Wooden
flooring create a warm and rustic appeal to any contemporary
interior design while adding value to your house. Installing
authentic wood, however, requires a bit of an investment of both time
and money. For a cost-effective solution, most homeowners simply
prefer engineered wooden floors; no one will know the difference,
anyway.
Engineered
wood flooring is customized wooden flooring initially developed for
the basement or the concrete slab of the first floor. After 20 years
of innovations, the technology now enables the products to be
installed anywhere, even in hanging places. The flooring is still
made out of real wood, but is now more stable and durable because of
its multiple-layered engineered wood.
Unlike
solid wood planks, engineered flooring is less vulnerable to changes
with the weather, which increases its tolerance to moisture levels.
Most of these products are applied over concrete slabs, however,
thicker ones may already be nailed down on top of wood subfloors.
Furthermore, engineered wood floors are also more sustainable than
hardwood floors because their advanced features are built to last
longer.
In
shopping for this type of flooring, you have to closely examine the
floor item’s internal structure as much as its outward appearance.
The various thickness dimensions of this flooring contribute to its
versatile applications.
