Bruce Flooring Signature Maple Solid Hardwood

Real wood ages into a room. A solid floor can be sanded and recoloured years later, so the floor you buy now is not the floor you are stuck with.

In simple terms: Bruce Flooring Signature Maple is genuine solid hardwood for the dry, above-grade rooms of a home. Because it is real wood all the way through, it is nailed down and can be refinished rather than replaced. Squarefoot Flooring carries it and our own crew installs it.

The wood itself: It is maple, a fine, consistent grain that reads light and clean, suited to contemporary rooms. On the Janka hardness scale Maple sits around 1450, well above oak, so it resists dents and traffic very well. At a full 3/4 inch, it is solid wood all the way through, which means it can be sanded back and refinished several times over its life and recoloured if your style changes, a floor that can outlast the rest of the room. It comes in a 4 inch width.

Decision line: Signature Maple is a sensible all-rounder, hard enough for everyday main-floor traffic without paying for an exotic.

One honest note: as real wood, it moves with humidity, so it is not for below-grade basements, full bathrooms, or most radiant heat. It acclimates to your home before installation, and some seasonal movement through an Ontario winter is normal. For a basement or slab, engineered hardwood is the better build.

Solid hardwood lives or dies on the install. Our own team nails Bruce Flooring Signature Maple down across the Toronto and Mississauga area, Barrie, and Simcoe County, never subcontracted, and we acclimate the wood, check subfloor moisture, and finish the trim and any matching stairs. See our hardwood installation page.

A small sample never tells the whole story with real wood. See Signature Maple at our Mississauga or Barrie store, contact us for current stock, and compare materials on the hardwood vs vinyl guide. For the full Bruce Flooring range, see our Bruce Flooring page.
