Wood Floor Installation

You know you want wood floors. But do you know what kind you want? Sure, there are various types of wood (maple, oak, pine, mahogany, cherry, etc.) and there are different colors (light woods, darker woods, mottled variations, etc.)

But you must also consider the style of wood flooring that will be installed in your home.


You have three choices of Wood Styles:

• Strips
• Planks
• Parquet

Strips of wood are the long, thin sections of wood flooring that are usually one and a half to three inches wide. They usually have the tongue-and-groove design for installation by flooring contractors.

Planks are just like the strips, with similar designs, but they are much wider than strips. These go from 3 inches wide to five, six, or even greater widths, depending on personal taste.

Parquet wood floors are most likely square shaped sections of wood flooring (but come in a variety of geometric shapes) and are laid out a pattern.

You'll need to decide what type of wood flooring you want your floor installer to put in.
