Flooring in Denver: what to know
Denver is dry and sunny, with fast temperature swings, spring snowstorms and one of the most hail-prone seasons in the U.S. Expansive soil, strong UV at altitude and freeze-thaw cycles all affect roofs, siding and foundations.
- Dry winter heating can gap hardwood floors; a humidifier helps.
- Foundation movement can crack tile and cause uneven floors, so check the slab first.
