Two kinds
Almost everyone is familiar with solid, one big slice throughout each plank, but engineered is taking a big share of the wood flooring industry.
Only the construction is different, making it more stable and better able to handle water. At the top is a slab of genuine timber. This is called the veneer layer and it’s what gives the floor its beautiful and elegant appearance. Underneath are three or more layers of genuine wood combined with resins, and those layers are placed crosswise.
It has more versatility since it can be used in many places where solid cannot, such as basements.
Ask your flooring retailer to show you samples of this hardwood.

You’ll recoup 70-80% of your purchase price for either, as reflected in your property values. If you are planning to sell, real estate sales associates tell us that buyers will often pay up to 2.5% more for a home with wood floors; since engineered is considered real wood, they are legally able to advertise them as such in the marketing tools.
Both versions can be refinished.
