Thanks patrob. We're thinking of the Pewter Vintage hardwood. We've also been considering the Baroque hand scrapped. We will be doing the whole house and am unsure whether the hand scrapped is the right way to go, not sure if we'll tire of it, will it be dated in a few years... This home is suppose to be the forever home so long term thought is being considered... Not sure what to do but have to make a decision soon.

Have you seen Gotham Hand Scraped? We do have the Baroque Hand Scraped installed in our own house & we are def. not getting tired of it :)
We install a lot of hand scraped lately, it's very popular & it will last you for a very long time plus it's more forgiving. Hope you're not getting it from the builder :wink:
We recently installed Gotham Hand Scraped, if you want to see some pics, let me know.


I don't think I'd tire of the Baroque either. I do really love the grey/brown tone wood a lot. I was actually looking at the Gotham floor board a couple of days ago when I went to compare the thickness of the Kentwood and Vintage. I found the Kentwood looked laminatey... If have pictures of the Gotham Hand Scraped, I'd love to see them. Thanks :)

I will try to send you some (will PM you as I need your e-mail address) unless I post them here when I get the chance :)

Hi Patrob,

We just had our design appointment done yesterday. We picked Expresso cabinet, Rustica mocha tile and get the stairs stained with Mirage Red Oak Java. Planning to upgrade the hardwood after closing. Just wondering if this hardwood is good color to go with Rustica mocha tile?

Hi:

Can you post a pic of the tiles? I keep hearing this tile name but not exactly sure how they look :) Also this Java colour looks very diff. than the 1st. generation Java which was a very dark brown colour.

Attached is the combination that we choose. Hardwood is there for stair color only. We would do hardwood after closing.

The colours look pretty good together :)
If you need a quote for the hardwood after closing, let me know :wink:

Hi patrob,

I'm installing an engineered hardwood (1/2" thick by 5" wide) with crown staples. Currently, there is a cork underlayment (Eco Cork Foam from Home Depot) from our previous laminate installation. Just wondering if the underlayment would be suitable for the engineered hardwood, or if I'm better off getting the waxed paper underlayment used for solid woods.

Thanks!

I need to add a bannister to one small area at the top of a landing. Any suggestions on who to contact about that?

As long as the cork does not interfere with the installation, meaning next board goes in freely, you can install over cork. Usually wax paper is used for nail down application. What's your nosing height?

You can contact any railing company.

The work area is adjacent to our kitchen tiles (~1/2" thick) and the stair floor nose (~3/4"), and the cork underlayment is 1/8". I guess the wax paper is the way to go to minimize the use of transition pieces.
