Why Homeowners Choose De Leon Hardwood Floors
Locally owned, detail-driven craftsmanship
De Leon Hardwood Floors delivers dedicated hardwood floor installation led by a locally owned & operated team. Our trained installers protect your home, plan every detail, and communicate clearly from day one. We combine proven methods with quality materials to achieve a durable, beautiful floor that elevates your space.
We provide transparent, line‑item proposals, careful surface protection, and diligent site cleanliness. Our crews follow industry best practices to ensure flat, quiet, and secure floors with crisp transitions, flush vents, and tight trim details—all backed by a straightforward workmanship guarantee.
A guided process from consultation to final walk‑through
It starts with a thorough in‑home consultation: accurate measurements, subfloor evaluation, and moisture readings to determine the right installation method. We help you select species, grade, width, and profile, then plan acclimation and logistics to keep your project on schedule and free of surprises.
On installation day, we prepare the subfloor for flatness, install the correct underlayment or moisture system, and set clean layout lines for balanced, straight runs. Depending on the product and subfloor, we use nail‑down, glue‑down, or floating techniques, maintain proper expansion gaps, fit trims and transitions, and finish with a detailed walk‑through and care guidance.
Engineered vs. solid, finishes, patterns, and accessories
We install both solid and engineered hardwood. Solid is timeless and robust, while engineered provides greater dimensional stability—especially over concrete or with wider planks. We’ll advise on thickness, wear layer, and installation method to match performance goals and site conditions, including compatibility with radiant heating.
Prefinished hardwood offers factory‑applied finishes for fast turnarounds and immediate use. Unfinished flooring can be installed when a custom color or sheen is planned by your finishing contractor. We help you choose appropriate sheen levels and edge profiles to achieve the look and durability you want.
Design options include straight or diagonal layouts, herringbone and chevron patterns, borders, and feature areas. We also handle stair treads and nosings, flush‑mount vents, reducers, and thresholds for a cohesive finish. Low‑VOC adhesives, sound‑control underlayments, and premium fasteners are available to meet performance and indoor‑air goals.

Unfortunately, I have had to reach out to most of the hardwood flooring professionals in the area recently. Many stopped responding when they learned about our project, which was simply cleaning and accurately applying maintenance oil to correct manufacturing and installation defects. Others provided incorrect information, and some provided quotes that were truly out of this world. Jorge de Leon was the only professional who was on time, extremely knowledgeable about the products involved and very friendly and respectful of us and our home. He didn't pressure us into choosing the option that would have been the easiest or most profitable for him, and he was very realistic and pragmatic about how we could best get the results we were looking for. He took time to explain the situation to us and discuss the options. He provided a clear written estimate and a written invoice, which also is not always available, even though it is required. Finally, he is licensed for this work. Jorge and his crew did a great job and we are truly grateful that they helped us out on relatively short notice. Based on our experience, I recommend working with them for hardwood flooring needs.
