Solid Wood Flooring
Solid wood flooring comes in three main types. Each type is available in
both an unfinished and a pre-finished version. Unfinished flooring must be
job-site sanded and finished after installation. Pre-finished flooring is
sanded and finished at the factory -- so it only needs installation. The
three main types of solid wood flooring are:
Strip flooring
- This type of flooring is denoted by the
thickness and width of the wood planks. Strip flooring has a set width, but
the thickness can vary. Strip flooring ranges in thickness from 5/16 of an
inch to 3/4 of an inch wide. It is available only in widths of 1 1/2 inches,
2 inches and 2 1/4.inches.
Plank flooring - Plank flooring only
comes in two thicknesses, but unlike strip flooring, the widths can vary. It
is available only in thicknesses of 1/2 inch or 3/4 inch and a range of
widths from 3 inches to 8 inches.
Parquet flooring
- Parquet floors have a very different look
from typical hardwoods. They are made up of geometrical patterns composed of
individual wood slats held in place by mechanical fastening or an adhesive.
