Pre Finished Hardwood
Quick, less mess, and beautiful
What Is Pre-Finished Hardwood?
Pre-finished hardwood flooring has become increasingly popular in recent years, thanks to advancements in hardwood manufacturing technology. This type of flooring offers a convenient solution for homeowners, as the finish is applied during the manufacturing process, eliminating the need for on-site finishing.
With pre-finished hardwood flooring, the floorboards come ready for installation, complete with a durable finish that enhances their longevity and performance. The finish often includes coatings like aluminum oxide, providing superior resistance to scratches, stains, and wear.
One of the key advantages of pre-finished hardwood flooring is the ease and speed of installation. Since the finish is already applied, installation is typically faster and simpler compared to traditional hardwood flooring. Additionally, you can place furniture on the floor immediately after installation, minimizing downtime and disruption to your home.
While pre-finished hardwood flooring may offer fewer color and finish options compared to on-site finishing, you still have the flexibility to customize your floors. You can incorporate borders and medallions to create unique and personalized designs that complement your home's aesthetic.
Overall, pre-finished hardwood flooring provides a convenient and durable flooring solution that offers style, performance, and ease of installation. Contact us today to explore our selection of pre-finished hardwood flooring options and find the perfect fit for your home.
Pre-Finished Flooring Means Durable Flooring
When it comes to pre-finished flooring, durability is the name of the game. Unlike on-site finishing, where the application of sealers and coatings may vary, pre-finished flooring undergoes a rigorous manufacturing process in a controlled environment.
During manufacturing, wood flooring undergoes specialized treatment, including the application of powerful chemical sealers like aluminum, titanium, or other oxides. These sealers are embedded in a UV-cured urethane coat, creating a protective layer that adds incredible strength and resilience to the flooring.
In fact, the finish applied to pre-finished flooring often exceeds the durability of anything applied on-site. With the addition of these powerful sealers, the flooring achieves a level of hardness comparable to some of the toughest materials known to man, such as diamond.
Not only does pre-finished flooring offer unparalleled durability, but it also boasts an extended lifespan. The finish lasts considerably longer than site-applied finishes, typically carrying warranties ranging from 5 to 25 years. This provides homeowners with peace of mind, knowing that their investment is protected for years to come.
In summary, pre-finished flooring is synonymous with durability, offering homeowners a reliable and long-lasting flooring solution. Experience the benefits of pre-finished flooring for yourself by exploring our wide selection of options at Express Hardwood & Flooring.
Easier Installation with Pre-Finished Flooring
Unlike the complex process of on-site finished flooring installation, installing pre-finished hardwood is a breeze. With pre-finished flooring, there's no need for sanding or staining on-site. Once installed, you can immediately walk on your floors, set up furniture, and start enjoying your space with minimal mess. Additionally, pre-finished hardwood often comes with tongue-and-groove or click-lock installation systems, further simplifying the installation process.
Moreover, pre-finished hardwood flooring typically comes with factory-applied coatings that provide added protection against scratches, stains, and wear. This means less maintenance and upkeep for homeowners, as the durable finish helps preserve the beauty of the flooring for years to come.
The robust finish applied to pre-finished flooring offers remarkable durability, making it significantly easier to maintain your floors. With its superior resistance to stains, scratches, and daily wear and tear, pre-finished flooring stands up admirably to the rigors of everyday life. While the prospect of refinishing may seem daunting due to the intense sanding required to remove the tough finish, the need for such maintenance is greatly minimized over time. In the event of repairs, options include replacing the affected section or refinishing the entire floor, ensuring longevity and continued beauty for years to come.
