Domestic: The most common domestics are Red Oak, White Oak, Maple, and Pine. There are also Ash, Beech, Birch, Cherry, Fir, and Walnut. Domestic wood is also recycled to produce a unique look such as Antique Heart Pine. Imported: You can also choose from imported wood that create an exotic look such as Australian Beech and Cypress, Bolivian Rosewood, Brazilian Cherry, Bubinga, Jarrah, Mahogany, Merbau, Tasmanian Oak, and Teak.


To view different wood species, visit our showroom Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.

 

Selecting a Finish

We apply two types of finish which are both durable, water resistant, and require minimal maintenance. Finish protects wood flooring from wear, dirt, and moisture while giving an attractive sheen. The following is a table which represents the different characteristics of each type of finish.

Customizing Your Wood Floor

There are infinite design possibilities on customizing your wood floor. You can vary the pattern of the wood such as having it installed either diagonally or with a herringbone design. You can also use two or more types of wood species to create a unique look. You may choose to add one or more borders, feature strips, and/or medallions. If you are interested, you can even design your own medallion, border, or pattern and the flooring can be custom made for you! To further accent your wood floor, you can also add area rug.
