Doing a renovation & part of it in putting in hardwood floors...
Got a contractor, but we supply the materials. Where is the best place to get the wood, should you buy it pre-stained or is it better to have it stained after the fact?
Don't want to spend a fortune, but at the same time we want good quality. There are the HD / Lowes, & I've heard of a place called Lumber Liquidators...
Also, any suggestions as to wood types - contractor said red oak, but that may just have been bc it's the most popular.
Went to a place & felt overwhelmed by all the choices - seems really easy to make a bad choice...
