Solid hardwood flooring - Hardwood flooring is available in both an unfinished and a pre-finished version. Unfinished flooring must be job-site sanded and finished after installation. Pre-finished flooring is sanded and finished at the factory - so it only needs installation. Engineered wood flooring. Laminate flooring - Laminate flooring is typically constructed with a high density fibre-board core, sandwiched between a melamine laminate backing, high quality photographic paper with an image of wood, stone or other natural flooring, and a melamine laminate top. There are a few new hybrid products that replace the photographic paper with a very thin slice of real wood veneer Structured flooring. Parquet flooring - This has a very different look from typical hardwoods. They are made up of geometrical patterns composed of individual wood slates held in place by mechanical fastening or an adhesive.
