Prefinished Hardwood Flooring

There are many flooring options to choose from today. Why does choosing hardwood flooring make such great sense?  Hardwood flooring is prized for its natural beauty and durability.  A stylish home improvement you can enjoy today, prefinished hardwood flooring improves with age and is a good option for the environment as well as your family’s health and comfort.

Why Choose BreezeWood Prefinished Flooring?

BreezeWood Floors offers both solid hardwood flooring and engineered hardwood flooring. Solid hardwood is valued for its timeless beauty, while engineered hardwood provides improved stability for wider planks and is better suited for installations below grade (basements). Both of these affordable and high quality prefinished hardwood flooring options are available in a wide selection of grades, stains, widths and finishes.

I have small children and pets. Are hardwood floors right for me?

Yes they could be!  How hardwood floors will fair with energetic, young children and pets can be of concern to hardwood floor shoppers. Consider that some hardwood floors options are more suitable for homes with pets and young children. Whether prefinished solid wood flooring or engineered hardwood, choose a species with a high Janka hardness rating, a measure which ranks the relative hardness of each wood species. The higher the ranking, the harder the wood species. No hardwood floor is bullet proof though! Over time, any flooring subjected to heavy or sharp objects, etc.­­ will eventually scratch and indent the surface. Your flooring colour and finish factor into how much surface wear you notice when damage occurs. Surface wear may be less evident on woods with open or pronounced grains (like ash and oak) and on low sheen finishes (matte and ultra-matte). Surface wear, dust and dirt may be more accentuated on closed grain woods (hard maple), high sheen finishes (semi-gloss) and very dark hardwood finishes.
Yes, you can have hardwood floors when you have pets! Consider this further advice:

  • Keep your pet’s nails trim and blunt or use nail caps
  • Use area rugs and mats in areas of concern
  • Avoid allowing water to sit around pets bowls. Clean water off prefinished flooring immediately or use pet trays
