Natural Colour Wood Flooring

Wood flooring is a hugely popular flooring option these days.  With a broad range of colours, species, finishes and fitting methods available, it’s easy to see why so many people are steered towards this versatile flooring choice.  Wood flooring has been the preferred option of the rich and famous for centuries, with great examples to be seen in castles and stately homes all over.  Add to this the ease of maintenance and the fact that, with the right care and attention, wood flooring can last a lifetime and you begin to see its attraction.

Wood flooring comes in two main varieties: solid and engineered.  Engineered wood flooring is made from layers and layers of plywood which are bonded together to create a really strong base for a solid oak lamella or top layer.  It is this solid oak lamella which makes engineered wood flooring such a strong contender for market share against solid wood.  Solid wood flooring, as its name suggests, is flooring which is made from single planks of a selected species or grade of wood and nothing else.

Natural wood flooring shades will depend on the species of wood you choose.  A completely natural product, wood comes in all different natural shades.  From off white tones to almost black, you will be able to find a natural wood flooring shade to suit pretty much every interior.  Even within single species of wood, there is a variety of natural shades.
