Red Oak Flooring
Overview
Most of today’s cheaper Red Oak strip flooring comes from warmer climates, where it grows too fast and produces an unattractive grain. This is truly unfortunate, because Red Oak that has been allowed to slowly mature in cooler climates produces a striking floor that can be as rustic or modern as you wish to make it. So if you think of Red Oak as being a bit “too common,” think again!
Carlisle’s Red Oak is sustainably harvested in the Northern Appalachians, where slow growth produces tight, consistent grain; maximum heartwood; and exceptional widths and lengths.
