[Check your service area ↗](https://www.magoflooring.com/service-areas) How much does hardwood installation cost?+ Mago’s published labor-and-material planning ranges are $8–$18 per square foot for hardwood and $6–$14 for engineered wood. Final pricing depends on the product, floor area, removal, subfloor preparation, installation method and finishing details. Stairs, trim and transitions can also affect the scope. Send your town, approximate measurements and photos so Mago can review your project. Is solid or engineered hardwood right for my home?+ Solid wood is one piece of wood throughout. Engineered wood has a real-wood surface over a layered core. Compare the specific product’s installation requirements with your subfloor, room location and moisture conditions. The right choice depends on the product and the space. Can I supply the hardwood myself?+ Yes—share the product name, specifications and available quantity before the installation is scheduled. Confirm responsibility for flooring, adhesives, underlayment, transitions, trim and delivery in the written scope. Can new hardwood match my existing floor?+ Share photos and any information about the existing species, width and finish. A site review and samples help assess possible matches. Natural variation, aging and discontinued products can prevent an exact match. Should I replace my floor or refinish it?+ That depends on its construction, condition and remaining sandable wood. If you like the existing layout, a review for refinishing or recoating can be useful before choosing replacement. Damaged boards and previous sanding need to be considered. How long will the installation take?+ The schedule depends on material availability, product conditioning requirements, removal, repairs, layout and any on-site finishing. Mago reviews these details before confirming the work sequence and return-to-use guidance. Choosing your floor?
