Wide engineered wood flooring

Why wide engineered flooring

If you’re looking to install a new floor in your home, the width of your planks might be the last thing on your mind. However, like narrow engineered wood, wide plank engineered oak flooring is a great way to add a touch of character to a space, all while keeping engineered wood costs down by using fewer boards to complete the desired aesthetic.

Perfect for smaller rooms

By far, the biggest advantage of wide engineered wood flooring is its ability to visually widen smaller spaces. With less visible joints and a more cohesive pattern of wood, wide engineered flooring creates the illusion of a larger space without you needing to physically expand the room.

Sturdy and durable

Despite their wider size, wide plank engineered oak flooring is just as durable and hard-wearing as the best standard engineered wood. Built to the same thickness ranges and designed with a matching wear layer, wide engineered wood planks are more than capable of handling high levels of foot traffic throughout your home.
