Green Touch Floors Touch Maple Engineered Hardwood

The reason engineered hardwood exists is simple. Concrete slabs, basements, and radiant heat will destroy a solid floor, and engineered was built to handle all three.

In simple terms: Green Touch Floors Touch Maple is a real-wood floor, a layer of genuine maple bonded to a stable engineered core. It looks and feels like solid hardwood, but the core lets it handle concrete, basements, and humidity that would move a solid plank. We carry it and our own crew installs it.

The wood and the build: It is real maple, a fine, even grain that reads light and clean, at home in contemporary spaces. On the Janka scale Maple runs about 1450, harder than oak and a strong choice for high-traffic rooms. The real advantage is underneath: a dimensionally stable engineered core that stays flat through Ontario's dry winters and humid summers, where a solid plank would cup or gap. Widths run from 5 to 7 1/2 inches, so you can keep it classic or go wide-plank and modern. A handscraped surface gives it a worn, characterful look. It is a Select and Better grade, kept clean and consistent in colour and grain. Colours in the range include Cappuccino, Charcoal, Earth, Natural, and Pigeon.

Installation is in-house and never subcontracted, across the Toronto and Mississauga area up to Barrie and Simcoe County. Engineered board can be glued over a slab, floated, or nailed down, so we assess the subfloor, test for moisture, and pick the right method. Browse our projects or the hardwood installation page.

Decision line: Green Touch Maple is the practical middle ground, real wood with the stability to go over concrete, into basements, and across the seasons.
