Protocol & Method

Engineered for Montana Climate Extremes

Unbundled wood packages undergo strict on-site hydrometer testing and subfloor deflection analysis before a single fastener is driven into the subfloor.

Multi-Stage Finishing

Unbundled wood bundles undergo on-site hydrometer testing and subfloor deflection analysis to ensure structural stability prior to laying.

Precision perimeter expansion gap engineering and subfloor leveling prepare the surface to handle severe seasonal humidity swings.

Custom plank fitting and mechanical fastening secure every board tight, preventing shifting and cupping over decades of use.

Multi-stage grit progression followed by industrial buffing and penetrating oil seal coats lock in timber grain and long-term resilience.

Trade Principle

Patience during timber acclimation prevents decades of floor warping.

We do not rush the conditioning period because winter in Cascade County shows no mercy to hasty woodwork.
