Solid vs. Engineered Hardwood: Choosing Your Foundation
Understanding the distinction between solid and engineered choices is the first step in choosing the appropriate hardwood. Solid hardwood is a single, continuous piece of wood that has the advantage of being polished and refinished several times over decades in addition to its traditional beauty. It works well in rooms on the ground floor with consistent humidity. On the other hand, engineered hardwood is made of several layers, with a dimensionally stable core underneath and a real wood veneer on top.
It is ideal for installations in basements or over concrete slabs where solid wood isn't advised because of its layered structure, which makes it extremely resistant to moisture and temperature changes. Although both alternatives offer true wood elegance, the locations in which they can be installed are limited by their construction. Our experts will help you assess your space and choose the perfect, long-lasting product.
Customizing Your Look: Species, Stains, and Finishes
Unmatched design versatility is provided by hardwood flooring. From the delicate textures of oak and maple to the rich tones of walnut and hickory, we offer a wide variety of wood species, each with distinctive grain patterns and hardness levels. Beyond the species, the stain selection significantly alters the appearance, enabling you to switch from light, airy natural looks to rich, traditional espresso tones.
Lastly, the finish defines the shine of your floor and protects it. Options include penetrating oil finishes for a matte, natural look that is simpler to spot-repair, or sturdy polyurethane for a glossy or semi-glossy appearance. To guarantee that your new hardwood floor flawlessly compliments your interior design goal, S&R Flooring Concepts Inc. helps you with every selection.
