Engineered Wood Flooring

Engineered Oak flooring looks very similar to Solid flooring on the surface but it is made up of very thin layer of hardwood bonded over a substrate of high-quality plywood. At Nexus flooring, you will find a variety of Engineered Wood floors and choose the best that suits your space.

Why Engineered Wood Flooring?

Engineered oak flooring is becoming increasingly popular due to its superior properties like high dimensional stability, aesthetic appeal, and longevity. Some of the other features of Engineered Wood flooring are:

  • Appearance

When it comes to flashboards, they tend to be wider with Engineered oak flooring. Slight grooves between boards are created as some pre-finished engineered wood flooring has beveled edges. Engineered flooring is almost always sold pre-finished; there is a narrower range of available colors and species.

  • Water & Heat Resistance

Engineered Wood flooring performs slightly better in humid locations since its plywood construction makes it more stable and less susceptible to warping. It's the best choice when installation against a concrete subfloor is necessary.

  • Care & Cleaning

Sweeping, Vacuuming and cleaning with a damp mop is all that is required to clean Engineered flooring.

  • Durability & Maintenance

Engineered oak flooring can be refinished only once or twice before the surface hardwood layer is exhausted.

  • Installation

This flooring is very easy to install. Most DIYers say that it can be easily glued down against the concrete subfloor. There are lso forms like click-lock edges that can be istalled as a ‘floating floor’.

  • Cost

Engineered Oak Flooring is slightly less expensive. The cost also depends on the prevailing labor cost in your area and the complexity of your space.

  • Lifespan

It generally lasts for 20-30 years.
