Solid Hardwood & Engineered Hardwood
Both solid and engineered hardwood flooring have their own set of advantages and can enhance the beauty and functionality of your home. Your choice will ultimately depend on your specific needs, budget, and the environmental conditions of your home
- Solid hardwood offers timeless appeal and long-term durability with the option for multiple refinishes. Each plank is made from a single piece of hardwood. Common species include oak, maple, cherry, and walnut. Solid hardwood is highly durable and can last for many decades if properly maintained. It can be sanded and refinished multiple times, which helps to maintain its appearance over the years. However, it tends to be more susceptible to changes in temperature and humidity, which can cause expansion or contraction. Solid hardwood is best suited for dry, quiet spaces on or above grade.
- Engineered hardwood provides greater stability and versatility, making it suitable for various environments and installation methods. It's made from multiple layers of wood. The top layer is a real hardwood veneer, while the underlying layers are typically made of plywood or high-density fiberboard (HDF). Engineered hardwood is more durable and can handle a variety of environmental conditions. It is less susceptible to moisture and temperature changes compared to solid hardwood.

Frequently Asked Questions About Hardwood
- Can I have hardwood floors if I have pets? - Yes! Hardwood floors can work in a home with pets, but some additional care and precautions are necessary to keep them looking their best. Choose durable hardwood species and finishes, use protective measures like rugs and mats, and maintain a regular cleaning routine. By taking these steps, you can enjoy the beauty of hardwood floors while accommodating your furry friends
- Will my hardwood floors expand if I live near the lake? - Living near a lake does present some challenges for maintaining hardwood floors due to the potential for increased humidity. However, with proper installation, humidity control, and maintenance, you can minimize the effects of expansion and contraction. Consider engineered hardwood for greater stability, use dehumidifiers to control indoor moisture levels, and promptly address any water issues to protect your flooring investment.
- Is hardwood flooring approved for radiant heat? - Hardwood flooring can be successfully used with radiant heat systems, with engineered hardwood generally being the more suitable choice due to its stability and better performance with temperature fluctuations. Proper installation, temperature control, and humidity management are key to ensuring that the hardwood flooring and radiant heat system work harmoniously. Always follow the manufacturer’s recommendations and consider consulting with professionals to achieve the best results.
