  1. 5 Things Homeowners Should Know About Wood Flooring

  2. Types of Wood Solid and engineered hardwood are the two wooden flooring types dominating the market. Both varieties produce beautiful floors. But there is a difference, which is the floor’s composition. Solid hardwood expands and contracts due to humidity and needs installing on the ground floor, whereas engineered hardwood is stable and suits all home levels. However, solid hardwood is twice as durable.

  3. Wood Species There are various types of woods. But some are more durable than others. White Oak and Red Oak are best suited for domestic floors. Maple and Hickory are just as popular. On the other hand, wood species like Cumaru, Brazilian Koa, and Brazilian Cherry are famous for their durability. The hardest woods are better for floors with heavy foot traffic.

  4. Look, Grain, and Color The variety of finishes, species, and styles make Bel Air wood flooring easier than most locations. Those with traditional interiors may want Walnut, Maple, Oak, or Parquet flooring with widths of 2¼ to 3¼ inches. Country-style interiors require wide planks with a distressed look and defined grains. Oak and Maple with random planks should be the best match for colonial interiors.

  5. Finish Types If you live in Bel Air and wood flooring is what you want, consider the finish. The same species appears utterly different with different finishes. Wire-brush, hand-scraped, or other distressed finish creates a different appearance than a clear gloss finish. Pre-finished flooring offers a consistent and robust finish, whereas unfinished floors prevent moisture and dirt penetration.

  6. Installation Cost The overall cost varies according to the chosen wood type, species, and finish. Different companies may charge varied prices. Usually, pre-finished solid hardwood flooring costs about $2.49 to $12.69 per square foot. Pre-finished engineered hardwood, on the other hand, may cost anywhere between $1.69 to $8.79. However, the mentioned prices may still vary depending on many elements.
