Handscraped versus smooth Brazilian Cherry hardwood floors
Comments (2)I too am in the same boat. My house has a territorial style exterior but the interior is transitional. My ongoing kitchen remodel will result in things leaning towards the contemporary side. Part of the project is to replace the tile flooring in the kitchen and main hallway off of it and the carpet in the family room (which is off of the kitchen), dining room, and living room all with wood. I am debating whether to put in a handscraped as well. My designer thinks it may be a bit on the fad side and is recommending more of a traditional wood flooring since he feels it will be "timeless". My home is in an upscale neighborhood so I definitely want to put in something that is applicable and will keep the value in line....See MoreBrazilian Cherry Hardwood Floor Discoloration
Comments (4)Yep, just expose the light patch to as much sun as possible, and it will catch up eventually. I moved some furniture around on my Brazilian Cherry floors earlier this year, and the light patches are now not even noticeable....See Moredoes anyone have brazilian cherry hardwood floors?
Comments (17)Chinchette, thank you for your input. I sure hope my floors become more red. I really was in love with the Mirage samples but their price was more than the BR-111 so I went with the company that I though was good but more in my budget. I am trying to choose a painter and then I will install the floors and take pictures....See More5' or 3.25' wide Brazilian Cherry Engineered Hardwood floors?
Comments (9)ci_lantro, thank you for your reply. Two of my rooms are combined as one big room with a half of a wall high and a half of a wall long so when you enter the room there appears to be a very long hall way (created from putty file cabinets against the wall and my L-Shape desk and other cabinets in the room and desks. So the longer boards may look great here but the other room is small so maybe the shorter boards would look better there. farmhousebound, thank you for letting me know that you chose the slimmer boards for the vintage look and for your high humidity. I get high humidity most summers but this summer there was not much of a problem due to my new air conditioner unit. I usually have to run my dehumidifier all the time in the summer but my new central air conditioner solved that problem. But I was told by the installers that the 3.25" is more stable if the humidity changes and is better if they are not sure how level my cement floor is under this carpet. Thanks again for replying. I will wait for others to reply. I would love a close up of 5" wide boards to see what the Brazilian Cherry grain will look like since most of my samples are 3.25" wide so the grain is fine and cut off but pretty like this also....See More- 4 years ago
