FEATURED PRODUCTS
SOLID PREFINISHED HARDWOOD.
Solid prefinished hardwood comes with a factory finish. Each board is already stained and varnished and this gives the end user the convenience of simply having to install the floorboards without having to deal with the staining and finishing process. With a wide range of species and colour choices available, installing prefinished hardwood is the most convenient choice for homeowners. BH Floors carries a large assortment of prefinished hardwood floors in hundreds of stain colours in both domestic and exotic species from all over the world. Sizes range anywhere from 2 1/4″ to 5 1/4″ wide planks.
ADVANTAGES OF SOLID PREFINISHED HARDWOOD.
Solid prefinished hardwood comes with a factory finish, meaning out of the box each board is already stained and varnished. This gives the end user the convenience of simply having to install the floorboards and not deal with the staining and finishing process. Since all the curing of the stain and finish is completed at the factory, there will be no dust from sanding, no fumes from chemicals, and no waiting time for the finish to dry in the home.
Factory applied urethane finishes are much tougher and longer lasting than site-applied finishes. Hardening agents such as aluminum oxide are added to factory finished floors to extend their durability, making them up to three times harder than on-site finishes applied in the home. Factory finished floors are thereby also warranted to last longer, typically 15 to 50 years versus 1 to 5 years for on-site finished floors.
Prefinished manufacturers offer a large selection of stain colours, styles, finishes, grades, and species of hardwood to compliment any room in the house. No matter how diverse or unique your needs are, there is always an option for you.
A hardwood floor minimizes allergies and increases the air quality by eliminating trapped dust particles that typically occur in other flooring options. They do not retain irritants or allergens that can trouble allergy sufferers or people with respiratory problems, thereby making it a healthy choice for interior living environments.
Installing solid hardwood flooring is an excellent long term investment that will hold and even increase the value of your home exceeding the initial installation cost. Studies suggest that houses with hardwood flooring sell much faster than those featuring other types of floors. Real estate agents and investors recognize the value of hardwood flooring. Therefore, it can become a strong resale feature which enables a faster sale and brings higher prices at the time of resale.
Solid Hardwood floors can be sanded and refinished multiple times thereby extended the longevity of your floor. When you decide to refinish your floor in the future you will have the option of changing the colour or finish if desired to create an entirely new look.

PREFINISHED HARDWOOD VS. UNFINISHED HARDWOOD.
Choose the convenience and sleek finish of our Prefinished Hardwood, ready to enhance your space immediately after installation, eliminating the need for in-home sanding and finishing. This means no extra dust or odors, just a swift, clean setup. Explore more about our Laminate Flooring and Luxury Vinyl options for alternative solutions.
Walk on your new Prefinished Hardwood floors right after they're laid down. In contrast, Unfinished Hardwood demands a drying period post-installation, extending project timelines. Our Prefinished floors incorporate aluminum oxide hardeners for exceptional durability, especially in high-traffic areas, unlike on-site finished floors. Expect a robust lifespan of 15 to 50 years, significantly outlasting the 1 to 5-year duration of on-site finished floors.
In our controlled manufacturing environment, Prefinished Hardwood is protected from contamination, a challenge when finishing floors on-site. Some varieties even feature sun guard protection to prevent yellowing over time, an attribute absent in Unfinished floors.
While Prefinished Hardwood offers ease and efficiency in installation, Unfinished Hardwood allows for more customization, including matching existing house floors. Discover more about our diverse Hardwood Flooring selections.
The design subtleties also differ. Prefinished planks have small bevels for dimensional aesthetics, whereas Unfinished planks boast square edges, offering a seamless look that aligns with traditional decor and historical homes’ architectural integrity.
SOLID HARDWOOD VS. ENGINEERED HARDWOOD.
Discover Ottawa's premier flooring solutions with BH Floors. Our Solid Hardwood, a cherished choice among Ottawa homeowners, is expertly crafted from a robust, 3/4" thick wood piece, offering a rich selection of stains, species, and grades.
