What You Should Know About Wood Floors
When you choose wood flooring for your new home, Pride Mark will provide manufacturer's care and warranty information. However, before making your final selection, it's important that you understand the following:

Engineered wood floors are comprised of several layers of bonded construction hardwood, with the top layer stained and finished. There may be variations in the height and width of individual boards.

Wood is a natural product, so color, texture, grain, and appearance can vary. Design Center samples are for color guidance only, and wood installed in your home will come from a different lot.

Heeled shoes, unpadded furniture rests, and dropping sharp, heavy objects will dent or scratch wood floors. Protect your floors with furniture padding.

Wood floors are engineered with a "tongue in groove" design. This leaves slight space between boards, which will vary from one design to another, and may expand or contract based on weather and humidity.

Wood floors are not recommended for wet areas, such as kitchens or bathrooms, and will not be warranted against problems related to excessive moisture. Do not use water to clean your wood flooring.

Prolonged sunlight may fade or shade flooring. Protect it by using proper window coverings.

Follow manufacturer recommendations for wood floor care.
