Engineered Wood Vs. Solid, Flooring: Major Differences, Pros And Cons
Solid is made of solid piece of wood. It is usually made of hardwood species like
maple, oak, birch, hickory, and some exceedingly rare exotic species. And it has a
longer lifespan that allows for sanding and refinishing over and over.
Engineered wood flooring looks almost identical to the hardwood on the surface, but
instead of a single wood plank, it’s made of a high-quality plywood core with a thin
layer of hardwood flooring on top. The plywood core layers have alternating grain
direction for added strength. Engineered wood flooring is a more affordable option,
but it can’t be refinished to extend its lifespan. The thicker the wear layer the more
times it can be refinished, and more expensive the product is.
Both surfaces are used across the home and they are almost identical in terms of
benefits, leaving the choice to be a very personal one.
Key Differences
Solid, is often made of a hardwood species. Popular species include maple, walnut,
oak and cherry. Solid flooring comes from a solid piece of milled wood, hence the
name. Hardwood flooring installation involves nailing the wood planks to the
subfloor, a project that requires some skills. Because it is solid wood, it can easily be
sanded and refinished several times over its lifespan to maintain its appearance.
Engineered Wood Flooring
On the surface, engineered wood flooring is made to look and feel identical to
hardwood flooring. But, its construction only uses a thin layer of hardwood to achieve
its appearance and has a plywood core. Engineered flooring installation is DIY-
friendly and is available in glued or interlocking planks that make it easier to install.
Because its top layer is just a thin layer of hardwood, it can’t be refinished as often as
solid flooring, but it can still last up to 30 years and more with proper maintenance.
