Pre Finished Hardwood

Quick, less mess, and beautiful

What Is Pre-Finished Hardwood?

Pre-finished hardwood flooring has grown considerably over the last fifteen years as hardwood manufacturing has become more technical and delivered more style, design, and performance options. As you might imagine, in the case of pre-finished hardwood flooring, the finish is part of the flooring manufacturing process, and the product ships to your home ready for installation.

What that means is that:

The floorboards are particularly durable as a result of the aluminum oxide finish.
Installation is faster and easier, and furniture can be placed on the floor immediately after the installation. At the same time, you may not have as many color and finish options, but you can add borders and medallions to completely customize the result.

Pre-Finished Flooring Means Durable Flooring

When the flooring manufacturer finishes wood, it uses commercial processes in a controlled environment to apply powerful chemical sealers such as aluminum, titanium, or other oxides embedded in a UV-cured urethane coat, which adds the equivalent of the second hardest surface known to man (i.e., diamond) to the finish. In most cases, the end result is harder than anything applied on-site. The finish lasts considerably longer and carries a better warranty for the homeowner (e.g., 5 to 25 years vs. 5 to 10 years for site-applied finishes).

Above, you read how involved on-site finished flooring installation is. That's not the case with pre-finished flooring, which requires no sanding and staining. Instead, once installed, you can immediately walk, set up furniture, and start living on your floors with lots less mess.

Easier Installation with Pre-Finished Flooring

Easier Floor Maintenance

The durable finish on pre-finished flooring means that it's often easier to maintain your floors as they'll be better able to withstand stains, scratches, and the general abuse of daily living. Although refinishing your floors will be more involved (i.e., heavy sanding to remove that intensely hard finish), you won't need to do so for a long time. To make repairs, you'll need to either replace the problem section or refinish the entire floor.
