Each wood species used to manufacture hardwood flooring has its own unique grain and color characteristics. From the understated uniform look of Maple to the heavily contrasting rich grain of exotic Tigerwood, each wood species is a matter of personal taste and depends very much on the overall effect you want to achieve for your space. Some wood species are used for their ability to take on gray or white stains such as trendy White Oak and others are used for their reddish undertones such as Mahogany and Cherry. This section will give you an overview of each wood species offered by Lauzon to help you discover each species and how it may enhance your décor.
The floor hardness, indicated by a Janka scale rating, should not be a deciding factor when choosing your floor since no wood is scratch or dent proof and the Janka scale is irrelevant when choosing an engineered construction since the overall strength of the wood will include the core layers.
