Advantages of Engineered Hardwood Flooring

First of all, what is engineered wood?

Engineered hardwood is made from 100% solid wood. It has a plywood core and a thick wood veneer on top. Once installed, it is visually indistinguishable from solid hardwood, one of the most popular types of wood flooring.

Engineered wood can save you money on exotic or premium hardwoods.


Engineered wood floors look the same as solid hardwoods and come in almost as many varieties. However, because of its cheaper plywood core, even the more exotic and expensive wood has become cheaper. With engineered hardwood, your flooring budget will go further.

Resistant to moisture and temperature fluctuations

 

One of the most significant advantages of engineered wood flooring over solid wood is that it can withstand a wider range of temperature and humidity fluctuations, making it ideal for a wider range of climates and room uses. Also, unlike most types of solid wood, engineered wood can be used for underfloor heating.

 

Installation of engineered hardwood is cheaper, faster, and can be DIY

 

If you buy engineered hardwood as a split flooring system, then this is a more affordable and labor-saving option. So you can save on man-hours and even install it yourself! Engineered hardwood is ideal for DIY flooring, while solid hardwood only requires professional installation.
