So, I’ve learned that if you’re installing hardwood floors, that you need to bring in the wood and let it sit for a week or two as it acclimates to the house. Is it shy? Does it need to introduce itself to the walls and sub-floors? I have no idea. All I know, is that we now have a nice sized pile of oak wood in a bunch of the rooms now, … acclimating to whatever they need to acclimate to. (I’m super excited for them to be installed and stained next!!)
