What hardwood species are native to my area?

One of the most satisfying things about hardwood flooring is choosing eco-friendly products that are reasonably sourced. That is why finding solid hardwood flooring that is native to your specific geographic area is essential, and we are going to tell you more about what’s available to you.

Wood flooring that fits your needs

The Bigleaf Maple is a popular hardwood in the Pacific Northwest, offering a floor covering best suited for the contemporary style, with a subtle grain and a light, clean surface. It is harder than oak but not as stable.

Oregon Ash is also native to the area and is used to create an exceptionally durable, hard floor covering with a looping grain that looks amazing in any setting. Used in areas that get light to moderate traffic, it resists dents, stains, and scratches very well.

Oak is known to be one of the best options for residential flooring, and the Oregon White Oak is a known resident in Washington state. Not only is this an excellent choice for heavy traffic, but it also offers a light tone, rich grain, and fantastic texture that looks great in every room.
