inch, while thicker planks allow up to five refinishes and can last 30–50 years with proper care. Thicker boards also feel sturdier underfoot and add lasting value to your home.
Why are wide planks so popular?
Wide planks create a clean, open look with fewer seams, which makes installation faster and often more affordable. This style suits both modern and traditional Louisiana homes and remains one of today’s most sought-after hardwood trends.
What installation options are available?
Our installers recommend the method that best fits your home and flooring choice:
Nail- or glue-down: Ideal for solid hardwood over wood subfloors, offering lasting strength.
Floating floors: Used for engineered hardwood; planks click together and rest over the subfloor without nails or glue. This method works over most surfaces, including concrete, and may include underlayment for added cushion and sound control.
Which hardwood finish works best in Louisiana’s climate?
Louisiana homeowners often choose hand-scraped or wire-brushed textures to disguise wear, matte finishes for easy maintenance, or glossy options for a timeless, polished look. Modern finishes protect against scratches and humidity, keeping your floors beautiful for years.
Can hardwood flooring go in every room?
Yes—with the right material. Solid hardwood is best for dry spaces like bedrooms and living areas. Engineered hardwood, with its layered construction, resists moisture and is ideal for basements, kitchens, and installations over concrete.
How do modern hardwood finishes protect against wear and moisture?
Today’s finishes, such as aluminum oxide and UV-cured urethane, create a durable seal that resists scratches, scuffs, and water damage. These advanced coatings are designed to withstand Louisiana’s humid weather while enhancing the natural grain of the wood.

So glad we found this place! There's a huge selection, and the prices are fantastic. This is not a big chain store; this is a personal, local shop, and they will spend time finding something that works for you. The whole process was fast and easy (John was awesome to work with and knows his stuff). My husband and I love the new floor, and the whole experience was a dream from start to finish. Will absolutely return if we do any more reno.
