2023 Title Sponsor: Mansion Hill Custom Floors

On July 1, 2011, Mansion Hill Custom Floors launched their custom hardwood flooring company in the Mansion Hill neighborhood of Newport, Kentucky. In the decade since its opening, they’ve faced national economic downturns and pandemics, yet persevered.

“Our customers are why we’re here today and continuing to thrive, homeowners come back to us for home renovations and when they move into new houses,” said Bill Walz, Owner. “They share our contact information with their friends. We’re grateful to homeowners as well as the builders, architects and designers who rely on us for both their residential and commercial projects.”

Whether you select solid or engineered flooring products, each of our projects is customized—meaning that the wood species, lengths and widths, and stains vary from job to job. We will guide you and help you choose the right floor for your home!

Before outlining its benefits, it’s important to understand the difference in how engineered and solid wood floors are created:

  • Engineered wood flooring is comprised of several layers of wood.

  • Solid wood flooring is made up of one piece of wood.

Benefits of engineered wood flooring:

  • Resiliency: The layers in the engineered floors create a highly stable core that is less likely to expand and contract. Solid wood flooring will contract and expand more in response to moisture.

  • Installation: Engineered wood floors can be installed by nailing, gluing or floating on, above, or below grades in a home, and it can be glued to concrete as well because of its ply layers. Solid wood flooring generally needs to have a subfloor beneath it.

Mansion Hill Custom Floors can customize engineered and solid wood floors to be nearly any length and width. They also tailor stains, colors and finishes to meet clients’ needs. Both types of flooring can be pre-finished or finished onsite.

If you need help deciding whether engineered wood flooring makes sense for your project, contact Mansion Hill to schedule an appointment. Its experts can help you decide which floor is right for your project.
