What is Engineered Hardwood Flooring?

When it comes to finding the best hardwood floor for your home, the first place to begin is whether you want engineered or solid planks.

While both types of hardwood look identical on the surface, they are constructed very differently.

• Solid hardwood floors have a uniform construction that features a single piece of premium hardwood throughout. That means your floor is solid wood all the way through. Since it is usually at least ¾ inch thick, you can refinish solid hardwood planks many times through the decades, or until you reach the tongue on the side of the plank. Refinishing solid wood can extend the expected life cycle of the floor. Over time, the finish wears off the surface, causing discoloration. Refinishing removes any blemishes, scratches, stains, and dents, and lets you change the look of your floors. Solid hardwood cannot be replicated and adds value where other flooring options cannot. We recommend installing solid hardwood in areas that are dry and climate-controlled, such as your bedroom, living room, or even a home office space. Solid wood planks can’t go below grade, or in high-moisture settings where plumbing problems, unexpected flooding, spills, and humidity can lead to warping.

• Engineered hardwood flooring is constructed by gluing together multiple wood layers. At the surface is a premium hardwood veneer. You can usually refinish engineered planks at least a few times, though this depends on how thick the veneer is. Engineered hardwood is more stable than solid hardwood because the wood layers are laid cross-directionally and pressed together. This construction counterbalances the wood’s natural tendency to expand and contract. This means less buckling, cupping, and warping. You can install engineered hardwood floors on any level of your home, including finished basements, but it still isn’t recommended for rooms like bathrooms and mudrooms. For these spaces, we recommend choosing a waterproof engineered hardwood floor, offering 100% spill and humidity protection.

What is Wide Plank Hardwood?

Wide plank hardwood, once a popular farmhouse trend, has seen a huge comeback in recent years.

With hardwood style options available for texture, color, species, and finish, virtually any look can be achieved — from rustic, country, and traditional to urban or modern. Wide plank hardwood boards start at around 5” wide and can be as big as 8” wide.

Wide and long hardwood planks give off a seamless, dramatic look. Single-width floors give off a more contemporary look, while mixing the widths can offer a more rustic feel.

Many different benefits come along with installing wide plank hardwood floors in your home, including:

• Added property value.
• Makes your space appear bigger.
• Easier to install.
• More coverage
• Faster installation

How We Install Hardwood Floors

Our master-certified hardwood installers are the best in the business.

We’ll start from scratch and take it from there- removing all traces of old flooring and other debris. Once your subfloor is fully clean and level, we’ll install premium rosin paper underlay, priming the subfloor for a perfect blank slate.

From there, your hardwood planks will be perfectly installed, per manufacturer’s recommendations, along with all the trimmings. Indeed, there are many reasons why many of our hardwood installation clients are repeat customers!
