What should Richmond homeowners know about their floors?
Richmond occupies low-lying islands of the Fraser River delta. Concrete slabs and crawlspaces call for careful moisture assessment before new hardwood is installed. Engineered construction can offer options where the product and conditions permit, but it is not waterproof and cannot compensate for an unresolved moisture problem.
Neighbourhoods like Broadmoor, Seafair and Terra Nova have detached homes from the 1960s through the 1990s, many with hardwood that can be refinished rather than replaced. Steveston’s historic village and the City Centre towers add townhouses and condos where strata acoustic rules apply.
