Flooring Purchase

Our good friend Eric Holm (a.k.a. Homer) put Noah in contact with his lumber dealer in Orrington, ME (about 2 hours from us). Nino Chiappone at Kings Mountain Hardwood. Noah drove to look at his flooring and decided that was what we needed. The next step was to rent a U-haul truck to get the wood home. It turned out to be quite an adventure to unload, but we accomplished the task in the 24-hour window of the rental period and now our family room looks like a mini lumber yard. We purchased unfinished maple flooring in various widths, 2", 3", 4", 5" and even 6". The lengths are also random but decently sized, as long as 12 feet! We are very happy with our purchase and are looking forward to installing this beautiful wood. Right now the wood is acclimating to our humidity to ensure no buckling after installation.
