Frequently Asked Questions – Engineered Flooring
What is engineered flooring?
While traditional hardwood planks are made from a single piece of solid timber, engineered is made from a thin layer of decorative timber typically glued on a hardwood plywood core.
The top layer of timber can vary from 2mm to 6mm thick, depending on the products
How do I clean and care for my engineered flooring?
Just like solid hardwood, engineered flooring is easy to care for! It requires simple sweeping, vacuuming, and occasionally a damp mop with a wood cleaner.
How is it installed?
For installation there are 3 options;
1. A nail-down method just like solid hardwood.
2. Glued down onto a concrete subfloor
3. Installed as a floating floor where each panel is joined together using “click-lock” technology.
Does it last as long as traditional hardwood floors?
Although engineered flooring doesn’t last as long as traditional hardwood floors, it allows you to achieve the same look at a more affordable price.
Can I sand an engineered floor?
In most cases yes; with so many variations of engineered floors, please refer to manufacturer details to determine if your floor is suitable for sanding.
