Hardwood flooring is distinguished by the following characteristics:
Hardwood plank flooring comes in two main constructions: solid and engineered. At our local flooring store, you’ll find these types of hardwood in our premium hardwood flooring brands, including Superior Hardwood, National Wood Flooring, Rustic River, Hanover Hills, Kahr’s, TAS Hardwood, Bruce, Mannington, and Hydrotek H20. Learn about the unique characteristics and advantages of each type of hardwood at our Helena flooring store:
Engineered Hardwood Flooring
Engineered hardwood flooring planks are created from laminated layers. This layered design adds structural stability and prevents expansion and contraction from moisture and humidity exposure. At the surface is a real hardwood veneer, meaning engineered and solid hardwood looks identical from above. The only disadvantage to engineered hardwood is you can’t normally sand and refinish as often as solid wood. This depends on the quality and thickness of its top layer.
Solid Hardwood Flooring
Solid hardwood floors, with each plank made from a single wood piece, have been around for centuries. Each plank is typically ¾ inch thick and made entirely of premium hardwood. Since it’s solid throughout, you can sand and refinish your solid wood floors multiple times. This eliminates scratches, stains, dents, and other imperfections, and lets you refinish in a modern style. Because this type of wood flooring is susceptible to warping in humid or extra-dry conditions, we recommend installing it above grade and in non-moisture-prone rooms. Make sure your home has proper humidity levels through the dry winter months, so planks don’t become brittle and prone to gapping and cracking.
Our Montana customers continue to choose hardwood floors for its variety of advantages in performance and design, including the following:
Solid wood hardwood can be installed in dry, above-grade spaces. It's perfect for a living room or bedroom. Engineered hardwood can be installed on all levels and in busier settings that are more moisture-prone. This includes basements, mudrooms, and kitchens. Our most versatile hardwood product is Hydrotek™, a completely waterproof hardwood floor. It has a vinyl sublayer and watertight seams that protect from leaks. Install Hydrotek in your bathroom for a gorgeous, spa-like aesthetic.
