Marreed-Prestman — PineFlooring.ca — uses PREMIUM KNOTTY NORTHERN ONTARIO WIDEPLANK RED PINE FLOORING in competition with European and Asian Export Grade! I do not use common Retail Grades! I pay for the Best!  Whether you choose MILL-DIRECT, MERCHANT, SELECT or PREMIUM GRADE ... my wideplank wood is all the same superior quality lumber from the same "State-of-the-Art" International Mill!  The differentiation in the price of my grades are a reflection in the level of labour-intensive Value-Added (V/A) Services offered at each Grade Level.

In addition to other V/A Features, compare these grades:

MILL-DIRECT GRADE: Waste is not Cut-Away! Butt-Ends are not Pre-Cut nor "SQUARED"!
(If you do NOT have a paid crew of two or three men waiting for the next board to be selected, waste cut away and butt-ends squared, then, MILL-DIRECT GRADE is Best for you!)

MERCHANT GRADE: Waste is not Cut-Away! Butt-Ends are not Pre-Cut nor "SQUARED"! But, every board is checked for Line Straightness.
(If you do NOT have a paid crew of two or three men waiting for the next board to be selected, waste cut away and butt-ends squared, then, MERCHANT GRADE is Best for you!)

SELECT GRADE: Waste is Cut-Away!  Butt-Ends are Pre-Cut and "SQUARED"! Every board is checked for Line Straightness.
(If you have a paid crew of two or three men Waiting Time for "the next board" to be installed in minimal ... thus, SELECT GRADE is Best for you!)

PREMIUM GRADE: Waste is Cut-Away!  Butt-Ends are Pre-Cut and "SQUARED"! Every board is checked for Line Straightness and Tight-Fit Tested.

Why RED PINE?

New Red Pine flooring enhances classic decor styles ... from Antiques to Stainless.

Red Pine has reddish knots and a more vibrant grain than White and Yellow Pine(s) but, more importantly, with a rating of ~1575 (J) on the Janka Hardness Rating Scale (J) For Wood Flooring Species. NORTHERN ONTARIO WIDEPLANK RED PINE is ~4 times more dense and harder than (any) White and Yellow Pine(s).

X-Link (sister page): Soft Wood? "Janka Hardness Rating Scale (J) For Wood Flooring Species"

 

Perfect for the DIY: Do-it-Yourselfer *

Commodity-Oriented Resellers require an Acclimatization Period for their wideplank wood flooring lumber — The lumber must be STICKERED carefully — stacked with evenly spaced cross-sticks between every row — to support the lengths without 'sagging' — This time-consuming and space-wasting prices must be done within the building in which the flooring is to be installed and under ideal heat, humidity and ventilated conditions. Assuming, you "do-it-right", the sheer space required to 'evenly' distribute and Sticker thousands of pound of lumber, places you in an 'impassable' position ... 'tripping over your own lumber' — and inhibiting most indoor construction — for ten (10) to fourteen (14) days before installation of your wideplank floor can begin. In addition, Stickering causes "Cross-Staining".

 

Whereas, Stickering is not an issue as Marreed-Prestman maintains proper Kiln-Pitch * using controlled indoor storage and Just-in-Time (JUT) Delivery ... No Acclimatization Period (or Stickering) is required for 'local' hand-delivered product whether you chose my Full Installation or DIY: Do-it-Yourself Lumber Supply.

Lastly, Stickered Lumber' must be unstickered and sorted by length prior to starting the job as it is unadvisable and impractical to draw the various lengths of lumber you require from a heavy and inaccessible Stickered Stack ... more space, more labour and more time is inefficient, wasteful and impractical when other, more important matters are pressing ... to complete your new-build or renovation project on schedule.

* NO acclimatization period is required under normal (above +10 degree Celsius) delivery and proper installation conditions ... NO ten (10) to (14) fourteen day 'Waiting Period' to 're-condition' the wood because I control final product processing "beginning-to-end", without 'abusive handling or storage' delays.

* Applies to JUT Mill Readiness and 'local' hand-delivery in above-zero degree temperatures. Extended distances and/ or Winter delivery conditions and/or commercial transportation may affect Kiln-Pitch to some extent and may require minimal (48 hr. room-temperature) acclimation.

"Price is King"

bullet

When "Price-is-King", you may be shopping for short-term gain ... be cautious about Wide Plank flooring material (of any kind) that is of mixed species and/or inconsistent widths. Substandard Grades, Air Dried, V-Joint (top edges), and 'unpredictable storage' affect Shelf Life, etc. as these are just a few items "you will eventually pay for" with regret.

bullet

Substandard materials will cause "a problem floor" in an otherwise valuable property ... 'substandard' products are sold everywhere by 'trusted' Commodity-Oriented Resellers For example, walk into a "Big Box" store and locate "Canada Grade "A"-Select 2"X4" Spruce lumber and 'experience' disappointment and disbelief that such substandard product can be STAMPED with a "Mill Rating" of Canada: Grade "A"-Select. It is sloppiness in sourcing and retailing, plain and simple.  Price is King.

bullet

Now, try buying Northern Ontario Wideplank Red Pine from these same Commodity-Oriented Retainers and you will have to buy 1,000 lf. at a time — regardless of the quality you require — even if you are short a few boards to complete your project.

Pine Flooring www.PineFlooring.ca  www.ArtFloor.ca  www.ArtTable.caQualify Your Actual Requirements

Be fair to yourself ... determine your actual requirements before 'factoring' prices...

In my experience, people rush to guesstimate their flooring requirements which falsely encourages or discourages them when they calculate the cost of their flooring project ... if you underestimate your requirements, you may be surprised by the actual square footage and appropriate budget requirement ... if you overestimate you may 'disqualify' yourself based on false 'pricing' information. Neither situation is advantages.

Calculate your actual sq. ft. flooring requirements as accurately as possible?  This exercise may surprise you .... if you are building or renovating an 1,850 sf. house, you may only require 1,250 sf. of 'distressed' Wideplank Red Pine Flooring plus, utility flooring.

1a) Measure the interior of each room (excluding walls, including closets) then, remove the footprint for the kitchen and bathroom cabinets/counters, tubs/showers, staircase, fireplace/stove base areas and closets that you may not want done, etc., to determine a fair measure. (Avoid using 'building plans' and 'exterior' dimensions.)

1b) Consider Cutting and Fitting 'waste' ... it may be higher than expected, as this, in part, changes as your plans progress, depending on the 'complexity' of the 'final' floor layout, belated floor plan changes including cabinets, counters, bathroom fixtures, fireplace, stairs and even wall locations ... mainly, consider the skill, experience and efficiency of the installation crew.

1c) Consider your budget requirements. If budget is "an issue" when considering "wall-to-wall" artistic flooring, consider doing selective areas ... the critical living areas ... use utility flooring in less important areas .

Notable Quotes

"Just to let you know that my (DIY) pine flooring installation went without a hitch in my 1840s heritage home and the end result is all that we had hoped for. Based upon my two DIY: Do-it-Yourself ventures with laying flooring purchased from and delivered promptly by your company, I have no hesitation in recommending that any potential purchaser feel secure in the quality of the wood received and in the fairness of any possible after-sales service required. You really do go out of your way so much to ensure a happy customer, a complete service that is rare today.

Roger & Nora, Ayr, Ontario (Kitchener/Waterloo)

DIY: SKILLS?

Local Installation and DIY: Do-It-Yourself SKILLS?

DIY'ers require the knowledge, time and skill required to install, sand and finish their flooring. If you require "experienced help", a local carpenter or floor finisher with proven qualifications is often feasible and practical and you are responsible for their workability and expertise!

In addition to cost ... what is the "make or break" difference between a Marreed-Prestman Installation and a DIY: Do-it-Yourself installation?

Building and finishing a handcrafted floor is a 50-50 Win/Lose Proposition.  Think of it as weighing the pros and cons of hiring a Professional Food and Beverage Catering Specialist for "your special event" .... no matter how accomplished your Hosting and Catering Skills ... you may decide to  buy or reject "The Value & Service Proposition" offered by a Professional.  In effect, you judge when it is time to hand the job to a reputable and proven Professional or Do-it-Yourself.

"The Value Proposition" for any DIY: Do-it-Yourself floor is similar in nature ... selecting materials, completing the installation and the finishing is time-consuming and skilful work no matter who does the job.  Should you choose the DIY: Do-it-Yourself route and purchase Northern Ontario Red Pine Lumber from Marreed-Prestman, I can assure you the quality you require to get you started ... the success of your project, of course, depends on your competence in woodcraft.

Alternately, Marreed-Prestman may accept your Labour Crew and provide you with a Labour Cost Rebate... you and/or two or three of your STRONG "Family or Friends" can act as "CREW" on your job only. I hold myself fully responsibility for the high quality of your job. "Crew" is usually required for only two or three days in total ... this allows you to take full advantage Marreed-Prestman's Installation Expertise, Premium Materials and Exclusive GripTightTM Fastening Technique prior to choosing your Final Finishing Options.

Commodity or Vision?

Most everyone who is 'associated' with your project will 'vent an opinion' and some are determined to separate you from "your vision" ... that is why you must determine if you are buying a commodity or building on a Vision, before you start building or renovating.

Notable Quote

"Our Project Manager told us that your flooring would put us 'over budget' — he did not seem to care about my floor as a quality-of-life investment nor the concept behind kid-and-dog friendly flooring — he said we could let him install local pine flooring ... paper-underlay, tongue-nailed and finished with tung-oil and still stay on budget. Now, we have his flooring installed and it is definitely not what we wanted. We should have stuck with my initial reasons for wanting your floor ... we could have raised the budget 2% to 3% or compromised elsewhere."
