My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Prestige engineered hardwoods by bpi

7 years ago
Has anyone installed Prestige Mountain Harbor hickory engineered hardwood.
I brought home a sample I love but I'm not familiar with the company and can't find much info. It is beautiful with a 25 yr warranty
We were given a great quote at $8.99/sq ft installed .
Wonder if "you get what u pay for"?

    I recently had a BPI floor installed. The floor is a good quality with a nice feel. However, don't go by their sample or the photos on their site...it is completely misrepresented. The representations show only a few knots or other variations, but the actual floors are called character grade and that allows them to install floors with MANY, MANY knots and variations. BE CAREFUL because they will not refund you if the appearance of your floor is different than what they represented in their samples or on their website. YOU MUST ASK FOR ACTUAL PHOTOS OF AN INSTALLED FLOOR IN THE FLOOR OF YOUR CHOICE in order to get a true idea of what your choice will look like in your home.

      GeorgiaPeach 1970 , with wood flooring you always get what you pay for. Just that picture looks like there may be a lots of shorts. Also be careful with Hickory. Its very temperamental in humid climates. The scraped look is also going out of style now.

      That's advice well taken. And I live in the S.E.!

      We've looked at so many samples my head's spinning. I love that look,stylish or not.
      We've checked out vinyl plank but you just cannot replicate that beautiful wood.
      Btw..it is engineered hardwood. I may not have posted that.

      Did you end up using this brand? I’m looking at Prestige also and was curious on what your thoughts are.

      Jegtm or GeorgiaPeach 1970 did either of you go with Bpi Prestige engineered hardwood. If so can you tell me if you have been satisfied with the flooring. Thank you.

      I have hazy, dirty looking areas on my BPI Prestige engineered hardwoood floor. I have tried Bona floor cleaner and a mixture of Dawn and warm water to clean, but I can’t get it gone. I am not the original owner of the home, but the floor is about 4 years old. It is a glue down floor. I contacted the builder to find out what kind of flooring it was. Can anyone help me as to how to deep clean this floor?
