When it comes to buying wooden flooring, many consumers find themselves overwhelmed by the variety of colors and textures available. But what are the common mistakes people make when purchasing wooden floors? Let’s take a closer look at some of the most frequent misconceptions, as shared by Jiuzheng Building Materials Network.
Misconception One: Preferring Plain Boards Over Painted Ones
Some buyers believe that plain boards are more authentic, like real eucalyptus wood, and think they can save money by skipping the painting process. However, this isn’t always the case. The paint used on floors can sometimes lead to contamination or poor quality, which might affect both the appearance and durability of the floor. Modern manufacturers use automated production lines that not only improve efficiency but also reduce environmental impact, resulting in safer and more eco-friendly products.
Misconception Two: Overemphasizing Color Uniformity
Oak flooring is a natural product, and as such, it's normal for the color and grain to vary depending on where the tree grew and how it was exposed to sunlight. Even within the same piece of wood, differences in cutting positions can result in variations in color and texture. This natural variation—often referred to as “color deviation†or “uneven patternâ€â€”is not a flaw, but rather a sign of authenticity. Trying to achieve perfect uniformity may actually compromise the beauty of the natural wood.
Misconception Three: Believing Solid Wood Isn't Eco-Friendly
Some consumers worry that solid wood flooring contains formaldehyde and is therefore harmful to the environment. While it's true that wood can release small amounts of formaldehyde, especially in multi-layer constructions, the levels are typically well within national safety standards. As long as the product is certified and meets these regulations, solid wood flooring can be a safe and environmentally responsible choice.
