Wood Floor Distributors

Distributors of wood flooring are readily available, so it is important to choose the right one for you based on your budget and specific needs. The two major considerations that most people take into account are price and quality of lumber. This is a great place to start, as much of the lumber available is not sold at the same standards, and pricing isn't as regulated as other markets.

The price should reflect the grade of the lumber. So, the higher the grade, the more it will cost as a rule. Lumber for flooring is typically distributed in planks sized in inch-wide increments, from three to six inches or more. Flooring is graded on its two faces, or sides. The grading scale goes from Clear (the highest grade) through Select and No. 1 Common to No. 2 Common (the lowest).

Clear flooring will have no natural defect and more consistant color than the lower grades.

An ideal distributor will walk you through these and other specifications for wood flooring. You should be able to get a fast and easy quote and take it to other dealers to compare prices easily. If you can't get a solid quote form a distributor--move on.
