Birch Hardwood flooring can be some of the most beautiful in style and color. Depending on the age of the birch, you can get a dark tan color or a light creamy color with young birch flooring wood. If wood taken from the center of the tree is used, it can be a light golden brown color.
Yellow birch can also be used for flooring, but is more commonly used for building projects. It is cherry like color, and has been used in beams and other types of specialized walls.
The red birch is probably the choice for flooring professionals however. The reason birch is loved by many is the mix of exotic yellow and reds which come together in a unique way.
One of the greatest things about birch wood used in flooring is that it is very hardy. It is 2% softer than Northern red oak, but is hard and very durable. It is also easy to sand for a smooth feel, and has very few if any issues when it comes to a clean finish.
In conclusion, birch hardwood flooring has a lot of potential in any home. It is readily available, and is priced moderately for just about any American home.
