SMOOTH
Transform your home with elegant Smooth prefinished Hardwood Flooring by Vintage. Our hardwood has unmatched quality, beauty and durability. With the smallest micro-v bevel in the industry, Vintage’s smooth floors are easier to keep clean and looking beautiful for years. With several species, grades, widths and colors to choose from, you can easily find your style.
SHOP
WIRE BRUSHED
Not to be confused with Hand Scraped floors, Wire Brushed floors are another unique and beautiful option for a textured floor. During manufacturing, these floors go through a rotating wire brush that removes the sapwood or softer spring grain of the wood, highlighting the natural richness of each species.These floors tend to hide dents and scratches extremely well and everyday wear is blended in. Wire brushing is very conducive to achieving 2 tone floors, giving you a European style and look.
SHOP
SCULPTED
A modern twist on traditional hand scraped hardwood floors, made in Canada from premium oak hardwood. “Sculpting” the wood adds depth and detail to the wood. This texture helps hide everyday scratches and dents.
SHOP
HAND SCRAPED
Hand scraped hardwood has a distinct look and old world feel that goes back hundreds of years. Each board of Vintage’s hand scraped hardwood flooring is unique, scraped and crafted by hand then stamped on the back by the craftsman. Hand scraped floors tend to require less maintenance than smooth finish floors and help hide everyday wear. They are contoured to accentuate the natural beauty and character of each species.
SHOP
BLADE
Blade is a blend of circular saw marks, linear band saw marks and wire brushing and has a look of an old world floor that were made using rough sawn lumber but with modern day quality and finishes.
SHOP
RIFT & QUARTER SAWN
Rift & Quarter Sawn wood is cut at a specific angle to increase stability and minimize warping. Rift Sawn wood has a linear look and the Quarter Sawn wood has an amazing ribbon-like effect and some flecking. These cuts of wood are combined since they compliment each other to create a beautiful, stable floor.
SHOP
CHEVRON
Chevron shaped boards are all exactly the same size and shape, and produce a classic V-shaped zig zag pattern since the sides meet to a point. With these boards many patterns can be created.
SHOP
HERRINGBONE
Herringbone is a classic geometrical pattern made from individual strips of hardwood and assembled to create the typical V shape.
