"We have worked with many contractors over the years. ElmWood is the one we call first."

A Chicago-area property manager shared this after we completed a 4,000 square foot hardwood installation across multiple units in their commercial building.

The project required careful coordination, proper acclimation for each unit, and installation that could withstand heavy foot traffic. We delivered on schedule, with written warranty coverage and post-job cleaning included as standard.

For commercial property owners and managers, the cost of a flooring failure goes far beyond materials. It means tenant complaints, lost rent, and reputational damage. That is why we source directly from manufacturers, test for moisture before installation, and stand behind our work with warranties up to 10 years.

Cheap labor is not skilled, and skilled labor is not cheap. Your property deserves the difference.

Tile, hardwood, or LVP? How do you choose the right floor for your home?

Each material has its strengths, and the best choice depends on your space, your lifestyle, and how long you want it to last.

Hardwood brings warmth and long-term value. With proper acclimation and installation, it can last 50 years or more and can be refished multiple times. Best for living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms.

Tile is waterproof and incredibly durable. It works well in kitchens, bathrooms, entryways, and basements where moisture is a concern. Modern tile options mimic wood and stone looks with far less maintenance.

LVP (luxury vinyl plank) offers water resistance, comfort underfoot, and a lower price point. It is a smart choice for busy households with kids or pets, especially in high-traffic areas.

At Elm🌳Wood Flooring, we help you compare materials honestly, bring samples to your home, and install every floor to manufacturer specifications. No pressure. Just straightforward guidance from a team that has been doing this since 1976.

From raw construction space to a warm, finished home. 🌳

This Chicago loft transformation started with exposed brick, open ductwork, and bare floors. We installed rich dark hardwood throughout, finished the walls and ceiling, and brought the space to life.

Every Elm🌳Wood Flooring project includes proper subfloor preparation, moisture testing, and wood acclimation before installation begins. That is how floors last for decades, not years.

Serving Chicago, Southern Wisconsin, and Northwest Indiana since 1976. Licensed, bonded, and NWFA certified.

Hardwood, tile, or LVP? The right choice depends on more than looks.

Here is how we help Chicago homeowners decide:

Hardwood: timeless, adds resale value, and can be refinished for decades. Best for living areas and bedrooms.
Tile: waterproof and durable. Ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, and entryways.
LVP: budget-friendly, water-resistant, and tough enough for busy households with kids and pets.

We source all three directly from manufacturers, so you get premium materials without the middleman markup.

This Chicago bathroom went from worn vinyl flooring and cracked old tile to a full porcelain tile refresh with crisp subway walls and a brighter, more open feel.

Our crew handled every step — demolition, subfloor prep, moisture testing, tile layout, and precision grout work — the way we have since 1976. No shortcuts. No rushing.

That is the difference between a floor that looks good for a month and one that lasts for decades.

Real words from a real Chicago customer. 🌳

This handwritten note came in after Darren and the crew wrapped up a floors and baseboards project. The homeowner praised the clear communication, the patience with every question, and the care that showed up in the finished work.

That is the standard we have held since 1976 — direct-from-manufacturer materials, NWFA-certified installation, and written warranties up to 10 years.

Tile or hardwood? The right answer depends on the room.

Both are excellent choices, but they perform differently depending on where they are installed.

Hardwood brings warmth and value to living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways. With proper acclimation and installation, it lasts for decades and can be refinished over time.

Tile handles moisture and heavy traffic better, making it ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, entryways, and mudrooms. Modern large-format porcelain tile also resists scratches and stains.

At Elm🌳Wood Flooring, we help you choose based on how the space is used, your home's humidity, and your long-term plans. We source directly from manufacturers, so you get premium materials without the middleman markup.

Not sure which fits your home? We bring samples to you.
