Solid Hardwood Flooring

Solid wood flooring comes in 3 basic types:

1. Strip Flooring
Most commonly used, strips come in widths ranging from 1.5 inches to 3.25 inches. They are installed by nailing to the sub floor.

2. Plank Flooring
Plank boards are at least 3 inches wide. They may be screwed to the sub floor, or nailed. Screw holes can be covered with wooden plugs.

3. Parquet Flooring
Comes in standard patterns of 6"x6" blocks. Specialty patterns may range up to 36" square units. Parquet often achieves dramatic geometric effects of special design patterns.

Engineered Flooring

Engineered Floors are constructed using several layers of woods which adds to the structural integrity and dimensional stability of the flooring and allows these products to be used on any level of your home, including the basement. The top layer is usually hardwood that can be re-surfaced up to 3 times.
