Varieties of Hardwood
Hardwood floors are an old standard and because it is a historic standard, there have been many years to let the industry age like fine wine. Variations and changes to this industry take many avenues. For example, there are many different kinds of wood that have become more affordable. In the past, your choices were mainly maple, oak and sometimes poplar. There are also many options for typically softer woods that had a harder wood brother or sister. A good example of this is cedar and pine.
However, there are many other hardwoods in the world and in this country that are also excellent hardwood flooring materials. In the past, these were not grown or harvested for flooring. They were mainly only used for furniture because of the expense. Now that we have tree farms that are specifically growing specific kinds of hardwoods for flooring, the prices decreased significantly and the burden to the environment as well.
