Wood flooring companies

Today there are many wood flooring companies, some better than others by far. With the growing popularity of wood floors, and the newest finish technology it seems very overwhelming to try and understand all of the options available.

As the consumer it is very difficult sometimes to dig deep enough to understand why one wood floor may cost $3.99 per sf and another may cost $7.99. (trust us on this there is a GOOD reason in most cases.)  The flooring professor will help you sort through the pros and cons of each wood flooring company and guide you through making the right choice of wood floor manufacturer to purchase from.

The number of wood flooring companies or wood floor brands has skyrocketed in recent years. When making a wood flooring purchase it is crucial that you understand how the system works in order to make the right choice.

Wood flooring brands really are similar to any other flooring brand as we discuss in our flooring brands section. Some brands such as Bruce, Hartco, and Robbins for example are large enough (all are a division of Armstrong flooring if you did not know) to make their own products and many they do, but others they subcontract the production. This is commonplace in many industries including the flooring industry.

One company We have worked VERY closely with that produces a premium quality product is Lauzon. This is one of the rare wood flooring companies that owns their own forest, cuts, processes, mills, and finishes their own product with a complete hands on approach. This is just one example of some of the different ways wood flooring companies approach the process of going from tree to your floor with wood floor products.

The flooring professor works very hard to bring you accurate real life reviews of as many products and services as possible. Below is a list of the bamboo flooring brands that we have rated to date. We know you will find these mini brand specific hardwood flooring reviews to be very useful.
