⚖️ Engineered vs. Solid Hardwood

Engineered hardwoodis real wood on top, plywood underneath. It handles Ontario's humidity swings better than solid, can go over concrete or radiant heat, and costs less to install.

Solid hardwood(¾" pure wood) can be refinished 5+ times and has the highest resale value — but can't go below grade or over concrete.
