What hardwood is and isn’t
One of the most important things to know about hardwood
flooring is that it can never be installed below grade. On or above grade works
fine for these installations, but basements, for example, are no place for this
material. It’s also important to note that this floor covering should always be
given ample time to acclimate to your own space. For most homes, this time
frame is from 24 to 72 hours, based on the humidity levels present. Your
flooring associate will be able to give you more pertinent information on this
fact when you visit.
Types of hardwood
In the hardwood flooring category, you have two specific
types of flooring. The solid option, which is one piece all the way through
from top to bottom, and engineered flooring, which simply uses a veneer of the
actual material. Both are real, and both look just as good, but certain
characteristics are prominent in each. Where one doesn’t work, the other might
be a good alternative. For the sake of maintaining a look of total continuity
throughout your home, it might be worth discussing this before you leave.
You’ll love the fact that hardwood flooring, whether solid or engineered, can be refinished when signs of wear begin to show through. This process helps make your floors look brand new again, removing decades of use, and you’re even able to change stain color and finish type during the process if you prefer.
