Solid vs. Engineered Hardwood: Choosing Your Foundation
Knowing the distinction between engineered and solid hardwoods is the first step in choosing the best one. 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 timeless beauty. Ground-level spaces with consistent humidity are perfect for it. In contrast, engineered hardwood is made up of several layers, with a dimensionally stable core underneath and a real wood veneer on top.
Because of its layered structure, which makes it extremely resistant to moisture and temperature changes, it can be installed over concrete slabs or in basements where solid wood is not advised. Genuine wood elegance is offered by both alternatives, but where they can be installed depends on their structure. Our professionals will assist you in determining the ideal, long-lasting product for your space.
Customizing Your Look: Species, Stains, and Finishes
There is no greater design freedom than hardwood flooring. From the delicate textures of oak and maple to the rich tones of walnut and hickory, we offer a wide range of wood species, each with distinctive grain patterns and hardness levels. Beyond the species, the stain selection significantly alters the appearance, giving you the option of deep, traditional espresso hues or light, airy natural looks.
Ultimately, the finish defines the sheen and safeguards your floor. Durable polyurethane for a glossy or semi-gloss appearance and penetrating oil finishes for a matte, natural appearance that is simpler to spot-repair are two options. To guarantee that your new hardwood floor completely compliments your interior design idea, S&R Flooring Concepts Inc. helps you with every selection.
