What is difference in durability between a prefinished floor and floor that is finished on site?
Very little….the 25 or 50 year warranty on prefinished floors is loaded with fine print. A prefinished floor will scratch and dent the same as a site finished floor. The obvious drawback to the p/f floor is the beveled edges but a fact that is overlooked is what to do if there is a discrepancy in the flooring itself or in the sub floor it is being fastened to. With a site finished floor you can address both of those concerns with a great result and you don’t have the beveled edges to look at.
