Lynden wears its Dutch heritage on its sleeve. There's the 72-foot windmill on Front Street, and Holland Days comes around every spring, with dairy farms filling the country between town and the Canadian border. People here keep their properties up because that's just what you do, and a well-kept home says something about the family inside it. Housing runs from historic Dutch Colonial farmhouses on larger agricultural lots to newer subdivisions filling in the east side of town.

Flooring across Lynden

Home styles we work on: Dutch Colonial farmhouses, traditional 2-story homes, newer suburban developments, historic downtown commercial buildings along Front Street.

The Dutch Colonial farmhouses are unlike anything else in our service area. Many still have original wide-plank pine or oak in the main rooms, finished in oil-modified poly with that amber tone the era calls for. The trim work is detailed, so edging takes patience. We do these projects regularly and enjoy them.

In the newer subdivisions on the east side, LVP or laminate are the common picks. The slab-on-grade construction is a lot like Bellingham's Cordata neighborhood. Flatness is generally good and slab moisture runs low, so click-lock LVP goes in fast and clean.

Storefronts on Front Street need floors that fit the Dutch-themed look but survive retail traffic. Our answer there is usually LVT: patterns that suit the historic facades, with 22-mil-plus wear layers underneath doing the real work.

Climate considerations for Lynden

Out in the open farm country, Lynden homes take more wind-driven rain than sheltered Bellingham neighborhoods do. The trade-off works in your favor underneath: crawlspace ventilation here is generally better.

Why Lynden homeowners choose us

Lynden homeowners want an installer who can read the house. A Dutch Colonial farmhouse looks wrong with modern wide-plank LVP; it wants oil-modified hardwood in period stain colors. A new build on the east side is the opposite call. We match the floor to the home instead of pushing one product everywhere.
