Hardwood is one of the most practical, easy-care, and versatile floor coverings available today. Wood floors come in more than 50 species, both domestic and exotic, and you can choose from a nearly limitless choice of styles, designs, stains, and finishes, based on your design tastes and budget.

Wood flooring enhances the warmth of any home and, like a fine piece of furniture, increases in value and becomes more beautiful with time. In a national survey, 90 percent of real estate agents said homes with hardwood sell faster and for more money.
