Different species of hardwood flooring are more susceptible to fading from exposure to sunlight than others. It’s not uncommon for lighter softwoods such as pine to darken over time, while darker wood species such as walnut may lighten over time. You may also notice some natural color variation from plank to plank of your hardwood flooring even after it’s first installed. However, stains for wood can be color-matched to your floor’s species to create a more uniform look if desired. A+ Hardwood Floors would be happy to help you select the best hardwood stain for your floor. Contact us today with any additional questions or concerns you may have for our hardwood flooring experts!
