Advantages of Engineered Hardwood Flooring
Engineered hardwood flooring looks just like solid hardwood. Engineered hardwood flooring is made up of from 3 to 7 layers that are laminated together. They are available in either strips or planks, and in parquet patterns as well.
-
Versatility
-
Engineered hardwood flooring can be used in damp areas such as basements and kitchens.
Expansion
-
Engineered hardwood flooring is made in alternating lengthwise and widthwise layers, making it resistant to expansion and contraction, which cause floors to warp.
Installation
-
Engineered hardwood floors can be installed over surfaces that other flooring cannot, including radiant heating systems.
Warranty
-
Engineered hardwood floors come with warranties of up to 25 years, depending on the manufacturer and whether or not the floors are pre-finished.
Maintenance
-
Engineered hardwood floors are very low maintenance, never needing to be sanded. They only need to be refinished a couple of times over their life span.
