Gaylord Hardwood Flooring Leaf

Oak

Oak is the most commonly recognized species used to produce hardwood flooring and probably the most recognized North American wood in general.

Oak has a beautifully defined grain, and creates a timeless looking hardwood floor.

Most consumers think oak is a very hard wood, but in reality, it is the fourth hardest North American species we produce. It is a very stable wood to use in flooring and performs well with fluctuations of humidity.

Our oak is finished with a very smooth finish and will not appear pitted like the majority of our prefinished competitors.
