Latest News & Advice
What is engineered wood flooring? Engineered wood flooring, is a meticulous construction process that involves layering hardwood segments at alternating angles. This technique enhances the floor's durability, as each piece counteracts the others, minimizing the risk of wood expansion and deformation. The foundation of an engineered wood floor is fortified by a wear layer, an essential component positioned on the surface. Typically measuring between 3mm and 6mm in thickness, this wear layer allows for gentle sanding over the years, restoring the floor to its original state. This unique feature ensures the longevity of your wood floor, making it a timeless investment for your project with Forté Flooring.
What are the benefits of Engineered Wood Flooring? Engineered wood stands out among its counterparts owing to its tightly packed structure, making it an exceptionally durable hard flooring surface. Renowned for its remarkable resilience, engineered wood emerges as an outstanding choice for high-traffic commercial areas subjected to heavy footfall. In residential settings, once an engineered floor is installed, the likelihood of needing a replacement is minimal, as it boasts a lifespan that can endure the test of time at the core of your project. An added advantage of engineered wood is its compatibility with underfloor heating systems. This modern innovation has revolutionized wood flooring development, especially when compared to traditional solid wood floors that may be prone to movement and distortion due to heat. Engineered wood offers peace of mind, assuring you that your floor is well-suited for the demands of modern living. Beyond its durability and practicality, engineered wood flooring presents a plethora of design options, including various colors and textures.
