Why Engineered Wood Is the Perfect Practical Choice for North Denver Homes

For most North Denver homeowners, the appeal of hardwood has never been a question. Instead, it’s often the practical concerns that make them pause. Since solid hardwood is sensitive to moisture, doesn’t work well in damp or below-grade spaces, and expands and contracts with our drastic season changes, engineered hardwood flooring in Denver, and beyond is sturdy, stable, and more practical for modern lifestyles.

With engineered wood floors, you get:

• Improved stability. Engineered hardwood’s layered structure is specifically designed to tolerate temperature and humidity changes and resist the expansion and contraction that causes solid wood to warp, gap, and buckle.
• Simpler installation. Engineered hardwood flooring in Denver, and the nearby area, can install over concrete slabs, existing tile, radiant heat systems, and a wider variety of subfloors than solid wood.
• A cost-effective solution. Compared to solid hardwood, engineered options typically cost less per square foot, requires less intensive installation labor, and are less likely to trigger expensive subfloor prep work before the floors are put in. And because you’re still getting a real wood surface, the look, feel, and warmth of the floor brings the same authentic experience.

Start with Finding the Right Core

We offer a variety of wood types, including beautiful maple, hickory, and engineered oak flooring in Denver, and the surrounding area. However, not all engineered hardwood is built the same. The core construction beneath the wood veneer makes a bigger difference in the long-term performance than most homeowners realize. Here's a short walkthrough of the core types we offer:

• Plywood cores. The cross-stacked layers of real wood plywood create a stable, strong core that handles moisture and temperature fluctuations and the daily wear in a busy home.
• High-density fiberboard (HDF) cores. The high-density construction gives the floor a solid, firm structure that many homeowners associate with quality. The floor doesn't flex, doesn't feel hollow, and doesn’t give the subtle bounce that can make some engineered floors feel less substantial than solid wood.
• Strand woven bamboo cores. To make the core, bamboo is shredded into fibers, which are saturated with resin and compressed under enormous pressure to make a core material that’s significantly harder than most traditional hardwoods. Whether you’re conscious of your environmental impact or need an exceptionally durable floor, engineered wood with a bamboo core is a compelling option.
• Laminated veneer lumber (LVL) cores. By bonding thin sheets of wood together under heat and pressure, manufacturers make a remarkably strong, dimensionally consistent core that can carry exceptionally heavy loads.
