Flooring Types
Engineered Pre-finished
A solid slab of 3/16" (4.5 mm) hardwood mounted to furniture grade multi-ply birch. 3/4" final thickness. Our GM Flooring Oil is a natural, zero VOC finish providing a subtle sheen, easy to maintain & very durable surface that brings out the luster and beauty of the wood without the "glazed" look of most factory finished floors.

Solid Un-Finished
Our traditional 3/4" thick solid wood, sand and finish on site floor. Square edges (no micro-bevel) means a good old fashioned seamless floor they way they were made for centuries. Extra Long lengths means fewer seams and longer runs for a less "bricky" appearance. Click here for more info...
