What Sets Hardwood Floors Apart?
When we’re remodeling or repairing, we often recommend hardwood floors for their reliability and adaptability. They work well in a wide range of layouts and can complement both modern and traditional designs, so they always feel like a natural fit no matter the style of your home.
They’re also easy to maintain, which is an important design direction or requirement for most homeowners. They don’t require steam cleaning, deep scrubbing, or special treatments, unlike other flooring options that need regular upkeep to stay presentable.
Here’s what else sets hardwood apart:
- It can be resurfaced to adapt to future design changes.
- It adds structure and weight to a room without bulk.
- It’s compatible with area rugs for flexible styling.
- It doesn’t hold residual odors like carpet or vinyl.
- It holds up well under furniture movement and rearranging.

In What Rooms Should You Install Hardwood Flooring?
Part of hardwood flooring's appeal is its versatility. It looks great in living rooms, dining areas, hallways, bedrooms, or anywhere you want a clean, durable surface that adds warmth and structure.
Kitchens can also benefit from hardwood, though they typically need a tougher finish due to foot traffic and the chance of spills. Bathrooms, on the other hand, require even more caution, as moisture levels can make wood less reliable over time. We can, however, help you assess whether the conditions are right and suggest options that hold up better in each environment.
What Types of Wood Flooring Are Available?
There are several types of wood flooring to choose from, with the most notable distinction being solid hardwood and engineered hardwood. Each has its own advantages.
Solid hardwood is known for its long-term durability, but engineered options are better for handling moisture and temperature changes, making them a good fit for basements or kitchens. With so many types, finishes, and formats available, it can be tough to know what’s right for your home. We’ll walk you through the options and help you make a choice that works for your layout and style.
Upgrade Your Space With Engineered or Solid Hardwood Flooring
Engineered and solid hardwood flooring are both excellent choices, but the options don’t end there. Whichever wood material you decide to install, Orland Builders Inc. brings the experience, planning, and care needed to ensure it’s done right.
