What species does engineered wood flooring come in?
Engineered wood floors are produced in an extensive variety of domestic and exotic hardwood species. Several manufactures of engineered flooring have a thin wear layer that can just be re-coated but cannot be sanded and refinished further once they get tattered. A number of engineered wood floors have a tremendously thick wear layer or veneer. These floors can be sanded and refinished further, up to 4-5 times if needed, which adds to their charm and attraction. Engineered floors have a typical life span of 30-40 years but this all depends on the traffic that these floors will endure and how they are taken care of.
