Ask what the written workmanship coverage includes for your Bethel hardwood project. Keep the signed scope with the care instructions.

For nail-down hardwood in Smallwood, note the thickness and direction of existing planks and note the floor height at the opening.

If the Kauneonga Lake rooms need glue-assist options, check adhesive and fastener compatibility before booking a date.

At the Bethel walkthrough, review the pad and leave the required perimeter clearance. Confirm that detail with the written scope.
