Engineered Flooring FAQs

What is engineered flooring?

Engineered flooring is a type of real wood flooring made with a genuine hardwood surface bonded to multiple layers of plywood or high-density fiberboard. This construction provides greater stability than solid hardwood.

How is engineered flooring different from solid hardwood?

Engineered flooring is more resistant to moisture and temperature changes, making it less likely to expand or contract. It can also be installed over concrete slabs and in areas where solid hardwood is not recommended.

Is engineered flooring suitable for homes and offices?

Yes. Engineered flooring is ideal for both residential and commercial spaces due to its durability, stability, and professional appearance.

Can engineered flooring be installed in kitchens or basements?

Engineered flooring can be installed in kitchens and some basements when moisture levels are properly managed. Our team evaluates your space to determine suitability.

How long does engineered flooring last?

With professional installation and proper care, engineered flooring can last 20–30 years or longer, depending on the wear layer thickness and usage.

Can engineered flooring be refinished?

Many engineered floors can be lightly sanded and refinished, depending on the thickness of the top wood layer. Our team can advise you on refinishing options.

Is engineered flooring easy to maintain?

Yes. Routine sweeping or vacuuming and occasional damp mopping keep engineered flooring looking its best. Avoid excessive water exposure.
