An engineered flooring comprises of more than one layer and has a stable composition. Each layer is bonded together in opposite directions. The stability of this type of flooring has enabled manufacturers to design wide planks that can be laid without the worry of boards curling, cupping or shrinking with the humidity changes.
Solid floors are made from one single timber piece, which is generally a hardwood species. Solid flooring is left on-site to adapt in the environmental conditions at least a week before installing to ensure that it has adjusted to the surroundings.
