Solid or Engineered?
Choosing the Right Hardwood Flooring for Your Home
Selecting the right hardwood flooring starts with understanding how each option performs in different environments. Our knowledgeable team will help you determine which solution best fits your home and your lifestyle.
- Solid Hardwood Flooring: Crafted from a single piece of wood, solid hardwood offers timeless beauty and can be sanded and refinished multiple times over its lifespan. It's an excellent choice for many living spaces where moisture levels remain consistent.
- Engineered Hardwood Flooring: Built with multiple layers for added stability, engineered hardwood performs well in areas where humidity and temperature fluctuate. It offers the beauty of real wood while providing greater versatility throughout the home.

Every hardwood species offers its own unique appearance and personality. Whether you prefer a traditional, rustic, or contemporary design, we'll help you find the right flooring to complement your space.
- Oak: A timeless favorite known for its durability, versatility, and beautiful grain patterns that suit nearly any interior.
- Maple: Clean, smooth, and naturally lighter in color, maple creates a bright, contemporary appearance.

Hardwood Flooring FAQs
Is solid hardwood or engineered hardwood better for my home?
The best option depends on where the flooring will be installed. Solid hardwood is ideal for many living areas and can be refinished multiple times, while engineered hardwood offers greater stability in areas with changing humidity levels.
How long does hardwood flooring need to acclimate before installation?
Hardwood flooring should acclimate inside your home for a minimum of 72 hours before installation. This allows the wood to adjust to your home's temperature and humidity levels, helping minimize the risk of expansion, contraction, or gaps after installation. Our team will make sure your hardwood flooring is properly acclimated before installation begins.
Will hardwood flooring increase my home's value?
Hardwood flooring is one of the most desirable flooring options for homeowners and buyers alike. Its timeless appearance and durability can enhance both the beauty and resale value of your home.
How do I maintain hardwood floors?
Routine sweeping or dust mopping, prompt cleanup of spills, and occasional cleaning with manufacturer-approved hardwood floor products will help keep your floors looking their best.
Can I take hardwood flooring samples home before I buy?
Yes. We encourage customers to borrow hardwood flooring samples from our Nicholasville showroom so they can compare colors and finishes in their own home's lighting before making a final selection.
How long does it take for special-order hardwood flooring to arrive?
Most special-order hardwood flooring products arrive within one to two weeks, depending on the manufacturer and product availability. We'll keep you informed throughout the ordering process and coordinate your installation schedule once your flooring has arrived and completed the recommended acclimation period.
