As the consumer demand for hardwood floors has grown so has the manufacturer's ability to produce better quality finishes and superior construction techniques. The result of those advancements is that wood floors can now be installed throughout the home and over a wide variety of subfloors.

Rich, inviting hardwood floors are not only beautiful to live with, they can also add value to your home at resale time. Plus, today, hardwood types, options and applications are more diverse and delightful than ever.

Hardwood certainly answers the need for beauty in your home. The elegant look of a hardwood floor can add warmth and character to any room. In fact, the natural characteristics of wood add depth and a visual appearance that many other types of floors try to duplicate.

All solid wood floors can react to the presence of moisture. If there is too much moisture it may cause the wood planks to cup, or buckle. This is why it is important when installing a solid strip floor to leave the proper
expansion area around the perimeter and to acclimate the wood prior to installation.
It is also important to keep the relative humidity at between 40  55%. Doing this will help minimize any
movement within the floor. In the long run, only real wood floors will add beauty and
value for years to come. The most common wood species used for solid wood floors are
red oak, white oak, and maple, although they are available in many other wood species.

When a log is milled into flooring at the factory the wood is picked for grade (appearance) the better or more uniform
the appearance the higher the grade. Both Prefinished and Unfinished wood flooring have similar grading but the names
may be different depending on the manufacture.
