Engineered Hardwood – Bring the Classic Beauty of Wood to Your Walls

Engineered Hardwood brings together the elegant look of solid wood and the reliability of a stable core that can tolerate fluctuations in temperature and humidity. The planks come in wider widths that align with modern trends and you can install them at any level of the house, including the basement. LL Flooring is home to several brands that offer engineered hardwood products of a variety of species, including acacia, oak, hickory, and more.

Colors range from white to onyx and include various shades of browns and reds in between, ready to match every type of space and personality. There are also various finishes, from distressed to smooth textures and looks, allowing for further customization to integrate with your special space.

How to Install

For wall installation, the most often used method is a combination of glue, nails, or screws, which are applied to the back of the planks in a serpentine fashion. You then drive the nails directly through the drywall into the studs, or perhaps a layer of plywood. Any substrate must be clean, dry, and flat. It's important to let the planks acclimate to the environment as you wood for flooring.

How to Care

Just as with hardwood, it's important that you maintain the environment to which your chosen product is best suited. Engineered hardwood installed on walls needs regular care to maintain its rich quality. For cleaning and scratch repair, check out the array of floor care products available at LL Flooring.

Engineered Bamboo – Natural Walls for Your Peace of Mind

Bamboo flooring provides a natural wood look but often for a lower cost than hardwood. It is also a strong wood, making it less susceptible to scratches and dents—a great choice for spaces with active families and pets. Bamboo also stains well, allowing you to keep its natural look or make it mimic the look of the traditional hardwood. LL Flooring offers engineered bamboo flooring, which consists of a veneer of solid bamboo attached to a core for extra stability, and to better handle temperature and humidity fluctuation. You can install it at any level of your home with a properly prepared substrate. Bamboo flooring comes in a wide variety of colors, shades, and widths to best suit your space and personality.

How to Install and Maintain

Follow the recommended acclimation advice for your chosen product. The specifics will depend on what the core is made from, and for best results we recommend maintaining your home environment just as you would if you were installing your product as flooring. The install method is the same as engineered wood. Once the wall is installed, you can use floor cleaners and other care products offered at LL Flooring to help keep your wall long-lasting for years to come.
