Engineered Oak Flooring: The Ideal Choice for NZ Homes

Updated: Dec 2


Why Engineered Oak Flooring Reigns Supreme in NZ

When it comes to choosing the perfect flooring for your New Zealand home, engineered oak flooring stands out as an exceptional choice. Let's delve into the reasons why:


1. Durability and Stability


  • Climate Resilience: New Zealand's diverse climate can be tough on flooring. Engineered oak, with Marchand's clever cross threading of ply construction, is highly resistant to changes in humidity and temperature.

  • Reduced Expansion and Contraction: This stability minimizes the risk of warping, cracking, and gaps, ensuring your floors remain beautiful for years to come and you do not need to install expansion gaps into your flooring areas.


2. Stunning Aesthetics

  • Natural Beauty: Engineered oak flooring captures the timeless elegance of solid wood, with its rich grain patterns and warm tones, however you don't have the higher cost of hardwood.

  • Versatile Styles: From classic to contemporary, engineered oak offers a wide range of finishes, colors, and textures to suit any interior design preference.


3. Easy Installation and Maintenance

  • Quick and Efficient: Engineered oak planks are pre-finished, making installation a breeze.

  • Low-Maintenance: Regular sweeping and occasional mopping are all that's needed to keep your floors looking their best.


4. Eco-Friendly Choice

  • Reduced Waste: The efficient manufacturing process of engineered wood reduces waste compared to solid wood flooring.


5. Cost-Effective Solution

  • Affordability: Engineered oak offers a more affordable option compared to solid wood, without compromising on quality or style. For very cost conscious home owners there are cheaper man-made options in the market.

  • Long-Term Value: With proper care, Marchand's engineered oak flooring can last for decades due to its thickness and 6mm Oak, providing excellent value for your investment.
