Hardwood Flooring in Louisville, KY

With solid hardwood, planks are made from a single, solid piece of real wood. It tends to be thicker with an added wear layer that allows it to be refinished multiple times. Engineered hardwood, on the other hand, is made of thin slices of wood that are layered atop a high-quality wood composite. Engineered hardwood is more budget-friendly and can be installed in basements while solid hardwood should only be used above grade. It can usually only be refinished once, meaning your entire floor will need to be replaced if it becomes too worn or damaged.
