Factors to Consider When Purchasing Hardwood
- Type – There is variance in the hardness of wood and therefore different varieties are appropriate for different areas of your home. For example, in a high-traffic area or a heavily used room, you will want a hardwood with extra durability that can withstand such use over time.
- Color – Color has a big influence on the look of your home and getting the color right depends on the wood’s natural color and grain as well as the stain you choose. The lighting in your home also plays a role in how the wood appears, so it’s important to factor that in as well.
- Width – The width of the hardwood plank is a design detail that has a dramatic influence on the look and feel of your floor. Wider widths complement large rooms but can overwhelm a smaller area. Selecting the right width that works with the style and architecture of your home is an important design element that you will want to consider.
- Finish – Many flooring manufacturers offer extra tough urethane finishes which help the hardwood floor stand up to heavy use and foot traffic. These finishes also allow the wood to maintain its luster without wax and refinishing.
-
Edging – The way the edges and ends of the boards are cut defines the edge detail. The options are: square, beveled and micro-beveled, and eased. Each has a way of defining the individual boards and will create a different look.
What is the Difference Between Solid and Engineered Hardwood?
You have a myriad of options such as wood species, styles, and plank sizes when it comes to shopping for hardwood at Interiors & Textiles. Deciding between solid and engineered hardwood is perhaps the toughest choice as solid hardwood has a classic appeal but engineered hardwood's superior design is proof of what modern flooring technology can do.
Composed entirely of hardwood throughout, solid hardwood retains its original appeal on the market made from authentic solid wood. In contrast, engineered hardwood has been manufactured out of cross-cut planks and is designed with a top layer of solid wood.
Main Differences Between Solid & Engineered Hardwood:
- Solid hardwood is 100% genuine wood
- Solid wood planks are typically heavier and denser than engineered wood
- Engineered hardwood has a veneer of hardwood laminated onto a softer wood core
- Engineered hardwood features better overall wear performance and can withstand more moisture
The design team at Interiors & Textiles can help you understand whether solid or engineered hardwood is right for your home.
