Hampton Suite Engineered Wide Plank Wood Flooring With Maple Wood Finish

To generate a feeling of warmth in areas where families and friends love to gather, a natural hardwood floor is a great choice. Our Hampton Suite Maple Finish Engineered Hardwood Wide Plank Wood Flooring delivers this feeling in an engineered plank with multiple stain color options.

Our hand scraped flooring will provide a vintage appearance. It yields a look that people would expect to find in an old English pub, featuring incredible richness and attention to detail.

Vintage Reclaimed Wood Appearance

This wide plank wood flooring consists of a character-grade maple veneer layer. It allows the natural beauty of the wood grain to show through.

By using real maple hardwood in the veneer layer, it also contains the knots and filled splits that contribute to the vintage design. This gives installers a far different look and feel to the flooring versus laminate or vinyl planks that attempt to simulate actual wood.

The hand scraped texture adds to the character of this flooring. As each plank has a 7-1/2 inch width measurement, the planks look like the real thing, just as if the designer removed them from a traditional pub and relocated them to the home or office.

Multiple Color Stain Options

Installers are able to select among several different stain colors in our wide plank wood flooring. This simplifies the ability of the designer to match the color to the overall design of any room in the home.

Select among light grey, dark brown, or light brown. Each plank has a wide range of shades within the veneer layer, which mimics the look of real hardwood flooring. Actual hardwoods always show the wood grain and offer random shades of color from plank to plank.

Installation Tips for Wide Plank Wood Flooring

One of the biggest benefits of this type of engineered hardwood flooring is that it carries a far lower cost than actual hardwood planks.

Because vintage flooring planks consist of actual hardwood throughout the entire thickness of the planks, they have a high cost. With our engineered flooring planks, the thin veneer hardwood layer sits atop a plywood layer.

By using plywood in the base layer, we save quite a bit of money per square foot versus a full thickness hardwood plank. This design also conserves the valuable maple hardwood as a natural resource.

The plywood layer is completely hidden underneath the maple veneer layer, so visitors never see the plywood. This creates a sharp-looking floor that visitors will guess is a real hardwood floor.

There’s a tongue and groove edging on the plywood layer, which simplifies the process of connecting the adjacent planks. This means a homeowner can do the job without needing to hire a professional, completing the job in very little time.

During the layout of the planks, the installer should stagger the ends of the planks so the seams do not line up next to each other in adjacent rows.

Each carton ships with random lengths of between 11 and 83 inches, which simplifies creating a stagger in the adjacent rows. Installers also can cut the planks with a power saw to fit into the desired space, such as when abutting against a wall.

Installers can use a floating floor installation, where they do not attach the planks to the subfloor. Installers will need to use tongue and groove glue on the edges of the planks to ensure they remain connected when the floor experiences stress from heavy furniture and people walking on it.

The planks can also be secured to the subfloor, installers can use glue or brad nails to attach the connected planks to the subfloor

For the nail down attachment, installers should use lengths of brad nails between 1-1/2 and 1-3/4 inches. Place nails in each plank about 4 to 5 inches apart.

For the glue down attachment, look to use urethane-based glue for the best results.

Maintenance and Care

Taking care of this wide plank wood flooring is an easy process, as it does not require consistent maintenance.

For short-term cleaning, customers can sweep it, use a dust mop, or vacuum it with a brush or felt attachment. Do not use a beater bar head on a vacuum over the top of this floor, as it could cause scratches or damage to the veneer.

Clean up any spills or pet accidents as soon as possible. Do not use harsh cleaners when wet mopping the floor. Stick with a wood floor cleaning product to remove grease or smudges.

The hardwood floors may begin to lose their luster over time. If so, apply a fresh coat of urethane finish over the top to restore the luster
