HARDWOOD FLOORING
Natural Beauty. Built to Last.
Discover premium engineered and solid hardwood flooring selected for the way we live in the Okanagan. From timeless natural oak to wide-plank contemporary designs, our showroom brings together exceptional hardwood collections for every style of home.
REAL WOOD. NATURAL CHARACTER.
Hardwood That Makes the Room
Few materials change the character of a home like real hardwood. Natural grain, subtle colour variation and the warmth of wood create a floor that becomes part of the architecture rather than simply covering it.
At Sierra Flooring, our showroom features carefully selected hardwood collections ranging from traditional solid hardwood to today’s wide-plank engineered floors. Our team can help you compare species, colours, grades, plank widths and construction methods to find the right floor for your home.
UNDERSTANDING HARDWOOD
Engineered or Solid Hardwood?
Both are genuine hardwood floors. The difference is how the plank is constructed and where it can be installed.
Engineered Hardwood
Engineered hardwood uses a genuine hardwood surface layer over a multi-layer core designed to improve dimensional stability. It has become one of the most popular hardwood choices for modern homes.
- Genuine hardwood surface
- Greater dimensional stability
- Excellent choice for wide-plank flooring
- Can be suitable over concrete
- Many products can be used with radiant heat when approved by the manufacturer
- Installation options may include nail, glue or floating systems depending on the product
- Refinishing potential depends on the thickness of the hardwood wear layer
BEST FOR: Modern construction, wide planks, concrete substrates and areas where greater dimensional stability is desirable.
Solid Hardwood
Solid hardwood is milled from a single piece of natural wood from top to bottom. It offers traditional hardwood construction and can provide generations of service when properly installed and maintained.
- One solid piece of hardwood
- Traditional hardwood construction
- Can generally be sanded and refinished multiple times depending on remaining thickness
- Usually nailed or stapled to an appropriate wood substrate
- Best suited to controlled interior environments
- Naturally expands and contracts as humidity changes
- Available in many classic wood species and grades
BEST FOR: Traditional installations over wood subfloors where long-term refinishing potential is a priority.
Not sure which construction is right for your project? Our showroom team can review your subfloor, room conditions, installation method and design goals before recommending a product.
From Rustic Character to Clean Contemporary
Hardwood can completely change the personality of a room. Wide natural planks can create a relaxed contemporary interior, while richer tones and traditional species bring warmth and depth to classic homes.
Our showroom allows you to compare large samples in person so you can see the true variation, texture and colour of the wood before making your selection.

CUSTOM CRAFTSMANSHIP
Hardwood Stairs Built Around the Home
A hardwood floor shouldn’t stop at the staircase. Sierra Flooring can create custom hardwood stair systems designed to carry the same material, colour and architectural detail throughout the home.
From traditional closed staircases to modern floating treads, our installers work with the flooring, stair components and surrounding finishes to create a finished result that feels intentional from one level to the next.
Floating Treads. Integrated Lighting. Architectural Detail.
For contemporary homes, floating hardwood stair treads can become one of the defining architectural features in the space.
Sierra Flooring can coordinate custom tread finishing with the surrounding hardwood and incorporate stair-lighting details to create a clean, dramatic finished staircase.
CUSTOM TREADS
Hardwood treads can be coordinated with the colour and character of the surrounding floor.
FLOATING STAIR SYSTEMS
Clean open-tread designs create a lighter, more architectural appearance.
INTEGRATED LIGHTING
LED and stair-lighting details can be incorporated into the tread design for both ambience and visibility.
