Project Overview

This engineered wood flooring project in Prosper, TX brought the warmth of real hardwood to nearly every room of the home. About 1,535 square feet of carpet was replaced with Bella Cera La Scala engineered hardwood in Bellini, running through the bedrooms, living room, dining room, hallways, and adjoining closets for one continuous, cohesive look.

About Bella Cera La Scala

The homeowners chose the Bella Cera La Scala collection, a French oak engineered hardwood with wide 7½” planks in random lengths up to 60″. Each plank is hand-crafted and finished with a smoked, reactive stain, which brings out natural variation in the grain so no two boards look exactly alike. The Bellini color has a warm, refined tone that works in both formal spaces like the dining room and everyday spaces like the bedrooms.

Because it’s engineered, the floor pairs a real oak wear layer with a stable multi-layer core. That makes it a strong fit for North Texas homes, where it handles seasonal humidity changes better than many solid hardwoods.

How We Installed It

Our crew started by moving the furniture out of each room and removing the carpet. With the carpet up, we prepared the floor to give the new hardwood a flat, stable surface.

Bella Cera La Scala can be floated, stapled, or glued. For this home we chose a full glue-down installation using Sika T-17 urethane adhesive. Gluing each plank directly to the subfloor gives the floor a solid, quiet feel underfoot, without the hollow sound a floating floor can have. We carried the same Bellini flooring into the bedroom closets and finished every doorway with matching Bellini transitions, so the color flows uninterrupted from room to room.

The trim got the same attention as the floor. We pulled the baseboards before installation, then reset, caulked, sanded, and painted them for crisp, clean edges. Finally, we moved the furniture back into place so the homeowners could enjoy their new floors right away.
