How to Style Your Hardwood Flooring

Hardwood flooring comes in various styles, from airy and modern light wood to rustic and traditional dark wood.

You’ll find extra wide planks, which are especially trendy right now, along with beautiful texturing made through hand-scraping, wire-brushing, and other signature craftsmanship techniques.

We have the best domestic and exotic hardwood species to choose from, including:

• Oak
• Hickory
• Mahogany
• Maple
• Birch
• Walnut

Each has its own characteristic shades, grain patterns, and hardness levels. For instance, hickory is the hardest wood grown in North America, making it a wise option for homes with pets and small children.

All our hardwood collections come prefinished in a variety of stain and shine levels, from matte to glossy.

Should I Choose Solid or Engineered Hardwood Flooring?

There are two main types of hardwood planks: engineered hardwood flooring and solid hardwood flooring.

• Solid hardwood flooring is made from a single piece of premium hardwood. Although visually stunning and value-enhancing, solid hardwood is only recommended for dry rooms that are on or above ground level.
• Engineered hardwood flooring is created by laminating layers of wood composite together with a genuine hardwood veneer at the surface. It’s better at handling moisture and heavy foot traffic, thanks to its special construction. We recommend engineered wood floors in our region, due to our wet and humid climate. Planks can be installed on any level of your home, including finished basements.

What to Consider Before Installing Hardwood Flooring

Hardwood flooring is always in demand, but proper preparation and research should take place well before you schedule your installation.

A proper foundation is needed for your hardwood floor's ongoing success. Maintaining your home’s relative humidity is a key component. Floor protectors on your furnishings will go a long way toward protecting your recent investment.

Install your hardwood flooring with care. Engineered hardwood flooring fares best in the Great Bear Rainforest with its constant humidity. However, if you plan to refinish your floor frequently, solid hardwood flooring has more potential.
