Hardwood flooring is a naturally beautiful flooring option that comes in a wide variety of different options. Choose from traditional or exotic hardwood species, warm or cool tones, even choose different widths of planks. The most common question we hear from homeowners is what the difference between solid and engineered hardwood is. Solid hardwood is one piece of wood that has a finished surface, whereas engineered hardwood has multiple read wood veneers pressed together with a finished surface. 

What is the Best Type of Wood?

Right now popular trends in hardwood flooring include hand-scraped rustic looks. What used to be the only way you could get this look was by tearing out wood from an old barn, can be purchased as new! Hardwood is an allergy friendly flooring option and is very easy to clean. Remember to clean up liquid spills and messes as to prevent damage and staining.
