Types of hardwood
We make it easy for you to pick the perfect hardwood. Our expert staff will give you the personal attention big chain stores simply can't match. Below is a sampling of what we carry. Stop by our showroom four our expert advise before buying your next floor.
SOLID HARDWOOD — Solid hardwood floors are comprised of 100% wood. Solid wood is milled from a single 3/4" thick piece of hardwood. Because of its thickness, a solid hardwood floor can be sanded and refinished over several generations of use. Solid wood flooring expands and contracts with changes in your home's relative humidity.
ENGINEERED WOOD — Engineered wood is produced with three to five layers of hardwood. Each layer is stacked in a cross-grain configuration and bonded together under heat and pressure. As a result, engineered wood flooring is less likely to be affected by changes in humidity and can be installed at all levels of the home.

What to look forward to with hardwood floors
When you choose hardwood flooring, you might think that personalization of the material is impossible. Quite the contrary: You have plenty of options that assure the look you’ve hoped for, and that matches your interior design perfectly. You can start with a species selection that is everything you want and need it to be. Rated from soft to hard, the more active your household, the harder the species you should choose. This helps alleviate the possibility of premature wear and helps your floors reach their expected lifespan.
Stain color and finish options are other ways you can tone your overall flooring look. For instance, stain colors range from very light to very dark and create an overall ambiance that speaks volumes to your guests. With finishes such as hand scraped or distressed, you can also make sure signs of wear and tear are well hidden. Scratches and scuffs simply will not show on these finish types, and you’ll enjoy your chosen look for years to come.
Once wear and tear does begin to show, you can simply refinish your floors to bring them back to a like-new finish. This process works to strip your flooring of decades of wear and tear. The underlying “new” finish is then stained and finished once again, leaving you with another few decades before the process should be redone.
