- Why Look at Oak?
If you’re planning on installing new hardwood floors in your home, you’ll have plenty of options. There are many different types of wood to choose from and all have something a bit different to offer. So which one is the best for you?
When it comes to variety of grain, price, and durability – Oak flooring might be your best choice. Oak Hardwood has become one of the most popular types of flooring in Australia over the past decade, but its reputation for old-world beauty and craftsmanship dates back centuries.
- Stability
Oak is one of the best options when it comes to stability. In terms of flooring, stability refers to the wood’s ability to respond to moisture levels by either shrinking or expanding. Compared with other types of wood – like Blackbutt or Blue-gum wood flooring, Oak is a much safer bet.
- Colour
Unlike many other types of wood, Oak has the benefit of being easily stained. This ability gives you the option of several different colors. Most other types of wood don’t stain as easily and therefore, you’re stuck with that color. With Oak, you are able to stain it as bright or as dark as you’d like to match the rooms décor.
Oak comes in a variety of natural colors ranging from light beige to brown and red. The same tree can display a whole spectrum of different colors within. Usually, the inner wood tends to be slightly darker than the outer wood, although this is not always so. Some woods stay the same color, white oak tends to darken over time if exposed to oxygen and U.V rays.
- Grain
There are several different types of grain characteristics that depend on the species of wood. French and European are the two predominant types sold in Australia and are both usually straight-grained, offering a “clean” look. Grades are excellent in OAK and VCS sell the PRONTO range which is one of the most beautiful timbers around.
- Maintenance
The maintenance required for oak is usually minimal but varies upon how the wood is finished and the amount of traffic on the floor. If the wood is properly sealed then it can withstand great amounts of moisture, and usually performs better than most species. If your flooring is made of engineered wood, it’s important to remember it will withstand exposure to moisture better than solid wood planks.
- Density
Oak is one of the densest hardwoods available, with French oak being just slightly denser than European in general though it is very close. Both types are much denser than other popular hardwoods like Tasmanian Oak, White Ash, and Walnut. Because of this hardness, both types of oak are more durable, being resistant to denting and scratching than almost any other type of wood on the market.
