Frequently Asked Questions About Hardwood Flooring

Learn more about solid hardwood, unfinished hardwood, engineered hardwood, and prefinished flooring, including installation, maintenance, durability, moisture concerns, refinishing, and the best applications for each product type.

What is the difference between solid hardwood and engineered hardwood?

Solid hardwood is milled from one piece of wood and can often be sanded and refinished multiple times. Engineered hardwood is built with a real wood wear layer over a layered core, which provides greater dimensional stability in areas where humidity and moisture conditions may vary.

Can hardwood flooring be installed in basements?

Solid hardwood is generally not recommended below grade. Engineered hardwood may be suitable in some basements when the slab is dry, moisture conditions are controlled, and the manufacturer approves the installation.

What is prefinished hardwood flooring?

Prefinished hardwood is factory-sanded, stained, and finished before installation. It offers consistent color and finish quality, faster installation, and less dust and odor inside the home because no on-site finishing is required.

Which is better: unfinished hardwood or prefinished hardwood?

Neither is automatically better. Unfinished hardwood is ideal when a custom stain color, smooth site-finished appearance, or matching existing floors is important. Prefinished hardwood is a strong choice when faster installation, factory-applied durability, and minimal disruption are priorities.

Which is better: solid hardwood or engineered hardwood?

Solid hardwood is often preferred when long-term refinishing potential is the main priority. Engineered hardwood is often better over concrete, in lower levels, over radiant heat, or in areas with greater humidity changes. The best choice depends on the subfloor, room location, moisture conditions, and product construction.

Can hardwood flooring be installed over concrete?

Engineered hardwood can often be glued directly to properly prepared concrete. Solid hardwood usually requires an approved wood subfloor system or another installation method specifically allowed by the manufacturer. Concrete must be tested for moisture before installation.

Can hardwood flooring be installed over plywood or OSB?

Yes. Solid and engineered hardwood can commonly be installed over properly prepared plywood or approved OSB using nail-down, staple-down, glue-down, or floating methods, depending on the product and manufacturer instructions.

Does hardwood flooring need to acclimate?

Yes, many hardwood products require acclimation before installation. The exact time depends on the species, product construction, moisture content, jobsite conditions, and manufacturer requirements. The building should be enclosed and operating at normal living conditions before installation.

How long does hardwood flooring last?

Quality hardwood flooring can last for decades and, in many cases, for the life of the home. Its lifespan depends on product quality, installation, traffic, humidity control, maintenance, and refinishing potential.

What is the difference between site-finished and factory-finished hardwood?

Site-finished hardwood is sanded and finished after installation, creating a smooth, continuous appearance. Factory-finished hardwood is finished before installation and often includes strong wear layers and beveled board edges.

How should hardwood flooring be cleaned?

Use a microfiber dust mop, vacuum approved for hard surfaces, and a cleaner recommended by the flooring or finish manufacturer. Avoid steam mops, excessive water, wax, oil soap, and harsh household cleaners unless specifically approved.
