as described in
Wood flooring is any product manufactured from timber that is designed for use
as flooring, either structural or aesthetic. Wood is a common choice as a
flooring material due to its environmental profile, durability, and
restorability. Bamboo flooring is often considered a form of wood flooring,
although it is made from a grass (bamboo) rather than a timber.
Hardwood flooring
Solid hardwood floors are made of planks milled from a single piece of timber.
Solid hardwood floors were originally used for structural purposes, being
installed perpendicular to the wooden support beams of a building known as
joists or bearers. With the increased use of concrete as a subfloor in some
parts of the world, engineered wood flooring has gained some popularity.
However, solid wood floors are still common and popular. Solid wood floors have
a thicker wear surface and can be sanded and finished more times than an
engineered wood floor. It is not uncommon for homes in New England, Eastern
Canada, and Europe which are several hundred years old to have the original
solid wood floor still in use today.
Solid wood manufacturing
Solid wood flooring is milled from a single piece of timber that is kiln or air
dried before sawing. Depending on the desired look of the floor, the timber can
be cut in three ways: flat-sawn, quarter-sawn, and rift-sawn. The timber is cut
to the desired dimensions and either packed unfinished for a site-finished
installation or finished at the factory. The moisture content at time of
manufacturing is carefully controlled to ensure the product doesn't warp during
transport and storage.

There are a number of proprietary features for solid wood floors that are
available. Many solid woods come with grooves cut into the back of the wood that
run the length of each plank, often called 'absorption strips,' that are
intended to reduce cupping. Solid wood floors are mostly manufactured .75 inches
(19 mm) thick with a tongue-and-groove for installation.

Floor sanding
Main article: Floor sanding
Sanding provides a method for smoothing an installed floor, compensating for
unevenness of the subfloor. Additionally, sanding is used to renew the
appearance of older floors. Sanding using successively finer grades of sandpaper
is required to ensure even stain penetration when stains are used, as well as to
eliminate visible scratches from coarser sandpaper grades used initially. prior
to modern polyurethanes, oils and waxes were used in addition to stains to
provide finishes. Beeswax and linseed oil, for example, are both natural

proper use of vacuuming, sweeping, and damp mopping is usually all that is
required to maintain the cleanliness and appearance of a wood floor. Oil soaps
should not be used to clean the floors. The best suggestion is to use the
manufacturer's recommended cleaning products. Excessive grit and foot traffic
may affect appearance. A properly finished and maintained wood floor does not
accumulate hidden soil or odorous compounds
