What Is Engineered Hardwood Flooring?

Many customers are surprised to learn just how comparable solid and engineered hardwood can be in look and feel.

Here’s a closer look at these two types of hardwood.

• Engineered hardwood flooring has a sturdy composition comprised of hardwood veneers and resins, pressed together in durable cross-grains. It’s a denser floor that looks and feels like solid hardwood. Engineered hardwood resists warping and bending from humidity and can be refinished once or twice. It readily manages heavy foot traffic, pets, and children Engineered hardwood is available in a range of colors, species, and styles.

• Solid hardwood flooring is the original form of hardwood. While upkeep and installation are more expensive, solid hardwood has incredible return on investment if installed and cared for properly. Solid hardwood should only be installed in above-grade areas of your interior like bedrooms, hallways, and living rooms. It can be refinished multiple times to enhance finish, re-stain, and sand down imperfections.

Can Hardwood Floors Manage Humidity?

Maintaining healthy hardwood requires careful attention to your interior climate.

Keep a humidity gauge in the area before, during, and after your hardwood installation. In some cases, a dehumidifier may be necessary to protect your planks from warping.

Where Can Hardwood Floors Be Installed?

We recommend all hardwood flooring be installed by a professional.

Our stores offer installation services for most flooring products, as well as select warranties.

 Here are a few installation tips to consider before scheduling your installation:

• Solid hardwood should be installed in above-grade areas including interior living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways.
• Engineered hardwood can be installed in areas below grade, including finished basements.
• Most hardwood should be avoided in high-moisture areas, e.g., kitchens, laundry rooms, or bathrooms.
