Engineered Wood Flooring

Best Engineered Wood Flooring

Engineered wood flooring has grown in popularity in recent years, and it is an excellent modern alternative to solid wood. It is composed of multiple layers of compressed timber and then finished with a top layer of solid wood veneer. As a result, it comes with a variety of practical qualities and boasts that desirable authentic look.

Multiple layers of wood or plywood help to form a very stable core which is less likely to expand or contract when exposed to changes in temperature and humidity. As a result, it is more appropriate for basements and other challenging installations. Best engineered wood flooring can resist high amounts of traffic, the same as laminate wood flooring. It is also great for rooms that tend to experience large amounts of moisture and temperature change. Engineered wood flooring can stand up to damp and heating systems, and that means that they are also great for underfloor heating systems.

Wide Plank Engineered Wood Floors

Installing wide plank flooring can breathe new life into a house because it is associated with luxury and feels special. Wide plank engineered wood floors may use boards that are 8” to 20” or more, creating a more striking and distinctive look that allows the grain and the personality of the wood surface to stand out. Elegant and durable, they can be finished to virtually any color and thousands of looks. For example, acacia wood flooring offers a dramatic look for any room and is rich in color and style.

Wide planks help make a space one-of-a-kind and can add a rustic charm. Wide plank flooring in lighter shades is also gaining popularity in contemporary spaces. It is ideally suited to the larger, free-flowing spaces so often seen in contemporary design. If you install them in large spaces, the wide planks and light engineered wood can give an airy, open feel.

Float Engineered Wood Floor

Wondering whether you should glue down or float the planks? Installing a floating floor is the easiest and the quickest way to get new engineered wood underfoot. Float engineered wood floor is made of planks that aren’t fixed to the subfloor. Instead, floating method uses the weight of the floor itself to keep them in place. In this method, individual planks interlock edge-to-edge to form a single mat-like surface that simply rests on the underlayment. One of the advantages of floating engineered wood flooring is that if it expands and contracts, it’s less likely to become damaged because it’s not rubbing against glue or nails.
