What Is Engineered Wood Flooring and How Does It Differ from Solid Wood?

Engineered wood flooring is a great choice for homeowners looking for a luxurious and stylish flooring option that is also durable and hard-wearing. Unlike solid wood flooring, engineered wood flooring is made up of several layers of wood, with a hardwood veneer on the top layer. This construction gives it greater stability and makes it less prone to warping and other damage caused by moisture. In addition, engineered wood flooring is available in a range of different finishes, from traditional oaks to more exotic woods, so you can easily find a style that fits with your home décor.

At FlooringHub.co.uk, we stock a wide range of engineered wood flooring products, from oak to walnut, and each one has been carefully manufactured to the highest standards. Our engineered wood flooring products are designed to provide a luxurious finish, while also being practical and easy to maintain. 

The most important thing to consider when installing engineered wood flooring is the underlayment. The right kind of underlayment can make a huge difference to the look and feel of your flooring. At FlooringHub.co.uk, we have a range of underlayment options to choose from, so you can be sure to get the best possible finish for your flooring. 

Once you've chosen your underlayment, you'll need to decide on the finish. We have a range of finishes available, from traditional, oiled looks to more contemporary, lacquered finishes. If you're not sure which finish is right for your home, why not order some samples and compare them in person? We offer unlimited free samples from our website, so you can make sure you get the perfect finish for your floor.

When it comes to cleaning engineered wood floors, the key is to be gentle. Our customers often tell us that they use a damp mop or cloth with a mild, pH-neutral cleaner to keep their floors looking great. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, as this can damage the finish of your flooring, and avoid soaking your flooring, as this can cause warping.

At FlooringHub.co.uk, we are passionate about providing our customers with the best engineered wood flooring products and advice. If you have any questions about our range of  products, or about any other flooring topics, please don't hesitate to get in touch with our friendly team of experts. 

As a mother and home owner, I can personally vouch for the beauty, luxury and quality of our engineered wood flooring products.

My daughter Chloe and son Tom love playing on it, and our dog Amber absolutely loves it too!
