Exotic Engineered Hardwood Flooring Species
Exotic hardwood flooring provides a gorgeous look in your home, but you may desire an option that can save you money while still giving all the qualities you love. Engineered hardwoods use a thin piece of hardwood over a plywood base, giving them a similar look to hardwoods at a better price.
We offer several varieties of engineered flooring from top manufacturers. You can choose the wood species, size and finish to create a home that matches your aesthetic while providing function.
Understanding Exotic Engineered Hardwood
Engineered hardwood uses a multilayered construction of solid wood over high-quality plywood. This assembly uses less hardwood and provides a durable flooring option with easy care and maintenance.
Exotic engineered hardwood has a top layer of wood from outside North America, such as in China or Brazil. This wood may be similar to a local species or a different variety not grown in this region. These exotic species are often more durable than domestic varieties, offering better longevity.
