Engineered wood flooring has been one of the more remarkable innovations to hit the market in flooring. Engineered wood flooring is not made from solid hardwood but may be your best substitute to solid hardwood floor. It consists of several layers, with only the top layer being the actual hardwood that gives it a beautiful appearance. The layers below are explicitly designed to give you the greatest protection and the most functional flooring for just about any room of the house.
Engineered wood flooring has many advantages over solid hardwood that make it very appealing. Engineered plank floors will not contract or expand with changes in temperature and humidity as solid hardwood does.
Engineered plank flooring comes in various types of wood, finishes, and stains. You can also choose unfinished or pre-finished hardwood, but if you’re looking for a trouble-free project, then it’s best to go with pre-finished. This way after you have the engineered wood floor installed, you don’t have to hassle applying any finish or stain. You can just sit back and take pleasure in your new flooring.
