Also, I've been reading some stuff online that says that the new
hardwood should be sealed on all sides. I've never heard of that
before and never saw anyone do it. Is that something that people
actually do? -- seal the new unfinished hardwood on all sides before
putting it down? I doubt it, but I have to ask.

Overall, any tips, suggestions, etc. anyone has before I start the
installation would be appreciated.


Maybe a coat of sealer before the finish?
