Wood flooring choices available

Wood flooring comes in two main choices, solid and engineered. Solid wood flooring, as the name suggests is made from one piece of the wood of your choice. Often referred to as “real” wood flooring, solid wood flooring now has a real contender for market share in engineered wood flooring. Made up of layers of plywood, fused together and topped with a solid oak top layer, engineered wood flooring is a real and attractive alternative to solid wood.

Wood flooring grades

Rustic wood flooring, as the name suggests, is flooring made from rustic grade wood. Rustic grade, or CD grade wood, can be oak, walnut, maple or any other wood species but is recognised by its knots and colour variation which give it its character. Rustic grade wood flooring may also have some splits which have been filled. The important thing when choosing rustic grade flooring is to decide whether the rustic look of the wood will work with your interior.
