Solid vs. Engineered Hardwood

What’s the difference? Solid hardwood is the traditional version of hardwood flooring. It consists of planks made from a single, solid piece of real wood. Engineered hardwood, on the other hand, is a layered wood floor made from thin slices of hardwood layered on top of another piece of high-quality wood composite such as plywood. Engineered wood is often more cost effective and versatile – and can often be installed on any grade, even in basements.

The durability of your hardwood is determined largely by the thickness of each plank. In addition, other factors include the wear layer and finish.

Standard hardwood planks come in a few different thicknesses. A ½-inch or 3/8-inch thickness is common for engineered hardwood planks, for instance. Solid hardwood floors, on the other hand, are much thicker – often ¾-inch with an added wear layer. This wear layer allows for additional refinishing. This is a selling point of solid hardwood over engineered. Engineered wood can often be sanded, but likely only a single treatment over its lifespan.

Features & Benefits Hardwood

Hardwood flooring has a lot of things going for it when it comes to versatility and durability. Since they come in various natural grains, hardwood floors match almost any decor or color scheme you may already have. As hardwood floors wear, their unique characteristics become more prominent over time.

They are perfect for colder rooms as they retain heat better than other flooring alternatives. They improve indoor air quality and are very quick and easy to clean. Hardwood flooring is also great for smaller spaces because they make the room look bigger.
