Different Types of Solid Wood Floors
Nowadays we majority of us still settle for hardwood floors as the best flooring option for your homes, but little we know that this type of flooring is derived from different species of lumber which is directly proportional to the quality and price of the said material.
Here the commonly used raw materials for your precious hardwood floors
Amendoim – is specie of wood that is native in North America, this type of raw material offers moderate durability compared to the other species of wood. The almost abundant supply make this type inexpensive compared to others. The distinct color makes it very popular it comes in Tan, orangey brown, and reds shades and in time changes to Medium tan with red highlights.
Ash – is also common in the Northern parts of America and is abundant so prices are closely similar that of Amendoim but offers greater durability making it a better option than Amendoim. Colors vary from tan to brown and in time changes to tans.
Australian Cypress – Is only found in remote regions of Australia making it one of the most expensive solid wood flooring its wide array of colors make it very popular and what is great about this specie is that it almost never change color even in time. Durability is also graded moderate.
Brazilian Teak – Native to Brazil and Peru only making it very expensive, this specie is also one of the strongest and most durable making it the best choice for high traffic areas and were abuse is most likely. The material's color ranges from tan to brown and color changes are unusual but if so it only changes to even out the color making it more beautiful in time.
Bloodwood – is found in Brazil, Peru and Venezuela making supply greater that of the others, As the name implies bloodwood has the most distinct color among the classes it comes in orange reds and in time mid orange and deep reds only.
Brazilian maple – Is also found in the tropical forest of Brazil and it comes in a very distinct beige and blonde shade making it popular if you want a more uncluttered and a lighter color room.

Another flooring question.?
I have 3/4" thick by 3" tongue & groove boards for my kitchen sub-floor. It's got to be more than 40 years old but its still very solid. We've redone the kitchen entirely and I know I should be laying down some 1/4" luan over the sub-floor to keep the individual boards tied together since the new finished floor will be running in the same direction. My question is, what is the thinnest solid wood floor do you think I could lay over all this? I was thinking 3/4" but if I can go thinner that would help me deal with the rise from the dining room to the kitchen. Can I go with a 3/8" or 1/2" thick flooring? We've been looking at Bellawood's Brazilian Cherry or Teak solid flooring.
The house was built in 1928 and is on a raised foundation if it helps to know.
Thanks
So it won't matter that my new finished floor will be running the same direction as my 3" wide sublfoor boards?
By all means you can go thinner. You can go w/ the 3/8 or 1/2 inch. There called engineered wood floors. Real good stuff since they come from the factory very straight. You can glue or staple this floors don t since there so straight.Takes a special staple gun on the 3/8 (which you can rent) Some 1/2 in you can use the full size staple gun that 3/4 uses. Check w/ manufacturer on there recommendation. One bad point on some of these you can t resand down and refinish like a full 3/4 board.Most come now w/ an aluminum oxide finish that is very tough. But its wood you still can scratch it w/ a pebble in the tennis shoe.( As you can w/ any wood).I love the engineered wood it goes together so much easier than 3/4 in Both woods have good and bad points GL
