Beyond being a great design choice, hardwood flooring is an investment in your home’s value, comfort and longevity. Let’s get into why hardwood is still one of the most sought-after flooring options in Greater Philadelphia:
Timeless Beauty and Style
Hardwood floors don't run the risk of feeling outdated. Whether you love warm oak tones, the rich depth of walnut or the exotic look of Brazilian cherry, hardwood introduces a natural elegance to any room. Unlike trends that come and go, hardwood is still appealing decades later.
Increases Home Value
Real estate agents know what buyers want and hardwood floors tend to top the list. Installing a quality hardwood floor can increase your home's resale value and help it sell sooner. It's a home improvement that pays for itself over time.
Durability Made to Last Generations
With proper installation and maintenance, hardwood floors can last over 50 years, even with daily wear. It can be refinished and gets better with age. When wear starts to show through, you can sand and refinish it to look brand new again.
Easy to Clean and Maintain
Say goodbye to deep-cleaning carpets or scrubbing grout lines. Regular sweeping and occasional mopping will keep your hardwood floor looking its best. They don't trap dust, allergens or odors either so they are ideal for families with allergies or pets.
Versatile and Customizable
Hardwood flooring can work in almost any room and complements both traditional and modern design styles. Choose from different wood species, plank widths, finishes and installation patterns like herringbone or parquet. Prefinished hardwood is quick to install, while site-finished hardwood allows for custom stain colors to match your exact vision.
No two hardwood floors are the same. At Easton Flooring, we help you understand the differences so you can choose a floor that fits your home, lifestyle and budget.
Traditional solid wood planks are cut from a single piece of timber. Solid hardwood can be sanded and refinished multiple times over its lifetime, making it a durable long-term option. It’s ideal above-grade installations in living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms and hallways.
Each plank consists of a real wood veneer top and layered plywood core. Engineered hardwood offers additional stability against temperature changes and humidity, which lets it work in basements and over some radiant heating systems.
These planks are factory-finished with a durable coating already applied. Prefinished hardwood flooring can be installed in a day without any sanding, staining or finishing odors in your home. The factory finish tends to be harder and more durable than site-applied finishes.
Also known as unfinished hardwood, these floors are sanded, stained and sealed after installation. Site-finished flooring allows for custom stain colors and offers complete customization and a uniform appearance across your entire floor.
Planks are typically 5 inches or wider to create a modern, spacious look. Wide-plank hardwood shows off natural grain patterns and makes the room feel larger. You’ll find this style of hardwood in contemporary and farmhouse-style homes.
The extra-long planks reduce the appearance of seams, creating a clean, streamlined look. Long-plank hardwood is common in open-concept spaces and larger rooms.
Characterized by a distinctive V-shaped pattern created by laying planks at angles, Herringbone offers visual interest and elegance that’s perfect for formal dining rooms, entryways or feature areas.
Geometric patterns are created with small wood pieces arranged in squares, triangles or other designs. Parquet offers a classic, upscale look that works beautifully in both traditional and vintage-inspired homes.
Maple, ash and light oak tend to brighten up spaces and create an airy feel. It’s best for small rooms, modern design and homes with plenty of natural light.
Think rich, deep tones common among species like walnut, dark oak and Brazilian cherry. Dark hardwood adds contrast and an elegant appearance in larger rooms whether you prefer traditional or transitional design styles.
Exotic hardwood is characterized by its rich reddish-brown color and exceptional hardness. Brazilian cherry (Jatoba) is one of the most durable hardwood floors on the market and develops a deeper, richer color as it’s exposed to light.

Do you have any Question?
Solid hardwood flooring products are cut from a single piece of timber and can be sanded and refinished many times over their lifetime. Although extremely durable, it’s not ideal for below-grade applications like basements. Engineered hardwood consists of a real hardwood veneer top over a layered plywood core, improving stability in varying humidity conditions. It works for below-grade applications like basements and in some cases, over radiant heat.
Most residential hardwood flooring installation projects can be completed within a day. Larger homes or projects requiring extensive subfloor prep can take longer. Site-finished hardwood will take longer as the wood needs to be sanded, stained and sealed after installation.
Regular sweeping or vacuuming removes dirt or debris that can scratch the surface. Wipe up spills right away and use a damp (not wet) mop with a hardwood floor cleaner as needed. Never use excessive water or harsh chemicals. Place mats at entryways to reduce dirt and grit.
Hardwood flooring prices depend on the species, grade, width, finish type and installation complexity. Prefinished engineered hardwood is generally more affordable than solid hardwood with custom site finishing.
