Frequently Asked
Questions
What makes Timeless Floors
superior to other wood flooring companies?
Timeless Floors creates hand
scraped floors. This means that they are created by hand, not by
machine. These hardwood floors do look stunning and give the appearance
of a wood floor with a lot of rich character markings. Although hand
scraping is more costly to create, each hand scraped plank should have a more
unique appearance over a machine distressed plank because of the hand
scraping. We provide you with a commitment that these will be floors that
will last for years – and we will do it in the most efficient and cost
effective way possible for you.
What do we need to know about choosing
the perfect species of wood for the floor project?
First, it is not all about
color! You need to consider other attributes: texture, grain, lighting and the way
your final color will play off these factors. Then, the consideration for
dimensional stability (the ability to keep its shape and size), durability and
ease of finishing. Finally, there is the matter of hardness, which is
considered by our experts to be the most important strength property for wood
used in flooring. Ask us for our wood hardness scale for an overall
comparison of different species.
Are wood floors a “green” choice?
Yes, most certainly. In
fact, as a natural resource, wood is renewable and recyclable.
