Engineered Wood

What is Engineered Wood?

Engineered wood flooring is a fantastic alternative to solid wood. It has the same high quality finish and beautiful look as solid wood, but is lower maintenance and more durable in the face of moisture or heat.

Engineered wood is created from real wood, giving it the same look, but rather than being one plank of pure wood, it is constructed from multiple layers of different timber. The top layer is the highest quality and most beautiful, giving the floor its final appearance. All the layers are fused and compressed together under intense pressure, creating an extremely stable floorboard.

The ability to vary the layers in the engineered wood results in different thicknesses. We have a range available including 18mm, 15mm, 14mm and 20mm -- along with many others! We have a guide that can give you even more information: What is engineered wood flooring?

Engineered wood provides several advantages which include:

Stability

Engineered wood floors offer greater stability than solid wood. Due to the way they’re made, the layers of compressed timber create a real wood floor that’s extremely strong. It means that engineered wood flooring can withstand changes in heat -- whether hot or cold. Solid wood shrinks and expands according to temperature, which can ultimately lead to permanent damage and warping. Engineered wood, on the other hand, doesn’t change when faced with altering temperatures, leading to a more stable flooring.

Engineered wood floors are perfect for houses with underfloor heating, which would damage solid wood alternatives.

Moisture Resistance

Due to their construction, engineered wood floors are also protected against moisture. Solid wood floors warp when they come into contact with any form of moisture, making them not only more vulnerable to damage, but also not appropriate for many spaces in the home, including bathrooms and kitchens.

However, you can still get a beautiful real wood floor in your bathroom or kitchen by choosing engineered wood. Engineered wood is waterproof, making it the perfect way to create a stunning look in areas that are prone to water spills or humid air.

Durability

The layers of timber that create engineered wood give it an extremely strong and durable finish. Each floorboard can withstand high levels of footfall. Whether you’re looking for durable flooring for your home or commercial space, engineered wood is a fantastic choice.

Lifespan

While engineered wood can’t be sanded, resurfaced, oiled and refinished as much as solid wood, it can still be sanded and refinished several times. It depends on the thickness of the final wood layer (the veneer) as to how many times and to what extent this can be done, but it means that it’s possible to bring your engineered wood flooring a new lease of life decades after you’ve had it fitted!

Even without sanding, engineered wood is a long-lasting flooring option.
