Benefits of Solid Unfinished Hardwood Flooring

Unlike engineered hardwood, solid hardwood is crafted from a single piece of wood, making it a durable and long-lasting option.

Oak, Maple, and Hickory: With its natural grain patterns and rich colors, solid hardwood flooring offers exceptional durability and a timeless aesthetic. With a wide range of widths up to 5 inches, you’ll find the perfect flooring to complement your home’s style.
Ideal for Above-Ground Spaces: Solid hardwood flooring performs best in above-ground spaces, such as living rooms, dining areas, kitchens, and bedrooms. We advise against installing it in bathrooms or laundry rooms to prevent moisture damage.
Durability and Longevity: The durability of solid hardwood flooring depends on the wood species and the level of protective finish. Moreover, with proper care, these versatile floors can last for many years, even through multiple refinishing cycles. Consequently, because solid hardwood is highly resistant to wear and tear, it is an excellent choice for high-traffic areas.
A Premium Investment: Although solid hardwood flooring may have a higher price point than prefinished hardwood flooring, it represents a long-term investment that provides unmatched beauty and sturdiness. Additionally, factors such as lifetime warranties, advanced finishes, unique textures, or artistic staining techniques contribute to the overall cost. Therefore, solid hardwood flooring is a valuable investment that enhances the resale value of your home.
Sustainability: Many flooring options are made from sustainably sourced materials, therefore promoting environmental responsibility.

Choosing the Right Solid Unfinished Hardwood Flooring

When selecting solid hardwood flooring, consider the following factors:

Wood Species: Different wood species offer unique characteristics in terms of color, grain patterns, and durability. Solid hardwood is available in a variety of species, however Oak, Maple, Hickory and walnut stand out as the hardest and most resistant to wear.
Grade: The grade of solid hardwood determines its overall appearance and quality. Higher grades typically have fewer defects and a more uniform appearance.
Finish: The finish applied to solid hardwood can affect its color, sheen, and durability. Common finishes include polyurethane, wax, and oil.
Installation: Solid hardwood can be installed in various ways, including nailed, glued, or floating. The installation method will depend on factors such as the subfloor and your preference. The thickness and interlocking tongue-and-groove of the wood contribute to a stronger floor system.

Maintenance and Care

General contractors and homeowners should carefully consider the following guidelines for floor installation:

Acclimate the flooring: Before installation, solid hardwood flooring should be acclimated to the room’s temperature and humidity for at least 48 hours. This helps prevent warping and cupping.
Prepare the subfloor: Ensure the subfloor is level, clean, and free of moisture. Any imperfections should be addressed to prevent issues with the hardwood flooring.
Choose the right installation method: Solid hardwood flooring is installed using nails, staples, or glue; however, the appropriate method depends on the type of subfloor and the desired finish.
Use quality supplies: Invest in high-quality installation supplies to ensure a secure and long-lasting flooring installation.

To preserve the beauty and longevity of your floors, follow these care tips:

Regular Cleaning: Sweep or vacuum regularly to remove dirt and debris.
Protect from Moisture: Avoid excessive moisture, which causes warping and damage. Use doormats to catch water and snow.
Periodic Refinishing: As your solid hardwood floors wear over time, refinish them to restore their original appearance.

With proper care and maintenance, solid hardwood floors provide lasting enjoyment for years to come. Call Dynasty Flooring Supply to find your perfect floor.
