New Featured Product: Engineered Tigerwood!

We love tigerwood hardwood flooring. It is a vibrant, colorful, and durable exotic hardwood that looks great in any room of the house. So imagine our excitement when we received a beautiful new variety of engineered tigerwood flooring! Take a look for yourself:

Gorgeous, right?

Tigerwood flooring features highly distinctive reddish-brown tones and prominent black striping with varying thickness. It has an irregular interlocked grain pattern that nicely complements the striping and colors. It is also one of toughest hardwoods you can find. It has a Janka hardness rating of 1850 and a density of 660 KG/m3, so you can trust it to take a lot of foot traffic and still look good. Its density and hardness also make it naturally resistant to wood rot, boring insects, other common types of hardwood problems.

Frequently Asked Questions: What Is A Random Width Floor?

If you've spent any time researching the different types of hardwood flooring available, you've probably come across the term random width floor. What does this term mean, exactly? Glad you asked.
A random width floor has planks with varying widths, from 3" to 4" to 5". Most homeowners use random width floors when they want a rustic, turn-of-the-century look.
Until recently, all hardwood floors were random width. It wasn't until the late 19th century that flooring standards evolved to today's standard: same width.
There are a few considerations you should keep in mind if choosing random width flooring. Make sure you purchase all the flooring you will be using from the same manufacturer. This ensures that the milling will match. Some manufacturers only produce random width flooring, since it enables them to get the greatest yield from kiln dried lumber that is naturally random width. Because of this, random width flooring is generally more reasonably priced and more readily available.
