While there’s nothing quite like the charm of an old wood floor, modern distressing techniques that give new floors an aged appearance can come pretty close. By wearing away the softer grains or adding imperfections to the planks, distressing techniques give new floorboards an old wood floor texture that adds a sense of character and heritage to any floor.
At Carlisle Wide Plank Floors, our craftsmen use a variety of wood floor texture techniques to create truly one-of-a-kind surfaces that become stunning design elements for stylish interiors. Our expert design consultants can work with you to explore your options for textured wood flooring as well as a wide selection of hardwoods, grades, color and pattern to create a floor that will become a defining feature of your home.
Carlisle craftsmen use a variety of techniques to create the less-than-perfect surfaces that are typical of older floors.
Old wood floor texture may refer to the types of marks and rough patches that were left on wooden planks by early sawmills or watermills. Old wood floor texture may also refer to the gently worn appearance of boards that have been lived on and walked on for generations.
We recreate old wood floor texture by adding marks and imperfections to floors, and by using tools that wear away the grain in new floorboards – just as time, weather and foot traffic can wear down older floorboards.
Yes. Carlisle engineered floors can easily be treated with a variety of texturing techniques. Engineered floors are designed for installation in basements, over radiant heat or on concrete slab – locations that may be exposed to extreme temperatures and higher levels of moisture and humidity.
Yes. The prefinishing process enables us to add hardwood floor texture and to sand, stain and seal a floor within the ideal conditions of our workshop. Your prefinished floor will arrive at your home ready for a fast and less expensive installation. Plus, you’ll have the benefit of avoiding the hassle and mess of having a floor sanded and stained inside your home.
