Hardwood floors built around craft, material, and fit
Manufactured, installed, sanded, and finished by ACE Hardwood — so the floor fits the project instead of forcing the project to fit a catalog.
From our mill and showroom to your finished floor
Species, grade, width, texture, and finish — chosen in person at West Lake Hills and delivered by the same hands, start to finish.
Texas mesquite, milled in our own Austin warehouse
Strip and plank flooring, herringbone, end-grain blocks, stair parts, and lumber — from the state's signature hardwood.
Floors that keep going: stairs, ceilings, borders, inlays
Matching staircases, treads, transitions, and custom millwork cut in-house so every detail belongs to the same floor.

Wide-plank floors that hold their own in grand rooms
Solid and engineered white oak in custom widths and finishes — specified with builders and designers, installed by our own crews.
Floor and stairs from the same boards, the same mill
When ACE runs the whole house — flooring, treads, and landings — the wood matches because it was milled together.

The house signature
Mesquite: the Texas hardwood nobody else mills like this
Harder than white oak, more stable than most hardwoods, and grown here: mesquite has a Janka hardness of 2,345 and moves less with Texas humidity than almost anything else you can put on a slab.
ACE has manufactured mesquite strip and plank flooring, herringbone, end-grain blocks, stair parts, and trim in our own Austin milling warehouse since 1985.
