From Concrete Loft to Warm, Elegant Living
A.B., a homeowner on Greene Street in SoHo, Manhattan, came to Wood Flooring Masters with a clear vision: to turn their stylish SoHo residence into a warmer, more refined space with high-quality hardwood flooring. They had already sourced 1,450 sq ft of premium prefinished hardwood and matching plywood subflooring, and needed an expert team to bring it all together seamlessly.
Given the unique structural challenges of SoHo lofts — high ceilings, concrete bases, and historic details — the project demanded precision, care, and experience. A.B. entrusted us with this transformation, and we were proud to deliver beyond expectations.
Installing a Strong Foundation with Plywood Subfloor
We began by preparing the foundation. The entire 1,450 sq ft floor space required a new plywood subfloor layer to support the hardwood installation. A.B. provided 1/2” and 3/4” plywood sheets, which we installed with precise leveling and secure anchoring.
This critical step ensured a smooth and stable base, allowing the finished hardwood flooring to perform flawlessly for years. For SoHo apartments with uneven surfaces or concrete bases, this type of subfloor installation is essential for longevity and noise reduction.

Premium Prefinished Hardwood Installation
Next came the highlight of the project: the installation of A.B.’s selected prefinished hardwood flooring. Our team laid the planks with exact alignment, ensuring that the natural grain patterns flowed beautifully from room to room.
Since the material was factory-finished, each piece needed careful handling to maintain its protective coating and ensure uniform sheen. Our team worked efficiently while maintaining strict quality control throughout the installation process.
Clean Finish, Professional Delivery
Upon completion, we performed a full cleanup of the space — no dust, no debris, just stunning new floors ready to enjoy. A.B. was thrilled with the transformation: the cold, hard surface of their SoHo loft was now a polished, inviting space full of warmth and character.
They appreciated not only the craftsmanship but the professionalism, communication, and cleanliness of the entire experience with Wood Flooring Masters.
