What to Consider When You’re Choosing Hardwood Flooring in Washington, D.C., and Beyond
While hardwood floors are typically considered a design feature, they can also be thought of as an investment thanks to their longevity and high return on investment. They can add value to your home and help you sell it. This sustainable flooring also requires less energy and water in production, and it can be recycled if you ever choose to swap it for a different flooring solution.
Hardwood floors offer several other benefits too, including the following.
Before choosing a new hardwood option based exclusively on the wood’s color, you’ll want to ensure that you can continue enjoying your floor for years to come. To that end, consider these factors:

Lifestyle & traffic
Lifestyle & Traffic
Your lifestyle can play a role in what kind of wood flooring you should go with. Households that frequently entertain or experience high traffic will need a harder wood to keep the floor from getting scratched up and dented. If you’re installing the wood flooring in a less frequently used room, a softer wood may be a great solution.
Children & pets
Pets & Children
Children and pets can also damage softer woods. From pet nail scratches to toddlers throwing toys around, both pets and kids can lead to floor damage with the wrong flooring. Fortunately, you can install a harder wood that holds up and stays looking its best no matter who is playing in the space.
Species of wood
Species of wood
Species of wood can be divided into domestic and exotic. Domestic woods include cherry, maple and oak, while exotics include teak and jatoba. The appearance of the wood can vary based on the species as well as the price. Exotic woods are harder to acquire, making them more costly.
Solid or engineered wood
Solid vs engineered wood flooring
Solid hardwood, or solid pieces of wood in plank form, can be sanded down and refinished repeatedly. This feature will be beneficial if you expect many scratches and dents. Keep in mind, however, that solid wood is affected by humidity, so it doesn’t work well in moist environments like below-grade basements. Engineered wood, on the other hand, has a base of high-density plywood with real wood glued on top. While the top is thin, it does work better in moist environments compared to solid wood flooring.
Unfinished Wood
Unfinished hardwood flooring
Pre-finished woods are already stained, while unfinished woods are raw. With pre-finished flooring, you’ll be able to install right away, but with unfinished flooring, the product will have to go through the process of being sanded down, stained and finished before it can be installed in your home or commercial building. Remember that unfinished flooring will add more time to the installation process because of these additional steps.

SOLID HARDWOOD FLOORING
The name says it all. It’s milled from solid wood and comes unfinished, so you can apply your own stain, or pre-finished for one less step and an easier installation.
