A hardwood floor changes a room in a way most other floors cannot. It brings natural warmth, real depth, and a finish that feels more grounded and more permanent. APS Flooring & Carpet provides hardwood flooring solutions for homeowners in Arlington, VA who want a floor that looks strong from the beginning and continues to feel right as the home changes around it.
The hardwood selection at APS includes Bruce Hardwood, with the Bruce Dundee collection available in both plank and strip formats across a wide range of colours. APS currently offers up to 70% off hardwood including installation.
Samples brought directly to your home — decisions made under real room conditions, not showroom lighting.
Qualifying projects can be fully installed the very next day.
Current promotion applies to Bruce Dundee hardwood including professional installation.
Hardwood stays relevant for one simple reason — it brings something to a room that manufactured surfaces still struggle to fully replicate. Real wood has natural grain variation, depth, and character that come from being a genuine material rather than a printed image layered over a composite base.
No two boards look exactly alike. The floor has depth and variation that come from being a genuine material — giving the room a stronger visual foundation before furniture, lighting, or wall colour fully register.
Hardwood is usually chosen for quality first. It makes the home feel more established and adds warmth without relying on anything artificial. For homeowners focused on the long-term value of their property, it remains one of the clearest ways to improve the rooms that matter most.
From pale naturals through classic amber-oak tones to deep espresso finishes. The right colour sets the tone for everything placed above it — and having a genuine range to work from makes that decision more accurate.
APS Flooring & Carpet carries Bruce Hardwood — specifically the Bruce Dundee collection, available in both plank and strip formats across a wide range of confirmed colours.
Bruce is one of the most recognised names in hardwood flooring. The Dundee line gives homeowners a practical starting point because it covers both format and colour variety in one collection. Hardwood is not only about choosing wood — it is about choosing the right width, the right tone, and the right finish for the specific room.
Confirmed colours available through APS include Butterrum, Butterscotch, Cherry, Dune, Espresso, Fawn, Gunstock, Mocha, and Natural — covering everything from lighter, more neutral finishes to richer and deeper shades.
Both formats are part of the same Bruce Dundee collection but they produce a noticeably different visual result in the room. The right choice depends on room size, the style of the home, and the look the homeowner wants to create.
Wider boards show more of each board’s natural grain and character. The floor can make a room feel more open and give the floor a more substantial visual presence — especially in larger rooms where the width has space to read properly across the full floor.
Feels more current and generous in scale. Suits open-plan spaces and rooms with decent square footage particularly well.
Best for: Larger Rooms · Open-Plan Spaces · Contemporary & Transitional Interiors
Narrower strips create a more traditional hardwood look with more seams running across the floor. In smaller rooms or interiors where a classic wood-floor appearance is the goal, the strip format often fits the space better.
Gives the room a more settled, established feel. Connects naturally with traditional trim, classic millwork, and period-influenced interiors.
Best for: Smaller Rooms · Traditional & Period-Style Homes · Classic Interiors
Bruce is one of the most consistently recognised names in the hardwood flooring industry — not a brand that appeared recently, but one that has been a standard choice for homeowners across the country for genuine wood flooring from a proven range.
Help a room feel brighter and more open. A good direction for smaller spaces or rooms with limited natural light.
Versatile across most interior styles. Warm without being heavy — easy to match with different furniture finishes.

The same colour reads differently in every room. Samples are brought to your property so the decision is made in the right light.
Hardwood works best in rooms where the floor is highly visible and where natural warmth and character improve the overall feel of the space. Across the main living areas of most homes, hardwood floor installation remains one of the strongest and most dependable directions available.
APS Flooring & Carpet brings samples directly to the property instead of asking homeowners to visit a showroom, carry samples home, and try to imagine how the floor will look once it is installed.
The consultation happens inside the actual room being updated with real lighting, real walls, and real furniture in view. A hardwood floor can look very different depending on the setting — and the more realistic the review conditions, the better the final decision usually becomes.
This model also removes the back-and-forth that makes flooring decisions feel more complicated than they need to be. Homeowners see the options in their own space, make the decision with confidence, and move forward from there.
The three MSI Rigid Core series at APS each cover different design directions. The visual flexibility of the range means homeowners are not locked into one aesthetic — wood looks, stone looks, and tile looks are all available.
Residential
Luxury vinyl tile options covering a range of tones from lighter neutrals through to deeper, richer finishes. Products include Wolfeboro, Woburn Abbey, Whitfield Gray, Weathered Brina, Stable, Sandino, Ryder, and Mezcla.
Residential & Commercial
7×48 inch wood-look plank format with a 20 mil commercial grade CrystaLux wear layer. Colour range from cream and dove gray through to handsome brown tones. 24 products available.
Residential
The Andover Series covers a distinct design direction within the MSI Rigid Core range. Full colour options and product details are available on the Andover Series page or during your in-home consultation.
A strong product installed poorly still creates a weak result — and hardwood shows installation quality more clearly than many other flooring categories. Gaps between boards, poor alignment at transitions, rough finishing around thresholds, and weak detailing at the edges are all things people notice every day after installation.
Unlike some flooring types where minor issues blend in over time, hardwood tends to make workmanship visible and permanent. Hardwood floor installation should be treated as a full project decision, not just a product purchase with labour added as an afterthought. A well-installed Bruce Dundee floor looks clean, intentional, and complete from the first day — and continues performing properly long after the project is finished.

“We had been putting off a hardwood project for years because of the cost. The APS promotion made it realistic. The Dundee Plank in Gunstock looks exactly right in the living room and the installation was done the next day without any issues. Really happy with the result.”
“The APS team brought both plank and strip samples to the house and it was easy to see immediately that the strip worked better with our older home. We went with Saddle and the hallway and dining room look completely transformed. The installation quality was excellent.”

Because hardwood shows workmanship clearly. Gaps, misalignment, and rough transitions all affect how the finished floor looks and how well it holds up over time — and unlike some flooring types, these issues do not blend in.
