Solid Hardwood vs Engineered Hardwood

 

Shopping for hardwood flooring? You can expect to encounter two major hardwood flooring groups on your next browsing trip: solid hardwood and engineered hardwood. Both of these flooring families are beautiful and made to last, but there are also some major differences between the two.

 

Comprised of solid wooden planks, the more traditional solid hardwood can be refinished as many times as needed, lasting for multiple generations. Solid hardwood cannot be installed below grade.

 

A modern-day alternative, engineered hardwood looks just like solid hardwood, but the difference is below the surface. Built in multiple wooden layers, engineered hardwood is typically water-resistant, thanks to a reinforced core. Unlike its solid cousin, engineered hardwood can be installed below grade.
