• Traditional Site-Finished Solid Hardwood - This is the real thing - solid hardwood, a huge variety of woods and finishes, designed to be sanded and finished on-site.
• Prefinished Solid Hardwood - Solid wood, factory finished. Does not offer the same smoothness as site-finished, but is quicker and easier to self-install.
• Engineered Flooring - Offers a beautiful old-fashioned wide-plank appearance, without the cracking or warping of old-style wide-plank flooring. Can be resanded and refinished for a lifetime of use.
• Laminate Flooring - Although not real wood, laminate flooring offers the appearance of real wood, and easy do-it-yourself installation.
• Tavern and Cabin Grade Wood Floors - These character floors offer rustic grade appearances at reasonable prices.
• Unfinished Softwood Flooring - Great for gymnasiums where soft shoes are worn, softwood offers a cushioned surface at a reasonable price. Call for more information.
• Hardwood Flooring Accessories - TimberTown stocks Registers, Reducer, Nosing, Spline, Accent Strips (Oak, Maple, Birch, Walnut, Cherry, Ash) stains and finishes. See our inventory in-store.
