# Hardwood floor installation & refinishing in Welland

Welland sits in the centre of the Niagara peninsula on the canal, with a pre-war core, a large band of post-war housing, and newer subdivision development at the edges. Refinishing original floors and replacing failed post-war installations are both common.

## Areas covered

Downtown Welland, Dain City, Chippawa Park, Northeast Welland.

## Housing stock and what it means for the floor

Pre-war houses carry narrow-strip hardwood or original softwood over plank subfloor, often with settlement that has been in the building long enough to be part of it. The post-war band is plywood over joists with builder strip oak, where remaining thickness above the tongue decides between a full sand and a screen and recoat.

## The practical constraint here

Canal-side and low-lying properties can carry higher basement humidity than the same house type on higher ground, and subfloor moisture is measured before the sanding sequence is set rather than after.
