Solid Hardwood Flooring
Solid hardwood flooring is a completely wooden plank, where its thickness ranges from 3/4" to 5/16". Solid wood flooring can also be sanded and refinished multiple times during its life.
An option that we recommend our customers to consider is the use of reclaimed flooring: reclaimed flooring is flooring that has been salvaged and that has been cleared for re-installation, the flooring will look the same way as new hardwood floors from the mill, if it's an addition or continuation then using reclaimed flooring might be the best option (aesthetically).
As previously mentioned before, we do offer the option to lace/splice in the floor, so that there is a clean transition.
Engineered Flooring
Engineered wood floors are real wood floors made from layered composite veneers, due to the alternating grain paths that each veneer has the wood will resist expansion and contraction when fluctuations in humidity and temperature occur.
This type of flooring can sometimes be sanded and refinished depending on the thickness of its top layer; engineered wood flooring can be installed above, on or below grade.
As one may be led to think, engineered flooring is substantially less expensive than solid hardwood floors.
Laminate Flooring
Laminate Flooring has gained popularity due to its ease of installation, price and longevity; the material utilizes a thin layer of a picture to simulate natural flooring.
Surprisingly, laminates are only manufactured to look and feel like real flooring but they do not contain any wood materials.
Installation
Traditional nail down, glue down, patterned floors, borders, medallions, etc.
Refinishing Existing Floors
Cleaning and Coating (Urethane or Wax), stripping (sand and finish to customers choice of color and/or 3 coats of polyurethane)
Distressing
Hand scrape with or against grains, wire brush, etc.
