Engineered Wood Flooring

Rias Flooring Today’s Engineered Wood Flooring is the Better and sustainable Choice for Most Homes. Engineered wood floors have the same look and feel as solid wood floors, but they are significantly more attractive and versatile, especially for DIY installs. As a result, engineered wood is the better and greener option for most homes. Engineered wood flooring is more attractive since it allows for broader and varied width planks, such as our Reserve Collection’s 4″/6″/8″ planks. Solid boards are susceptible to seasonal expansion and contraction, which can result in unattractive gaps and fractures, as well as “cupping” from moisture and shrinking over time.

Unlike a strip of solid wood, which can bend or bow, as can happen with lengthier solid planks, engineered flooring is made up of seven cross-stacked layers that make it more resistant to humidity and moisture. Engineered hardwood is also more adaptable in terms of installation, as it may be laid on any grade level. This means it can be floated, glued to a concrete slab, or fastened or stapled to a wood sub-floor in any area in the house.
