Solid hardwood flooring is a look that never goes out of style. Along with being one of the highest-end, most attractive flooring choices, it increases the value of your home and is a great long-term investment. Solid hardwood flooring is constructed with 100% hardwood and each plank is a single solid piece of wood, so if you want to change the color of the floor, it can be refinished rather than replaced.
