White Oak Flooring: What Are the Options?

Looking for the perfect flooring for your style and space? At Stone and Tile, we offer a wide selection of white oak flooring and other engineered wood flooring options in which each board is made up of multiple layers of material, rather than a single piece of solid hardwood. Explore our beautiful collections and choose from a variety of colors, finishes, and textures. We also offer a huge selection of laminate wood flooring. 

White oak flooring absorbs stain easily and can be finished in virtually any color. It can be treated with a variety of techniques to distress the surface that gives the wood an antique and weathered look for a one-of-a-kind appearance. It offers both exceptional durability and fashion-forward design, bringing the old touch to a modern look. With its amazing appearance, white oak flooring will increase the beauty of your home.

What differentiates white oak flooring from red oak and maple flooring is the fact that it has a grey or brown undertone to it with a cooler hue. It also has a much smoother grain, giving it a more modern aesthetic. That’s why white oak is a lot more versatile and can fit in with more interior designs than some other wood floors. White oak can effortlessly elevate the style of your home or commercial space.

White Oak Hardwood Flooring

With light color tones that reflect light, white oak hardwood flooring can provide a modern look with a vintage feel which fits well with many modern farmhouse or industrial styles. It will brighten and open up your space. Besides, the light colors are known to show less dirt, scratches, and dents than darker wood floors, and that means less cleaning and maintenance. You can easily clean white oak floors with a mix of vinegar and water.

White oak flooring is also durable and resilient, so it is commonly used for flooring surfaces in both commercial and residential settings. It is harder than red oak flooring and is more resistant to denting. Besides, white oak doesn’t expand or contract as much due to changing humidity as red oak, and when combined with a strong, engineered core, it is perfect for use in kitchens and entryways.

Engineered white oak wood flooring is highly durable thanks to multiple layers of hardwood backing that are glued together to form a strong core. It is a versatile hardwood option for areas where humidity and temperature could be a concern, like basements, or over concrete slabs, or radiant heating systems. It is typically installed in rooms that are below ground level or in environments that experience slightly higher levels of relative humidity. Engineered white oak flooring also gives you the benefit of strength and durability coupled with the look of solid wood.

Unfinished White Oak Flooring

Unfinished white oak flooring is designed to be sanded and stained on-site, while prefinished hardwood flooring is finished and stained by the manufacturer, which simplifies the installation process on-site. Unfinished white oak flooring is fairly porous and takes stain easily, and it can be treated with a variety of techniques to give a new floor the look of a century-old surface. Prefinished white oak hardwood flooring can be finished and stained in a wide variety of colors, from light and airy to dark and dramatic.

There are few wood flooring options that are as versatile, durable, and character-filled as white oak flooring that can add warmth and a luxurious feel to any room. It conveys authentic hardwood character, and it is a smart choice for both quality and design reasons. Whether you install it in the bedroom, living room, or even basement, your space will feel brighter and more open. But if you want something different, you can explore our selection of high-quality hickory flooring that also offers a beautiful natural look.
