When selecting wood flooring for high-traffic areas, durability and longevity are key considerations. Whether you’re upgrading your home or working on a client’s project, choosing the right wood ensures lasting beauty and resistance to wear. At Enterprise Wholesale Flooring and Lighting, we offer a diverse selection of hardwood options to suit any style and functional need.
- Engineered Hardwood. Engineered hardwood is an excellent choice for high-traffic spaces like hallways and living rooms. Its multi-layer construction prevents warping and expansion, making it more resistant to moisture and temperature changes. This durability makes it a great option for busy households.
- Solid Hardwood. For those who prefer traditional wood flooring, solid hardwood provides unmatched longevity. High-quality oak, maple, or hickory floors can be sanded and refinished multiple times, ensuring they stay beautiful despite heavy foot traffic. With proper care, solid wood flooring lasts for generations.
- Harder Wood Species. Certain wood species, such as Brazilian cherry, walnut, and hickory, naturally resist dents and scratches better than softer woods. These options are ideal for entryways, kitchens, and other high-use areas where durability is essential.
- Textured and Matte Finishes. Choosing a textured finish, like hand-scraped or wire-brushed wood, helps disguise minor scratches and scuffs. Matte and low-sheen finishes also reduce the appearance of wear, making them great for homes with pets and children.
- Pre-Finished Flooring. Pre-finished hardwood comes with a factory-applied protective coating, increasing scratch resistance and expediting the installation process. This option provides a more durable surface compared to site-finished floors, perfect for high-traffic environments.
