UNDERSTANDING YOUR FLOOR

You’ll likely order a number of wood floor samples before you make your final choice. Remember, your Ted Todd retailer is on hand to help you with these more technical elements, but for now, here are some handy definitions to help you understand the key elements of your floor.

WEAR LAYER The wear layer is a great indicator of quality in engineered boards, as this is what makes a floor long lasting. It is the section of the board that sits above the tongue and groove, and the thicker the wear layer the more times you can re-sand it over the years. All of our engineered floors have wear layers of at least 3mm, up to 6mm.

FINISH The majority of our floors are pre-finished, saving you time and money when it comes to installation. Beware of the hidden costs associated with other wood floor manufacturers whose products require additional on-site finishing.

SUSTAINABLY SOURCED WOOD

DEPTH We offer floors with a minimum 10mm up to 22mm thickness. Our floors with the highest thickness deliver a great quality option that out-perform even traditional solid wood floors. Make sure you check thicknesses when choosing your floor to make sure you compare like-for-like options.

Always check whether the floor you are purchasing is FSC ® -certified or equivalent. Most companies charge extra for this certification, but we include it as standard because we believe it’s the right thing to do.
