TYPES OF HARDWOOD FLOORS
When deciding to install a new floor in your home, we recommend starting with the type of hardwood floor. 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
-
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
-
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 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 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.

ADVANTAGES OF HARDWOOD FLOORS
Besides being a beautiful, all-natural addition to any home, hardwood floors offer several key advantages that make them one of the best investments you can make in your property. Here are just a few of the many benefits of hardwood floors:
​
Long lasting – Hardwood floors can last decades, even centuries if they are properly maintained. Luckily with a hardwood floor, cleaning and maintenance is easy and simple.
​
Nature’s Solution – Hardwood floors are made from all-natural materials that are non-allergenic and can easily be kept clean of dust and other irritants. They’re also an excellent insulator - heat, cold, noise and other elements will not pass through them as easily as they do with other flooring types.
​
Family-friendly – Children can play on hardwood floors without worry of scratches, and they're durable enough for rough wear from pets as well. Hardwood floors also provide comfort underfoot and keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
​
Nothing adds value to your home quite like a luxury hardwood floor. If you want to stand out from other properties in your area, a hardwood floor can be a great addition - you’ll enjoy it while you live in the property and benefit again when it comes time to put your home on the market. A beautiful floor is a great indication to a prospective buyer of the quality of construction and care put into your home.

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.

HARDWOOD FLOORING FAQ
How much will my hardwood flooring cost?
Every job will have its own unique cost, depending on the home and your needs and preferences as a customer. As a rough estimate, we typically quote in the range of $3 – $8 per square foot, but we would love to have an individual conversation about your requirements and provide you with a free quote.
Are engineered hardwood floors worth it?
Based on our intense positive feedback over the last two decades, the answer is “Yes!” as far as we’re concerned. The unique advantages of a product with the appearance of solid hardwood at a more affordable price, all while being equally or even more durable make it easy for us to recommend them. Ultimately the choice is yours, but we would love to convince you!
How long does hardwood last?
While this ultimately depends on the wear out on the floor and the level of care, thinner engineered hardwood floors are estimated to last 20-30 years, while thicker hardwood lasts closer to 40-80.
