Prefinished Maple Flooring – Enjoy Your Hardwoods Faster

Want to move into your dream space with the elegance of maple hardwoods? You can make it happen faster by installing prefinished maple flooring. And you can do it with much less mess.

The Charm of Maple Flooring

Maple’s natural light color reflects light beautifully, creating a sense of spaciousness and elegance. It complements various design styles. So you can add a modest Scandinavian feel to your home or classic farmhouse charm. Think brighter rooms, airier vibes, and endless decorating possibilities.

Subtle Sophistication: Maple offers a finer, smoother texture, unlike oak’s bold grain. Its understated elegance creates a clean and contemporary look, perfect for highlighting furniture and artwork. The subtle variations within the grain add depth and character without overwhelming the space.

Rock-Solid Resilience: On the Janka hardness scale, maple boasts a score of 1450, exceeding even popular oak. This translates to floors that resist dents, scratches, and everyday wear. Maple flooring is ideal for high-traffic areas and active families.

Sustainable Statement: Maple trees grow relatively quickly, making them a more eco-friendly choice than slower-growing hardwoods. By choosing maple, you’re beautifying your home and making a responsible decision for the planet.

On-Site Finished Maple Flooring

You can approach installing maple floors in two ways.

First, purchase unfinished maple planks and install them in your room. Unfortunately, that’s only half the work because sanding, staining, and finishing your wood floors come next.

You must also factor in drying and curing time, generally at least 24 hours. It can easily take a solid week for all that to happen. Due to the fumes, you’ll likely want to leave the house during the staining and finishing process.

Let’s also remember the mess that sanding creates. For weeks, you’ll find sawdust traces throughout your home.

Installing Maple Prefinished

Your second approach is swinging by a local home center and picking up prefinished maple flooring. After you finish cutting and laying the flooring, the job is complete. Well, that is, except for some cleanup. For smaller rooms, you can move back into the room in a day, certainly two.

All the stain and finishing work occurs in a controlled environment at the factory, which helps remove many variables that can impact the floor’s finish. With on-site finishing, you risk missing some dust and debris that can create blemishes.

The factory’s finish is typically aluminum oxide, one of the hardest. That adds an impervious layer of protection to prefinished maple flooring, translating to fewer scratches, stains, and dings on your floors.

If you want a unique hardwood look and finish, on-site finishing is your best bet. You can customize your flooring to
suit your every need.

That said, prefinished maple flooring doesn’t lack colors and styles. Companies like Bruce®, for example, offer an assortment

Design aside, prefinished hardwood flooring gives you the luxury of:
