Posted by willowsonflooring on April 25th, 2013

Are you looking to purchase wood flooring online but you’re just not sure what separates the really bad ones from the really good ones? The decision will not be an easy one as there are many types of wood flooring on the market today including laminate wood flooring, vinyl wood flooring, real hardwood flooring, and engineered wood flooring. If this is the situation you have found yourself in, we will try to go over a few things that make engineered wood floors the perfect floor for you to install in your home.

Most engineered floors on the market today that are manufactured are designed by having 3 to 12 multiple layers that are glued, pressed together, and cross layered making them a really solid choice when it comes to wood flooring. The centre of the flooring planks is usually built-up with both soft plywood and real hardwood materials. The top layer of the engineered wood plank is incorporated together using a tongue and grove technique and then glued together.

There are many benefits to installing engineered wood flooring in your home, including the fact that they are very affordable, easy to install, easy to care for, and come in a variety of different colours and styles. They are also ideal to install in areas of the home where you wouldn’t be able to install real hardwood flooring like the kitchen area, bathrooms, basements, and other areas of the home that may be prone to moisture issues.

One factor that many homeowners may not realise is that installing engineered wood flooring in your home would offer the same resale value as solid wood flooring would in the event that you would want to sell your home. What this means is that you can get the same value for your money when you install engineered wood flooring as you would when you install real wood flooring. The main difference between engineered wood flooring and solid wood flooring will be the fact that over time you will only be able to refinish engineered wood flooring only once or twice as compared to solid wood flooring which you will be able to refinish several times over to keep it looking like new.
