Engineered or Solid Wood flooring?

Everyone dreams of having a perfect hardwood floor in their living room or bedroom. However, when we start to get into that world to know all the possibilities, it can be a bit tedious not knowing the differences that exist.

You have probably heard of terms like Engineered or Solid Hardwood and may not known their different characteristics. For this reason, in this new post on our blog, we will tell you everything you need to know about these two excellent options.

Here you can see both types of floors inside.

What they are made about?

To begin with, both types of flooring are made of real wood, they are not synthetic products that are visible to the eye.

The difference is that solid hardwood is 100% solid wood and Engineered Hardwood has a layer of solid wood on top and cross layers of plywood below.

Performance and durability

In this section, both options are highly reliable. Both kinds of flooring are generally made from high-quality materials and tested before being put on the market. We now have the most trustworthy items thanks to years and years of advancement in the industry.

Perhaps, if this is an area you are more inclined towards, we can recommend Engineered Hardwood, because, unlike Solid Hardwood, it does not need constant maintenance to prevent damage.

Colors y styles

Another benefit of technical development is that as the market grows, more styles may be produced and made available.
