As always Rustic Wood Floor Suppyl take smoisture reding sbefore delivering the wood to any house or business. We only deliver wood 6-9% moisture. If the reading comes higher we will not deliver this wood. Typically hillsboro wood is 7-7.5% moisture which is a great moisture content for the pacific northwest as we are a drier climate that requires better kiln dried wood for long term performance. You will notice that since Hillsboro Hardwoods wood has a good kiln drying process and is delivered at 7%~ moisture the end product of the floor is very flat.
