Engineered for durability

Unlike solid hardwoods that are cut as whole planks from a single tree, an engineered hardwood plank is manufactured from many layers of carefully selected plywood that are bonded with heat, pressure, and adhesives. The result? An engineered hardwood plank that not only offers extreme strength and toughness but has a significantly reduced tendency to shrink, grow, or warp. 

Engineered hardwood has a much greater resistance to humidity and can be installed in places where solid hardwood would quickly become damaged and infested with mold. Overall, engineered hardwood makes for a very long-lasting and low-maintenance flooring material.

Nearly endless possibilities

Engineered hardwood comes in a huge range of wood species and textures and can be topped with any finish you prefer. The surface of these floors can be extremely versatile and adaptable, and with such impressive durability in the material, engineered hardwood is a very dependable long-term investment. Although solid hardwood lends itself to more extensive sanding, engineered hardwood can be sanded to a reasonable extent as well. Once sanded, it can be refinished and restyled to match new décor.

Installation from trained & certified professionals

Installation comes easier to engineered hardwood than it does to the classic solid material. The boards can be laid quickly and easily with a good amount of precision, and some brands can even be designed with a click system for more efficient installation.

Deerfoot Carpet and Flooring has an excellent privately-operated team of installers on standby who are ready to serve our customers’ needs. Our installers are certified, insured and bondable. Unlike many companies today, they do not work as a third-party to Deerfoot. This way, our customers can be confident that they are getting installation service from appropriately trained professionals who have been using our products for several years, some with more than 30 years of experience in the field.
