Considering hardwood flooring for your home is a significant decision that demands careful consideration. While it proves to be a valuable investment for many, hardwood may not be suitable for every space. At Allwein Carpet One Floor & Home in Annville, Pennsylvania, we guide you through an array of flooring options. There are two primary types of hardwood to choose from: solid hardwood and engineered hardwood.
Solid Hardwood Flooring:
Traditional and timeless, solid wood flooring consists of planks made entirely from genuine hardwood, including premium slices of oak, maple, hickory, birch, mahogany, or other wood species. While it enhances the beauty and real estate value of your home, solid hardwood is best suited for relatively climate-controlled spaces on or above grade. Its porous nature makes it susceptible to moisture absorption, swelling, and warping. Proper installation in appropriate spaces and maintenance of humidity levels are essential to mitigate these issues. A notable advantage is the ability to refinish solid wood planks multiple times, ensuring a floor that looks brand new for decades.
Engineered Hardwood Flooring:
Contrary to a common misconception, engineered hardwood is indeed real wood. Comprising three to seven layers of composite wood, these planks feature a genuine hardwood veneer on the surface, providing the same aesthetic appeal as solid wood. The layered construction prevents expansion or contraction due to humidity changes, making engineered hardwood a suitable choice for moisture-prone areas. It can be installed in basements and light-moisture spaces like hallways and foyers. While engineered hardwood may not have the same lifespan as solid wood due to a thinner veneer, high-quality options with thicker surface layers are available, offering lasting durability.
Natural hardwood flooring possesses timeless appeal, extending beyond passing trends. In today's landscape, hardwood floors are more popular than ever, offering a vast array of styles suitable for various settings, whether classic or contemporary. Traditional, rustic planks highlight natural grains, while narrow and high-polished woods bring a sleek, modern touch. The options include a variety of plank lengths, widths, grain patterns, and finishes, allowing you to choose the style that best fits your preferences and complements any space.
When it comes to hardwood flooring, meticulous installation is crucial. Many hardwoods are not suitable for areas like kitchens or bathrooms with heavy foot traffic. Ideal spaces include bedrooms, stairways, hallways, living rooms, and dining rooms, where the atmosphere is dry. For finished basements, kitchens, or bathrooms, opt for engineered hardwood versions.
Achieving a proper installation is the initial step toward a lifetime of satisfaction with your new hardwood flooring. Our in-house installation team possesses the necessary tools and experience to execute a flawless installation. Supported by The Beautiful Guarantee for each project, you'll question why you'd consider any alternative. As a substantial investment, properly installed hardwood flooring ensures decades of enjoyment and can significantly enhance your property's value.
