All About Oak Wood Floors

The information you need in order to purchase your next Oak floor with confidence.

A variety of sizes & styles

From traditional 2 1/4" strip to the popular European style wide plank, Oak floors offer countless width, length, grade, and style options from which to choose. "Oak-look" flooring is even available in waterproof vinyl!

Uniquely cut patterns

Oak flooring is known for its patterns of rays. White Oak's are longer and Red's are more distinct. However, each type of cut creates a different pattern, resulting in visuals that create a truly "custom" floor for the homeowner.

Beautiful color & durability

The open and coarse grain patterns of both Red Oak (1290 Janka Hardness rating) & White Oak (1360) make each species great for absorbing stain. Oak flooring is also resistant to splitting and shocks and also has good holding ability.

Industry Innovation

Waterproof "Oak-look" flooring alternatives?

Certain brands, such as COREtec and Global GEM, have waterproof luxury vinyl collections which include real Oak “look” and textured floors. Made without hardwood, these floors imitate the appearance of wood and have gotten better over the years with built-in sound reducing properties and textures. Although vinyl and laminate oak flooring does not have the character of natural hardwood, it can be installed above, on, or below grade, much like engineered.

Unfinished or Prefinished?

Both Red & White Oak floors are available in unfinished & prefinished solid & engineered options.

What's in a grade?

Oak hardwood flooring is produced in a wide range of grades including Select & Better, #1 Common, Cabin grades and more, all at different price points.

How does it feel?

Choose from smooth, hand scraped, wire brushed, distressed texturing, and more.
