Best Hardwood Flooring Trends

Whatever your signature style, you’ll find the right hardwood here!

You’ll find rustic options like wide plank natural oak floors with a matte finish and weathered texturing, as well as more eclectic styles, like multi-color wood floors.

What’s currently trending in town? We’re loving the light tan finishes, rich browns, and hints of greys and whites for a weathered appearance.

What Type of Wood Is Used in Hardwood Floors?

Hardwood flooring is sourced from a wide selection of domestic and tree species.

We have a wide range of popular wood choices such as:

• Acacia
• Oak
• Hickory
• Maple
• Cherry
• Pine
• Cork
• Bamboo

Cork and bamboo aren’t technically made from hardwood, but bamboo grass and cork tree bark. Both are considered renewable and eco-friendly because harvesting them doesn’t kill the plant, and they regenerate quickly.

However, many of today’s hardwood forests are also harvested with sustainability and responsibility in mind. Each hardwood species offers different looks, shades, grain patterns, and hardness levels.

What is Engineered Hardwood Flooring?

Did you know that there are two major hardwood flooring families? While they look alike, they’re quite different.

• Engineered hardwood flooring is manufactured using fine, wooden veneers. The planks are bound together to form sturdy cross-grains. These layers play a vital role in your floor’s ongoing endurance. Engineered planks won’t expand or contract from humidity or climate fluctuations. They hold their own against heavy or constant foot traffic and are more affordable than their solid counterparts. An engineered hardwood floor can be sanded and refinished once or twice over its lifespan. Unlike solid hardwood, your engineered floor can be installed on all levels of your home.

• Solid hardwood flooring is the traditional way of enjoying this floor. Crafted from solid hanks of organic wood, solid hardwood flooring’s appeal is widespread. It has heirloom potential and adds ongoing property value if professionally installed, situated, and maintained. Solid hardwood isn’t without its limits. It cannot be installed in spaces below grade and isn’t recommended for kitchens and bathrooms. Still, solid hardwood beckons both beauty-seekers and style chameleons alike. It can be sanded and refinished over its lifespan, and if carefully cared for, your great-grandchildren might one day play on the floor you install today.

Planning Your Hardwood Installation

The type of hardwood flooring you want and the room you want to install it in are interdependent.

Solid hardwood fares best in low-moisture rooms that are above level. Engineered hardwood can be installed on all levels of your home, including basements and more moisture-prone spaces like kitchens, mudrooms, and hallways.

Regardless of how and where you install, we recommend professional hardwood installation. Our experts are here to help with installations of all sizes, offering the latest technologies and tools.

We Have Waterproof Hardwood Floors!

For a more versatile option, consider the modern marvel of waterproof engineered hardwood.

Each plank features a real layer of hardwood at the surface and a waterproof vinyl sublayer below. Install waterproof hardwood flooring in kitchens and bathrooms without worry.

Mos modern wood floors are generally finished with ultra-resilient finish coatings that are highly resistant to scratches, dents, stains, and more, so you can rest assured your gorgeous hardwood planks will stay looking beautiful overall.

Hardwood & Humidity

As the seasonal climate shifts, your flooring challenges are just beginning. A home that’s too cold, too hot, or too humid can have devastating results on your floors.

Hardwood planks can quickly shrink, expand, or warp. To avoid future pitfalls, work with an experienced installer while choosing flooring that’s the best fit for your home.

Maintaining a consistent relative humidity level is likewise of utmost importance. We recommend maintaining a relative humidity level that’s a consistent 42 percent. Tools such as hydrometers and humidistats can help you maintain this level. Other helpful items to have on hand include insulated drapes, dehumidifiers, and air conditioners can also help.
