Here are some of the many benefits of wooden flooring:
Solid wood flooring
Better known as hardwood flooring, this type of wood flooring is crafted from single pieces of lumber. Solid wood floors are typically categorized by tree species such as oak, hickory, maple, and exotics.
Engineered wood
Don’t be fooled by the word “engineered” – it is very real and looks excellent. It is created by bonding together a hardwood plywood with a layer of real wood veneer on the top using adhesives, heat, and pressure. Engineered wood floors are typically less expensive than traditional solid wood floors.

The materials-only cost of hardwood flooring depends on several factors, including the type of wood chosen, the square footage of the room, and the timeline.
There are so many reasons that more and more homeowners choose hardwood flooring throughout their properties, such as enhanced home value, the timeless look, and the longevity of wood flooring. Wood floors create an appealing ambiance that’s natural, inviting, and universally appreciated.
The cost of solid or engineered wood flooring installation depends on material costs and the time required to remove existing flooring, prepare the area, install the wood flooring, and clean up the space. Installing hardwood floors is complex, but you can trust our experts to do the job right—and quickly! Our wood floor installation services set the industry standard for quality and attention to detail.
Solid wood and engineered hardwood are both exceptionally durable flooring options. Perhaps the biggest difference is refinishing: Solid hardwood floors can be refinished several times due to the depth of the wear layer, so it’s easily repaired if dented or deeply scraped. Engineered wood floors have a much shallower wear layer, though their thickness varies; some can be refinished a couple of times and others not at all.
