Identify Your Flooring

The most common type of wooden floor is hardwood. In terms of the type of wood, there are many hard woods that are used for hardwood floors. Perhaps the most common include maple, oak and walnut. Exotic woods like teak can also be used for hardwood flooring. A hardwood floor can also be made out of pine although pine is technically a soft wood.

Parquet flooring is a little more intricate. It uses pieces of wood and configures them in a geometric pattern.
