Comments about R.L. Colston 3/4" x 3-1/4" White Oak:
Boards nice and straight. Very smooth surface so sanding will be minimal. However, many boards suffered severe sniping / burning either from surface planer or roll sander requiring more culling,cutting and waste than would have liked.
Comments about R.L. Colston 3/4" x 3-1/4" White Oak:
If you're buying from here, you will need to either get at least 100 Sq ft as waste or deal with a mixture of bad wood. There were so much holes and cracks in them. I had to get an extra 5p sq ft at another place. I do not recommend here. It was good years ago, but no longer on my list for my floor needs.

Comments about R.L. Colston 3/4" x 3-1/4" White Oak:
We are re-doing a 1960 rancher and this product was simply meant to be in it. Put it on a concrete slab with poly down first and then Elastilon. A great investment, should last 100 years! Great for kids and pets because it is so durable and cleanable. Worth the investment -- has added great value to the home. Looks old school but a lot of the time the old school stuff is still the best.

This wood floor was perfect. I had less than 5% waste and the variation of color was exactly what I expected. The sales team was also a great pleasure to work with.

How can I tell if this floor can be installed on a cement subfloor. We are installing whole house (upstairs and down), but down is cement subfloor.1 answer

The only way to install this solid 3/4" flooring is to use our Elastilon underlayment product.Q:
is this a suitable product for a radiant floor? If not what is1 answer
A:
I would not recommend this product over your radiant heat system. You would have better results if you use a quarter sawn solid wood flooring or an Engineered, or Laminate floor. For information about our quarter sawn wood floor options please contact our sales department at 1-800-HARDWOOD.Q:
what do you most recomend prefinished or unfinished hardwood floor1 answer
A:
Both have advantages; a pre-finished floor can be installed and then walked on as soon as it is layed, where as a sand & finished floor will take up a few days. The advantage of a sanded floor is that you have more stain color choices and different gloss levels to choose from.Q:
what is the difference between unfinished and prefinished. would you have to sand and put shine coat on unfinished.1 answer
A:
Unfinished flooring is sanded and finished on site at the customers home. Prefinished flooring is sanded and finished in a factory.
