Expert wood floor installation services for Staten Island homes and businesses
New wood floor installation in Staten Island transforms the foundation of your living space - solid hardwood, engineered hardwood, wide plank, herringbone, and chevron patterns tailored to your home's style. Lion Construction Management installs wood flooring as part of larger renovation projects or as standalone transformations. We handle subfloor preparation, moisture testing, installation, and finishing - using nail-down, glue-down, or floating methods based on your building's construction and your flooring selection.
Staten Island's suburban character sets it apart from every other borough - larger lots, detached homes, private driveways, and a residential scale that allows for renovation projects rarely possible in the rest of NYC. From the estate-sized homes of Todt Hill and Emerson Hill to the waterfront colonials of Great Kills and the Victorian gems of St. George, Staten Island homeowners often undertake ambitious projects: full-home additions, master suite buildouts, outdoor kitchens and living spaces, finished basements with walk-out access, and garage conversions. Lion Construction Management brings the project management rigor and trade network of a top NYC firm to Staten Island's residential landscape.

Existing flooring is removed, subfloor is inspected, moisture-tested, leveled, and prepped for installation.
Hardwood is delivered and acclimated in your home for 3–7 days to reach equilibrium moisture content before installation.
Flooring is installed using the appropriate method - nail-down, glue-down, or floating - with staggered joints and tight seams.
Floors are sanded smooth, stained to your specification, and finished with three coats of polyurethane or hardwax oil.
Staten Island renovation projects often take advantage of the borough's larger homes and lot sizes - additions, extensions, full-floor master suites, and outdoor living spaces are common projects that would be impossible in denser boroughs. After your consultation, Lion Construction Management assesses your property for renovation potential, including zoning analysis for additions (most Staten Island lots are in R1-R3 zones with specific FAR and setback requirements). We manage DOB permits, any required FEMA compliance for flood-zone properties, and coordinate structural engineering for additions. Expect a comprehensive pre-construction phase covering site survey, zoning review, design coordination, and detailed cost estimating before construction begins.
Hardwood floor installation in Staten Island ranges from $8–$14 per square foot for standard solid or engineered hardwood, to $15–$25+ per square foot for wide plank, herringbone, or premium species. A 1,000 sq ft installation project typically costs $10,000–$20,000 including materials and subfloor prep.
White oak is the most popular choice for Staten Island homes - it's durable, takes stain beautifully, and works in both traditional and modern interiors. Walnut offers rich dark tones, maple provides a light contemporary look, and hickory delivers dramatic grain variation. We help you select based on style, traffic, and budget.
Yes - engineered hardwood is the best choice over radiant heat systems. It's dimensionally stable and can be glued directly to the heated subfloor. Solid hardwood is not recommended over radiant heat due to expansion and contraction issues. We select compatible products and installation methods.
Installation of 1,000 sq ft of hardwood flooring typically takes 3–5 days, plus 3–5 days for acclimation beforehand and 2–3 days for finishing afterward. Total project timeline is usually 2–3 weeks from material delivery to final coat. We coordinate flooring with your overall renovation schedule.
