Residential Flooring: Tailored Solutions for Your Home’s Unique Needs

Flooring isn’t just something that sits atop your subfloor—it helps define the character and feel of your entire home. At Mattson Floor, we know that each home is unique, and residential flooring should capture your lifestyle, design preferences, and practical needs. That’s why we’re dedicated to helping homeowners discover hardwood flooring solutions that beautifully balance style, strength, and individuality.

Why One-Size-Fits-All Residential Flooring Doesn’t Work

Your home isn’t like anyone else’s, and neither are your floors. From the busy family room that sees daily foot traffic to a quiet study that craves elegance, each room has its own demands. That’s why custom residential flooring solutions are so important. Choosing the right type of wood, finish, and installation method ensure your new floors complement your home’s unique architecture and how you live every day.

Solid vs. Engineered Hardwood: What’s Best for Your Home?

A common question we hear at Mattson Floor is whether to choose solid hardwood flooring or engineered hardwood. Both options offer timeless beauty, but each has distinct advantages:

Solid hardwood: Crafted from single planks of northern-sourced lumber, solid hardwood offers unmatched authenticity and can be refinished multiple times.

Engineered hardwood: Built with a real wood surface over a stable core, engineered hardwood handles moisture and temperature changes.

Our experts guide you through these choices, explaining how each option aligns with your home’s specific needs and your long-term plans.

Subfloor Preparation: The Foundation of Lasting Beauty

Even the highest-quality hardwood won’t perform well without proper subfloor preparation. At Mattson Floor, we emphasize detailed subfloor inspections and moisture testing. Whether it’s leveling uneven surfaces or installing moisture barriers, these steps protect your investment and ensure your new floors remain beautiful for decades.

Personalized Design and Finish Options

Your floors should reflect your taste, whether you love the natural warmth of oak or the clean sophistication of maple. 

We offer:

  • Custom Bona commercial stains and finishes to match your home’s interior
  • Unique plank widths and patterns for added character
  • Low-sheen and matte finishes for a modern, understated look


These details turn residential flooring from a functional element into a design feature that enhances your entire living space.
