Hardwood Cuts:​

Prefinished boards are ready to use straight from the box. However, bare wood requires sanding, optional staining, and application of top coats before furniture can be placed. Here’s a breakdown of finishes you should consider

Flatsawn Boards: Cut with growth rings roughly parallel to the face, creating a distinct flame-like grain pattern.

Quartersawn Boards: are characterized by a straight grain with growth rings perpendicular to the face, offering a unique aesthetic at a higher cost.

Why Homeowners Prefer Oak Hardwood Flooring

There are two common types of oak species used for flooring, red and white, but oak, in general, is one of the most preferred wood species for homeowners and contractors alike. Durable, appealing and decently priced, oak is highly sought after because of its reliability and how it can easily be stained to match a client’s preferences. Oak flooring also has a naturally strong grain pattern, which is very helpful in masking surface damage such as dents, cracks and scratches.

Grading
&
Quality

Mills categorize each flooring piece based on defects such as knots and color variations, with fewer defects indicating higher quality and higher cost. It’s important to note that what constitutes a defect varies across wood species.
