About Hickory Wood for Hardwood Floors

Hickory is an excellent choice for hardwood floors.  It is a material prized by generations of cabinetmakers because of its beautiful patterning and tensile strength.  Its yellow and brown heartwood pattern makes a bold statement that complements many interior designs and floor plans. For a historic look, hickory hardwood floors come in a tung oil finish.  The tensile strength of hickory wood is similar to that of steel which means that this wood is meant to wear well and last for decades.
