As your local hardwood experts, we can determine which type of hardwood flooring would be best for your home. Engineered and solid hardwood look alike from the surface but are constructed differently.

• Solid hardwood is the more traditional option because it has a relatively uniform construction. These planks feature a uniform construction comes in sizes that are usually ¾” thick. Solid hardwood flooring is beautiful and adds real estate value to your home, but it is limited in where you can install it. It should be kept in dry, cool spaces of your home that do not see much foot traffic, like a bedroom or home office.

• Engineered hardwood flooring has a unique construction. Engineered planks have various layers that are pressed in different directions. This counteracts wood’s tendency to expand, so engineered hardwood flooring is more dimensionally stable. Given its extra strength and stability, engineered hardwood can be installed below, on, and above ground. Although engineered hardwood isn’t waterproof, it can handle moisture and humidity better. We recommend choosing engineered hardwood over solid hardwood if you live in a home with children and pets.

Where Can I Install Hardwood Flooring?

Hardwood flooring doesn’t fare as well in a kitchen or bathroom, but there are options for nearly every other space under the roof. Solid hardwood is best reserved for quiet, dry spaces, whereas an engineered plank is considerably more adaptable. Need help finding the right hardwood flooring to manage your typical days at home?
