1.) What type of wood floor is right for me, solid or engineered?
That depends on where you want to install it. Both solid and engineered wood floors are made using real wood, so both are environmentally friendly.
2.) Which wood species is right for me?
Choosing the right species of wood flooring for you is strictly a matter of your style, budget, and personal preference. More than 50 domestic and imported species of wood flooring are available to achieve a unique look.
3.) Is a factory-finished floor or a site-finished floor better for me?
Each method has its own benefits and advantages, and choosing the right method will depend on the level of customization you want to achieve, and your personal preference.
4.) Why are we being told to order 10% more flooring than we actually need?
As a general rule of thumb you should plan to order 10% more flooring than is needed for the installation. Much of the material will be cut to fit the exact space, and once the boards are cut, they likely cannot be used elsewhere in the room because the end tongue or groove will have been removed.
5.) Which finish is better? Shiny or dull.
Again, this is a matter of preference. If you choose to install a site-finished floor, you can choose any sheen that you like.
