Discover Distressed Solid Hardwood

What Is Distressed Solid Hardwood?
Distressed solid hardwood flooring takes wood's natural texture and character to the next level. This style of solid wood flooring has been deliberately crafted in a way that gives it a seasoned, heritage appearance. Techniques like hand scraping and wire-brushing give a more raised profile to the wood's surface—lending the finished floor a rustic appeal. The added texture also helps accentuate the wood's natural grain patterns, highlighting its natural character.
What Is the Difference Between Smooth and Distressed Hardwood?
Smooth hardwood flooring has had most of its natural texture sanded away to give it an almost polished appearance. Distressed hardwood, on the other hand, still has its unique graining and other features like saw marks and chatter marks. Both distressed and smooth hardwood flooring come in various colors and finishes to complement almost any décor.
Where Can You Install Distressed Flooring?
You can install distressed solid hardwood or any solid hardwood anywhere on or above grade. It's a particularly great choice for busy areas, as the deep texturing can help conceal any minor signs of wear that develop over time. The textured look makes a cozy yet practical foundation for hallways, entryways, and family rooms.
Distressed Flooring and Décor
With distressed flooring, the décor possibilities are endless. This timeless style can fit nearly any look. Distressed oak hardwood flooring has a casual elegance that lends itself to a rustic or modern farmhouse aesthetic, while distressed boards in lighter tones evoke a seaside retreat weathered by sand and saltwater.
