What are the key considerations when choosing wood flooring for our home?

Type of Wood

There are several different types of wood for your floors. Ayatrio Wooden flooring is a valuable investment for your home interiors, you need to carefully evaluate your options before buying it. Your budget, quality and type of wooden flooring you desire, and your lifestyle are some key factors that govern the purchase of wooden flooring.

Solid vs. Engineered

There are two main types of hardwood: solid and engineered. Solid wood flooring is made of a single solid piece of wood from top to bottom. Solid wood flooring has a vintage appeal to it, and makes your home décor look traditional and timeless. High-quality solid wood floors are highly durable.

Engineered wooden floors are manufactured using multiple layers of wood surfaces. Engineered wood is very stable. The manufacturing process of engineered wood enhances its functionality, meaning it will expand and contract less than solid wood flooring during fluctuations in humidity and temperature.

Grain and Grade

The grain and grade varies between woods and there is no perk to having one over the other, it just comes down to personal preference and the look you are aiming to achieve.
The grain refers specifically to the patterns seen on the surface of wood and can play a role in how natural the wood looks.

Color

Hardwood floors range from light-colored to dark-colored and everything in between. There are even certain shades that take on more red, orange and gray tones. Consider how the other elements in your space, like wall colors, furniture and built-ins, will look against your chosen hardwood floor color.

Unfinished or prefinished

This simply means that the wood can be finished before it’s installed making the installation process a lot faster, or it can finished on site by a flooring expert which takes more time and is often more expensive but, it is considered to be the more aesthetically pleasing option.

You’ll also need to decide on the type of surface finish that you’d prefer which varies between high-gloss, semi-gloss, satin and matte.
