Engineered Hardwood Floor

Engineered wood floors can be a great alternative to solid wood floors. Engineered wood floors look identical to solid wood planks on the surface, but instead of having wood all the way through, engineered wood planks have a piece of baltic birch plywood as the core, with a layer of hardwood on the surface and the bottom of the plank. The baltic birch plywood core offers stability because of its many thin layers, glued together and going in different directions. Engineered wood floors were designed to lay down where solid wood floors are not able to go, such as concrete or radiant heat floors. Engineered wood floors have the potential to be refinished similar to hardwood floors, and like hardwood, they also increase value to your home.
