Engineered vs. Solid Hardwood: Which Works Best For Me?

Hardwood flooring can enhance virtually any space it is in. However, there are some things to consider when selecting your style of flooring (and that doesn’t just include the stain color or plank size!) We offer both solid and engineered hardwood flooring, and both have wonderful qualities! Here’s a closer look at both types of flooring.

 

 

Solid Wood planks are the traditional form of hardwood flooring. Each plank is typically ¾ inch thick and made of a single slice of wood. The main advantage of solid hardwood flooring is that your floors can be refinished over the years as they show signs of wear. Refinished hardwood floors have scratches, dents, stains, and other blemishes eliminated, and they can even be styled with different hues and textures.

 

Keep in mind the following:

• Solid hardwood is it can warp in moisture-prone settings.

 

• Hardwood is naturally porous and will swell when exposed to humidity and water. This can cause cracking, gapping, cupping, and other issues.

 

• For homeowners and businesses that want to install their new flooring in areas where moisture may be an issue, we recommend engineered hardwood.

 

Engineered Hardwood flooring is becoming a favorite for our local Southlake, Arlington, and Fort Worth customers, and for good reason!

 

Engineered hardwood is constructed using laminated layers of composite wood with a solid hardwood veneer on the top layer (yep, it’s real wood!). The layers are placed in cross-grain directions, which prevents each plank from swelling and shrinking as much. While solid hardwood is only recommended for above-grade, dry spaces, engineered wood products are more versatile. You can install it in basements, along with light-moisture areas like kitchens, hallways, and entryways.

 

 

Keep in mind the following:

• Lower-quality engineered planks that have thinner veneers that can’t be sanded down and refinished.
• We offer premium engineered hardwood collections that have thicker veneers and can be refinished just as many times as a typical solid wood plank.

 

Where Can My Hardwood Be Installed?

Hardwood flooring can be installed in many areas, like living rooms, bedrooms, offices, and anywhere where high moisture levels are common. Solid hardwood flooring must be nailed down, so it can only be installed on above-grade levels of your home, while engineered hardwood flooring can be installed in basements and finished attics as well. Our waterproof, genuine hardwood flooring is a wonderful option for kitchens and bathrooms, however, we suggest discussing all options with one of our flooring experts before choosing any type of flooring for your space.

 

 

We offer both professional installation services and select warranties on all of our flooring options!
