Choosing the Right Oak Flooring

With so many options available, it can be overwhelming to select the perfect oak flooring for your home. Here are some tips to guide your choice:

• Consider Traffic Flow - For high-traffic areas like hallways and kitchens, choose thicker solid oak planks that can better withstand wear. Engineered oak floors are great for bedrooms and other spaces that see lighter use.
• Evaluate Subfloors - Over concrete slabs, engineered oak flooring provides better stability. For installation over plywood or existing wood floors, solid oak performs well.
• Assess Condition - If your subfloor is uneven or damaged, engineered oak with its plywood base will span problem areas better than solid wood.
• Factor in Style - Wide planks highlight oak's natural beauty, while classic narrow strips offer a more formal look. Distressed and grey washed oak provide rustic charm.
• Determine Color - Oak varies from almost white to deep chocolate browses. Sample boards in your home to see color impact.
• Consider Radiant Heat - If you have radiant floor heating, engineered oak is the better choice due to its stability.
• Think About Refinishing - Solid oak boards can be refinished multiple times, while engineered have a thinner top layer, limiting refinish capabilities.
