Your Trusted Lakewood Hardwood Flooring Experts
Homeowners throughout Lakewood rely on DS Hardwood Flooring for professional hardwood floor installation, refinishing, and repair built to last. A suburban city between Tacoma and Olympia, set among a cluster of lakes including American Lake, Gravelly Lake and Lake Steilacoom, and adjacent to the McChord Field portion of Joint Base Lewis-McChord. With a population of roughly 63,612, it's a community we're proud to serve.
A wide mix of mid-century homes from the postwar 1940s-50s building boom alongside lakeside estates, with grand early-1900s properties such as Thornewood Castle near American Lake. We work throughout the area — from Tillicum, American Lake and Gravelly Lake — matching each project to the age and character of your home. Whether your floors need refinishing or a fresh install, the region's wet winters mean moisture control and proper acclimation matter — something we've refined over 15+ years serving Pierce County homes.

Hardwood Flooring in Lakewood
Lakewood is genuinely mixed: postwar 1940s-50s mid-century homes sit alongside grand lakeside estates near American Lake and Gravelly Lake, with landmark early-1900s properties like Thornewood Castle in the area. That range means our approach changes house to house. Mid-century homes in neighborhoods like Tillicum often have solid oak floors under carpet that refinish beautifully, while lakeside estates may have original hardwood worth careful restoration and species-matched repair. Because the city is set among a cluster of lakes, waterfront and low-lying homes see more humidity, so we test subfloor moisture and favor engineered flooring for rooms close to the water. Proximity to McChord Field means we also see plenty of military families on tight timelines, so we plan acclimation and install schedules realistically rather than rushing material that has not adjusted. We match the recommendation to the era and the lot, not a one-size approach.
Lakewood Flooring Considerations
- Mid-century oak floors in Tillicum often refinish well under old carpet
- Lakeside homes near American and Gravelly Lake need moisture testing first
- Estate-era properties call for careful species-matched restoration, not replacement

Hardwood floor refinishing in Lakewood typically runs $3-$8 per square foot, depending on the condition of the floor, the species, your stain and finish choices, and how much repair is needed first.

Yes. DS Hardwood Flooring installs solid hardwood, engineered wood, and exotic species throughout Lakewood and Pierce County (ZIP codes 98439, 98496, 98497, 98498 and 98499). Given the area's wide mix of mid-century homes from the postwar 1940s-50s building boom alongside lakeside estates, with grand early-1900s properties such as Thornewood Castle near American Lake, we help match new flooring to the character of your home.
How long does hardwood floor refinishing take in Lakewood?
Most Lakewood refinishing projects take about 3-5 days, covering sanding, any staining, and multiple finish coats with proper dry time. Because the Pierce County climate stays damp, we allow adequate cure time and use dustless sanding to keep your home clean throughout.
Can you repair water-damaged or squeaky hardwood floors in Lakewood?
Absolutely. We repair water damage, squeaks, scratches, gaps, and worn boards for Lakewood homeowners, often blending repairs into the existing floor so a full replacement isn't necessary. In a waterside community like Lakewood, we pay particular attention to moisture-related damage.
