TYPES OF HARDWOOD FLOORS
When deciding to install a new hardwood floor in your home, we recommend starting with the type of hardwood flooring. Besides the obvious difference in price, each type of flooring has its own profile which should be carefully considered when you begin your planning.
We’ve summarized the most important differences in each type below, but if you have further questions one of our professionals would love to go into more detail with you!
Solid Hardwood Flooring
Solid hardwood flooring is made from a single piece of wood, offering a robust and durable surface. It can be sanded and refinished multiple times, making it a long-lasting investment for your home.
-
Planks of real hardwood for a timeless, elegant look
-
Extremely long-lasting and durable when properly cared for
-
More susceptible to moisture damage and warping
-
Higher cost and maintenance requirements means some areas of your home may not be a good candidate, such as a kitchen or basement
Engineered Hardwood Flooring
Engineered hardwood consists of a real wood veneer over multiple layers of plywood, providing excellent stability and resistance to moisture. It is ideal for areas where solid wood might not be suitable, such as basements or kitchens.
-
Constructed from several layers of wood pressed together
-
Highly resistant to moisture damage and warpage
-
Lacks the extreme longevity of a well-maintained natural hardwood floor
-
Versatile and more budget friendly product — great for areas of your home frequented by pets, children or at risk of leaks
HARDWOOD FLOOR SPECIES
Once you’ve selected your hardwood floor type, your next big decision is your species. The wide range we stock at Floor Depot allows us to offer you a stunning variety of colour, shade, durability and more. Here are three favourites to give you an example of the variety on offer;
-
Maple
A mainstay of Canadian construction for centuries, maple continues to provide us with an outstanding material for hardwood floors. Extremely durable, maple is a dependable choice with a surprising amount of variety in colour.
-
White Oak
A favourite wood in recent years, white oak provides a tough hardwood floor that is resistant to dents and impacts. Even better, the wood readily accepts a variety of stains, giving you freedom to customize the appearance of your new floor.
-
Walnut
When you need to make a statement, walnut is your wood of choice. Its dark, rich tones add an elegant warmth to any room. However, walnut is a softer wood that requires more care and maintenance to keep it looking at its best.
A sample of some of our other popular woods includes:
-
Red Oak
-
Cherry
-
Mahogany
-
Sapele
-
Hickory

WIDTH OPTIONS
In addition to your species and stain colour, you can choose the width and cut of your wood for a traditional, rustic look, a modern, exotic aesthetic and everything in between — hardwood flooring is extremely versatile.
Shorter widths tend to have a classic look, whereas wider boards can either evoke a rustic cabin or a more contemporary style.

LATEST FLOORS DEPOT REVIEWS
We required an emergency floor replacement due on very short notice. We called Alex at 4pm on Friday afternoon and he was there by 6. Within days our floor was replaced and we were able to move back in. Alex and his team did an outstanding job. Their customer service is excellent. Marjan and I highly recommend Floors Depot!
Kevin Day
Alex was a clear communicator. The job was done quickly and he was accommodating to our tight schedule. When some unforeseen challenges came up with the renovation (out of his control) he solved it and kept the project on schedule. Our floors look great, and the whole experience was stress free. I would highly recommend Alex to anyone!
Joey Mitchell
Great price and excellent service from the Floors Depot store! They did a beautiful job installing our new laminate floors and paying special attention to finishings and trims. Thank you for a job well done. I will definitely refer you to my family and friends.
