Engineered Hardwood Flooring — Real Wood, Built Stable

Engineered hardwood gives you a genuine wood surface over a layered core that stays flat through Canadian winters and humid summers. This collection spans over a thousand floors: European white oak from Kährs and Vidar, waterproof Woodura from Bjelin, plus Grandeur, Coswick, Pravada and more in wide-plank, herringbone and classic strip formats.

How to choose engineered hardwood

Three specs matter most. Wear layer thickness: a 2–3 mm veneer covers normal wear; 4 mm+ can be sanded and refinished once or twice, effectively doubling the floor's life. Plank width: 7–9" wide planks are today's standard look — wider planks show more grain but demand a flatter subfloor. Finish: UV-cured urethane is the low-maintenance default; oiled finishes look richer and spot-repair invisibly but need periodic re-oiling. Most floors here are prefinished click-lock, so they float or glue down without site finishing. Expect roughly $4–$7/sq ft for quality oak lines and $7–$12 for premium wide-plank European brands — still the material with the strongest effect on resale value. Over radiant heat or below grade, engineered is the only hardwood construction that belongs there.

Frequently asked questions

What is engineered hardwood flooring?

A real hardwood wear layer bonded to a layered plywood or HDF core. The surface is genuine wood - what changes is the construction underneath, which makes the plank far more stable through humidity swings than solid wood.

Can engineered hardwood be refinished?

It depends on the wear layer. A 2-3 mm veneer handles a light screen-and-recoat; 4 mm and thicker can be fully sanded and refinished once or twice, effectively doubling the floor's life.

Is engineered hardwood good for Canadian climates?

Yes - it's the recommended wood construction for Canada. The cross-layered core stays flat through dry winters and humid summers, and it's the only hardwood suitable over radiant heat or below grade.

Engineered vs solid hardwood - which should I buy?

Both have a genuine wood surface. Engineered is more stable, comes in wider planks, installs over concrete and radiant heat, and costs less per square foot. Solid offers maximum refinishing potential but needs stable humidity and a wood subfloor.

Is there waterproof engineered hardwood?

Yes - Bjelin's Woodura hardened wood floors are surface-waterproof, and several brands offer water-resistant cores. Standard engineered hardwood is water-resistant but not waterproof; wipe spills promptly.

Do you ship engineered hardwood across Canada and to the USA?

Yes - Canada-wide delivery from Vancouver, and eight brands (including Kährs, Vidar, Bjelin and Grandeur) ship to US addresses via our engineered hardwood USA page.
