ABOUT ENGINEERED
Engineered floors are a type of flooring that is made by layering different materials together. The top layer is usually made of a thin slice of hardwood, while the base layers are composed of strong, stable plywood or fiberboard. This construction gives engineered floors several advantages over solid hardwood floors.
​
For one, engineered floors are more resistant to moisture and changes in temperature and humidity, which can cause solid hardwood floors to warp or buckle. Additionally, engineered floors are often less expensive than solid hardwood floors, while still providing the same beautiful look and feel.
​
Engineered floors are available in a wide range of wood species, colors, and finishes, making it easy to find a style that suits your home decor. They are also easy to install, with many options available in a click-lock or tongue-and-groove design that can be installed as a floating floor or glued down. Overall, engineered floors are a popular and practical choice for homeowners who want the look of hardwood without the cost or maintenance.
