Learn About the Latest Trends for Your Next Job

Flooring is a crucial visual detail in any room and it pays for you to understand the latest trends and options when planning a project with clients. These days consumers typically select flooring based on how it looks, not so much on what it’s made of.

Different Types of Flooring

Engineered Hardwood

This option has a top layer of solid hardwood bonded to a substrate of plywood or fibre board. Engineered provides all the appearance of solid hardwood, but with important advantages. Besides being available in wider widths than solid hardwood, engineered hardwood is more stable in areas where moisture fluctuations make hardwood less than ideal. Engineered flooring can also be applied over radiant heat and concrete and comes in floating, stapled or glue-down installations.

Tongue and groove systems are more popular than click systems and work better over floors that are not perfectly flat. Bring samples to client meetings so they can see how a surface layer of hardwood is factory-bonded to a plywood, fibreboard or bamboo substrate.
