Solid vs. engineered hardwood flooring
- Solid Hardwood: Solid hardwood is, as you might expect, a solid piece of wood, through and through. It’s exceptionally stable, durable, and offers one of the greatest lifespans in flooring
- Engineered Hardwood: Engineered flooring is still real hardwood, with a veneer of your species choice, but the veneer is attached to plied layers and topped with a heavily resistant wear layer on top.
You can choose your favorite species, such as a mahogany wood; stain colors, and finishes for both floors. And both can be refinished to remove years of wear and bring them back to a like-new finish, which will last for another few decades before refinishing again.
Both solid and engineered materials are a great choice and are often installed together in the same home. When the solid variety isn't a good fit for a specific space, just move over to an engineered for the continuity that will make your home look magnificent.
