FLOOR TYPES

Solid Wood is milled from one piece of wood and is generally used when installing over a wood

subfloor where the hardwood will be attached to the subfloor. It comes unfinished or prefinished.
• Prefinished Wood
  Flooring Pre-finished wood flooring is hardwood flooring sanded and finished at the mill. Finishes are
  applied in controlled, dust-free environments. High-tech processes insure beautiful durable finishes.
•

Unfinished Wood Flooring
  Unfinished flooring provides you with more stain color and finish options, especially if you want
  to match existing color schemes or furniture.
  Engineered flooring is produced by adhering layers of real hardwood with a plywood backing or
Medium Density Fiberboard (MDF). The bonding process makes this type of flooring less likely to be
affected by changes in humidity. Engineered wood flooring make an excellent choice over concrete
sub-floors, radiant heat or areas with higher moistures. Most engineered floors can be refinished
depending on the thickness of the veneer (top wear layer), and the skill of the craftsmen.
  LAMINATE FLOORING is a photographed image of finished hardwood and can not be refinished.
It is a multi-layered product developed to perform as a highly durable, easy-to-clean-floor and comes
prefinished. Laminate flooring often comes in three different forms; strips, planks, or squares. They are
extremely durable and highly resistant to scratches. Although not waterproof, laminate floors are more
resistant to water damage than traditional wood floors. Most manufacturers guarantee the surface will
not fade or wear through. The high-tech surface of a laminate floor is designed to be cleaned by
vacuuming and occasional damp mopping.
