flooring authority
Novi is one of Metro Detroit's fastest growing communities. New construction neighborhoods, luxury condominiums, and executive homes demand flooring that matches the city's forward thinking energy. We bring NWFA certified precision to every Novi project.
From the estates of Island Lake to the neighborhoods surrounding Twelve Oaks, Novi homeowners invest in quality. Their floors should reflect that investment. We specify materials engineered for Michigan's humidity cycles and install them to standards that exceed industry baselines.
Our team has completed dozens of installations in Novi. Our Novi project is pictured above: an open living room and kitchen with a Michigan Plank rift and quartered walnut floor in 2 to 5 inch widths, milled by Michigan Plank Floor Covering, the hardwood manufacturer we own.

Full home refinishing projects that breathe new life into builder grade floors.
Novi's mix of newer construction means subfloor conditions are often more predictable. But we still perform our full diagnostic evaluation on every project. No assumptions. No shortcuts.

Novi Homeowner FAQs
Hardwood flooring questions answered.
Most residential installations take 3 to 5 days depending on square footage and subfloor conditions. However, we never rush. Our timeline includes proper acclimation, subfloor evaluation, and curing time to ensure a floor that lasts decades not just months.
Both are exceptional when specified correctly. Solid hardwood is timeless but expands and contracts with Michigan's humidity swings. Premium engineered hardwood with a thick sawn face and marine grade core offers superior dimensional stability making it ideal for basements, radiant heat, and ultra wide planks.
Michigan's dramatic humidity swings from bone dry winters with forced air heat to humid summers cause wood to expand and contract. Without proper species selection, acclimation, and installation methods, floors can cup, gap, or buckle. Our NWFA Certified process accounts for every environmental variable.
Common signs include squeaky floors, visible unevenness, hollow spots when you walk, or doors that don't close properly. We perform a full diagnostic evaluation using laser topography on every project before a single board is placed to identify and correct any subfloor issues.
In most Michigan homes, yes. We recommend maintaining 35 to 55% relative humidity year round. During winter, a whole home humidifier prevents excessive shrinkage and gapping. We can coordinate with your HVAC team to optimize your system for your specific wood species.
