R.L. Colston 3/4 in. Utility Oak Unfinished Solid Hardwood Flooring 3.25 in Wide, $2.49 USD/Box, LL Flooring (Lumber Liquidators)

The unfinished solid oak hardwood features a straight grain pattern varying subtly across planks, with pink and deep crimson hues adding a natural warmth. A popular choice for its hardness, the final finish you'll choose will influence the floor's color, gloss, and durability. Ideal for dry living spaces on or above the ground floor. Professional installation is suggested using nails or glue. Prepare by mixing planks from different boxes and, over wood, using an underlayment is advised for sound and thermal improvement. Over concrete, use a high-quality moisture-resistant adhesive. Post-installation care is straightforward, using sweeping or vacuuming and Bellawood Cleaning Solution. A well-maintained floor can last for decades. Remember, lighting can affect appearance, so try free samples at home at different times of the day to ensure satisfaction. Species include mixed red and white oak with tongue and groove edges, installable via nail or glue.
