    No other flooring option gives you the warmth, beauty and value of wood.

    • Choose from either solid wood or engineered hardwood flooring, both are available in a variety of species and sizes (figure A).

    • Solid wood flooring grades range from "select" to "rustic". They can be installed at or above grade and can be sanded and refinished many times (figure B).

    • If installing wood flooring below grade or over concrete, choose an engineered hardwood.

    • Its cross-ply construction (figure C) makes it less likely to be affected by changes in humidity.
