Maybe the look you are trying for is something closer to a New England pub and not an antebellum hall. We also carry lines of distressed wood. What that means is that a craftsman will take the individual boards and scrape or beat the board to give the flooring the look of being 100 years old or more. These floors are then hand-finished and sent along for you, our customer. Every distressed floor is unique as it was hand-worked and the floor, when fully installed, will exude character and will be a sure conversation starter with any guests that you may have over.
Perhaps you are considering doing your whole home in wood floors but are concerned about how the wood will hold up in your basement. While solid hardwoods are not designed for below-grade installation, engineered floors are. In an engineered floor, a layer of hardwood is attached to a plywood backing. The plywood protects from the moisture as well as stabilization to the wood itself. These are perfectly designed for use in the basement, on slab construction, or anywhere where moisture might make a solid wood installation unwise. And, if you are looking to match your flooring, there are engineered lines to match virtually any line of solid wood.
