go with hickory floors as a contractor of luxury homes i see a lot of dark cabinetrey and millwork and unstained natural hickory is a great look as the hickory has both light and dark tones in it which allow it to add a lot of depth to the exsisting cabinetrey and millwork..the price of hickory is comperable to cherry

laminate flooring would also go well and try calling your area carpet/tile stores, sometimes they will give you the names/numbers of installers that will come out and give you a quote. our company sub-contracts, we do not mind sharing our installers, as long as they stay busy, they're usually happy.

The cost really depends on the brand u buy. Lowe is & Home Depot both offer installation if u buy the flooring from them. I believe Lowe is covers a bit more with their installation services than Home Depot does. Lowe is will cover removal of the old floor, any supplies needed to do the installation (underlayments, glue, etc.), & also clean up the site when they're done. I believe Home Depot only covers the work & clean-up, but not any of the supplies. Anyway, depending on the brand, the average engineered hardwood runs about $2-6 per square foot itself (as long as it is not special ordered), & then with either of those companies you'd have to factor in $3-4 per square foot for installation, & with Home Depot you'd have to factor in a little more for the installation supplies. I do not know of any contractors, but both home improvement stores claim to be less expensive. Also, I am sure the cypress would look fine (the knots would tie it all together). I love the look of light maple with dark colors myself. Hope this helps!

I think stone work looks good with dark wood, but if you want wood just try and match the stain at the hardware store (I am pretty sure they would be able to find a perfect match). As for cost, I am not sure. I do not live in Dallas (yet!) so the price might be different down there. Good luck and God bless.

You can get any wood to match with the right stain. Also, make sure that it compliments the tone without being too dark, or your house will feel like a dungeon. Try going to Lowes and looking at their hard wood flooring, the website is good, but if you went to the store someone there could tell you about contractors, and reccommend what kind of wood, not just color, would be best for you.
