The boss and I are planning on ripping up 660 sf of carpet and
replacing it with hardwood. The advantage of engineered is virtually
no movement. The advantage of solid is multiple refinishing

They make engineered that has a thick enough finish ply that it can be
sanded and refinished. Look into that for the best of both worlds.


I agree - I think the engineered stuff that we saw was about 3/16
on the top layer - careful sanding for touch-ups ...
I wouldn't take a big floor sander to it ..

Engineered for on slab or below grade. solid hardwood for well
conditioned above ground flooring.
