Hardwood Flooring

Maple flooring is extremely versatile and can fit anyone’s decor style. Maple is subdued enough to not demand attention, yet it features a closed and uniform grain which gives the flooring an attractive appearance.

Maple flooring is available in a range of colours from light oiled to dark stained. This further adds to the versatility of maple flooring — and after all, who doesn’t love options?

Maple trees are abundant in Canada, and they grow at a rapid speed. This makes maple flooring both a more affordable and eco-friendly choice than other types of wood.

Additionally, there are several grades of maple flooring. If you’re interested in more budget-friendly options, consider second or third grade maple wood. There’s nothing wrong with lower grade wood; it’s just as durable as first grade wood. The only difference is that second and third grade wood has colour streaks and small knots. This can be quite appealing for many people, especially if you’re interested in a rustic look for your flooring.

Maple is among the hardest of the hardwoods (and is even tougher than oak).

Did you know that bowling alleys and gym floors are typically made with maple flooring? It’s true — and if a bowling alley can withstand the slamming of sixteen-pound balls as they roll towards the pins, then your maple floors can stand up to the hustle and bustle of your home.

With maple flooring, you don’t have to worry about your pets running wild or your children dragging their toys throughout the home.

Maple flooring is simple to maintain and clean. All that is required is regular sweeping and light mopping using a mild soap solution — chances are you already have everything you need to do this at home.

Maple is also naturally resistant to mold and bacteria. This makes it an excellent choice for people who have allergies or breathing conditions. With maple flooring, you can breathe a little easier knowing that your flooring is improving your home’s indoor air quality.
