Hardwood Floors

Hardwood floors add a beautiful and natural touch. They also add value to your home and are highly praised in the resale home market. Today's hardwood floors have made advances in style, durability, maintenance and care, making them more widely usable throughout the home. There are hundreds of choices in style and color with today's options even spanning into exotic hardwoods. Most wood floors are available in several grades in a wide range of prices.

Types and looks

Maple, Oak, Hickory, Pine, Beech, Elm, and Pecan are just a few of the natural and authentic looks and feel of wood floors that will bring your home to life.

Styles

Woods styles come in strips, planks, or parquet tiles with numerous edge treatments such as square, micro, and beveled edges. You can choose from a wide range of stains to complement your décor and from two types of finishes: urethane or wax. Unfinished wood floors are also available and typically cost less. However, these may require re-coating every five to seven years.

Today's wood floors and their durability

Today's wood floors have been designed to withstand the wear and friction as a result of our busy lives. Technological advances in finishes have made possible the increased stain and wear-resistant characteristics.

Maintenance & Care

To bring back the original shine, simply apply a refresher. Wood floors can be renewed by applying additional coats of urethane to the surface. In extreme cases, after exhaustive wear over long periods of time, wood floors can be sanded and urethane coated to restore the original appearance and texture. A wood floor will last a lifetime with proper maintenance.
