Engineered Wood Flooring

Engineered hardwood flooring is a durable and stylish alternative to hardwood flooring solid, offering the same timeless appeal with added stability. It consists of multiple layers, including a strong wood core beneath a hardwood veneer, ensuring both strength and beauty. The top layer is finished using various techniques to enhance its appearance and durability, including:

• Brushed finish – Highlights the natural grain, making knots and lines more prominent.
• Fumed finish – Darkens the wood to emphasize knots and texture.
• Varnish finish – Provides a protective layer for increased durability.
• Matt finish – Offers a smooth, non-glossy surface.
• Whitewashing – Creates white hardwood floors while preserving the wood’s natural grain.
• Staining – Deepens the wood’s grain for a rich, bold look.
• Tumbled edge – Gives a distressed, aged appearance to new flooring.

While many homeowners opt for traditional straight planks, engineered hardwood flooring can also be installed in stylish patterns like herringbone and 3-strip, adding character to any space. Hardwood flooring types of wood vary, but engineered oak remains the most sought-after choice due to its stability and authentic warmth.

Light shades of hardwood floors, such as hardwood floor grey, are particularly popular for their ability to brighten spaces.

To ensure longevity and maintain its beauty, proper cleaning for hardwood floors is essential. Use a hardwood floor cleaner or the best hardwood laminate floor cleaner to remove dirt and preserve the finish.
