Engineered Hardwood
What is Engineered Hardwood?
- Engineered hardwood construction has durable, high-performance qualities.
- It is constructed with multi-layers of wood; each layer is positioned in a different direction. This construction prevents the engineered hardwood from warping and bowing the way a hardwood floor might in moist areas.
- Its advantage over solid hardwood is that the construction allows for installation in most grade levels of the home, including below ground with a protective moisture barrier installed.
- A hardwood veneer gives the natural beauty and look to the engineered floor just as a solid hardwood floor does.
- Engineered hardwood offers easy care and maintenance.
What is the Style of Engineered Hardwood?
Engineered hardwood can offer a variety of style for your home:
- Available in today’s hottest species; hickory, oak, maple and more.
- There are multiple finishes available in matte, semi-gloss, and high-gloss.
- To add visual interest to your floor, engineered hardwood comes in a variety of surface effects such as hand scraped for a time worn appearance, distressed for a slightly rustic appearance, or wire-brushed.
Whether your style ranges from classic to contemporary, you can find a hardwood floor that best suits your home. No matter where in the home you install engineered hardwood, you can be sure it will be a beautiful, eye-catching statement with a durable surface.
