Hardwood floors, for the Park Cities’ historic homes and new custom builds
Texas Hardwood Flooring installs solid and engineered hardwood floors in Highland Park and University Park, TX. Homes in the Park Cities range from classic Tudors, Georgians, and traditional homes with original oak floors to newly built custom homes, and each calls for a different approach.
In older homes, the work is often about continuity: adding new hardwood that matches original floors, extending flooring into an addition, or restoring floors that have been refinished many times. In new construction, it is about hitting a designer’s exact color and sheen across an entire home.
We are a three-generation, family-owned company based in Dallas, with more than 50 years of experience behind our team. A senior project manager or one of our owners is involved in every project.
Solid Hardwood
Solid Hardwood in Highland Park & University Park
Solid hardwood is the traditional choice in the Park Cities, and many established homes still have their original solid oak floors. When we add new solid hardwood next to an existing floor, we match the species, plank width, and layout so the new rooms read as part of the original home.
Solid hardwood can be sanded and refinished several times over the life of a home, which is a big part of why it holds its value. During our walk-through, we check door and cabinet heights and the subfloor to confirm solid is the right fit for each room.
Species we install most often
- White Oak
- Red Oak
- Walnut
- Hickory
- Maple
Engineered Hardwood
Engineered Hardwood in the Park Cities
Engineered hardwood has a real wood wear layer over a cross-laminated core. It is a beautiful option for the wide-plank designs often specified in new Park Cities custom homes and major remodels.
The right choice between solid and engineered usually comes down to plank width, the height of your door frames and cabinets, and your budget. We walk through each of these with you during your in-home consultation, so the decision is made room by room, not by guesswork.
Premium engineered options
- White Oak
- Walnut
- Hickory
- Wide-plank
- Exotic species
Custom On-Site Finishing
Matching Original Floors With On-Site Finishing
Matching a new floor to an older one is where on-site finishing matters most. We install the wood raw, then sand, stain, and seal it in your home. Stain samples go down on your actual floor, in your light, so you approve the color before anything is finished.
That process lets us blend additions, remodeled kitchens, and staircases into existing floors, or hit a designer-specified color exactly across a whole home. Learn more about how site-finished hardwood works.
Refinishing & Restoration
Refinishing and Restoring Original Hardwood
Many Park Cities floors are worth saving. Refinishing removes years of wear and gray, then rebuilds the finish with three to four coats. It is also a chance to change the color entirely, from a traditional brown to a lighter, more modern tone.
Floors that have been sanded many times may not have enough wood left above the tongue for another full sanding. We check that during the consultation and tell you plainly whether refinishing, repairing sections, or replacing is the better investment. Our guide to care, repair, or replacement explains the difference.
