Twelve Oaks Flooring Crafters Mission Maple Engineered Hardwood

There is a lot of marketing noise around engineered hardwood, but it comes down to two things that matter: how thick the real-wood layer is, and how stable the core is.

In simple terms: Twelve Oaks Flooring Crafters Mission Maple is engineered hardwood, which means a real maple surface over a cross-layered core. You get the look of solid wood with the stability to put it over concrete or in a basement. Squarefoot Flooring stocks it and installs it in-house.

It is real maple, a fine, even grain that reads light and clean, at home in contemporary spaces. Maple sits around 1450 on the Janka hardness scale, well above the red oak benchmark, so it shrugs off busy traffic. The core is the quiet workhorse here. A multi-ply core resists the expansion and contraction that makes solid wood cup, gap, or lift. Colours in the range include Dark Brown, and Medium Grey.

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

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.

Wood reads differently across a full floor than in a sample chip, so it is worth seeing Crafters Mission Maple under room light at either showroom.
