Hardwood Flooring Species

Hardwood flooring can be made from a wide variety of tree species, both exotic and domestic. Among the more popular flooring options are domestic species such as oak, hickory, maple, or cherry. Each hardwood species offers its unique hardness and moisture-resistance level, with varying degrees of grain variations and hues.

Cork flooring has come into vogue lately for exceptionally good reasons. Here's a fun fact about cork: It comes from oak trees, but the oak trees are not cut down or damaged to harvest the cork. Rather, the cork is created from the bark harvested from Quercus suber oak trees. If you had the facilities to build your own cork, and patience, you could harvest your entire floor from a single tree by waiting for it to grow a new layer of bark. Cork is a durable, flexible, eco-friendly, affordable flooring material that can look homey or elegant, playful, or somber. It all depends on your style and how you use it.

What are the Differences between Solid & Engineered Hardwood?

Solid hardwood and engineered hardwood look similar. However, these two distinct flooring families are built differently.

• Solid hardwood planks are typically a three-fourths" solid piece of hardwood throughout. These are the more traditional form of wood flooring. Each plank is built with genuine hardwood throughout. They can be refinished over the years to eliminate scratches, scuffs, and other blemishes. Solid wood planks are popular for their durability and longevity. They can last for decades – the life of your home – if properly cared for. Solid wood floors are recommended for above-grade, dry rooms. You should avoid them in bathrooms, kitchens, and mudrooms because they can warp overtime due to moisture.

• Engineered hardwood floors are a more contemporary flooring option. Instead of a single piece of hardwood, each plank is made using 3 to 7 layers of composite wood. The surface layer is a genuine hardwood veneer, so from above, engineered wood floors look the same as their solid countertops. Each layer is laminated in a cross-grain direction, which prevents the planks from swelling and shrinking with changes in temperature and humidity.

• Engineered hardwood planks can hold up better to moisture and foot traffic. They’re less likely to warp, cup, and gap in humid conditions. You can install them in basements, kitchens, and other light-moisture areas. However, you may not be able to refinish your engineered wood floors. This depends on how thick the veneer layer is. Higher-quality engineered products have a thicker hardwood veneer and can be refinished just as often as solid wood – meaning they’ll last just as long.

Hardwood Flooring Installation

Hardwood flooring should always be chosen carefully. It can be installed in a variety of interior settings, depending on which product you choose. Solid hardwood flooring fares its best in dry, quiet rooms that are set above grade. While not recommended for kitchens and bathrooms, solid hardwood is perfect for a cozy bedroom or elegant living room. Engineered hardwoods offer greater versatility. Denser and more forgiving, engineered hardwood can manage a greater degree of humidity and moisture.
