What Makes Engineered Hardwood Unique?
Engineered hardwood floors are made with 100% real solid wood for their top layer, while using thin layers of derivitive wood products (such as plywood) for the middle layers. Ultimately, it’s difficult to distinguish differences between engineered hardwood and solid hardwood.
Why might you prefer engineered hardwood over other types of flooring?
Engineered hardwood floors excel in all of the areas that people typically look for in floors – including their strength & durability, versatility, and quality. In addition, some other advantages of engineered hardwood include:
- Engineered floors are well suited for places with a higher level of moisture, as they typically will not warp or cup over time.
- They can be installed on, above, or below grade – making them a great option for basements.
- Engineered floors are generally much easier to install than solid hardwood floors.
- Engineered floors are very strong and durable – making them great for places with a lot of foot traffic.
About the “Nail & Glue” installation method
As the name suggests, this installation method involves nailing and gluing the floors down to the subfloor. The adhesive glue works by creating a bond between the wood and subfloor, providing solid firmness. In addition, nailing the floors provides an additional layer of stability to the floors.

About the “Click” installation method
The click installation method is largely similar to the floating method used for laminate and vinyl. This method involves using the tongue-and-groove design of the engineered floors to click into place. This method is the easiest method for installing engineered hardwood floors, as it doesn’t require nailing or gluing.

About the “Nail Down” installation method
The nail-down only installation makes use of nails or staples to hold the floors down to the subfloor. The subfloors used for this method should be wooden, rather than concrete. The nail-down method is optimal for installing floors in spaces that are on or above grade.
