Transform Your Home with Elegant Engineered Plank Flooring from Southland Wholesale Flooring in Kinston, NC

Elevate Your Space with Engineered Plank Flooring

If you're looking to combine the timeless beauty of hardwood with modern-day durability, engineered plank flooring is the perfect solution. Homeowners and DIY enthusiasts alike love its warm, natural look, versatile style, and long-lasting performance—making it a smart, stylish choice for any home.

What Is Engineered Plank Flooring?

Engineered plank flooring is crafted with multiple layers of real wood and plywood, offering the authentic look and feel of traditional hardwood with enhanced stability. The top layer is genuine hardwood—oak, maple, hickory, or walnut—while the core layers provide extra strength and resistance to moisture and temperature changes.

It comes in a range of finishes: matte, semi-gloss, hand-scraped, wire-brushed, or smooth. You’ll also find a wide variety of colors and textures—from soft neutrals and airy grays to rich, dark stains that add drama and depth.

Whether you prefer a rustic farmhouse charm or a sleek contemporary vibe, engineered plank flooring adds an inviting warmth underfoot and a sophisticated touch to your interiors.

Top Features & Benefits of Engineered Plank Flooring

• Durability You Can Trust
  Built with a multi-layer core, engineered planks resist warping, shrinking, and expanding—ideal for fluctuating temperatures and humidity levels.
• Versatile Style Options
  Available in a wide range of species, stains, and surface textures, it blends beautifully into modern, transitional, or classic design themes.
• Easy Maintenance
  Just a simple sweep and occasional damp mop keeps your floors looking beautiful for years.
• Smart for Your Budget
  Engineered planks give you the look of premium hardwood at a more affordable price—without compromising style or quality.
• Quick and Flexible Installation
  Choose from floating, glue-down, or nail-down methods to suit your space and skill level—perfect for DIY projects!
• Eco-Friendly Construction
  Uses fewer slow-growing hardwoods and often includes recycled content, making it a more sustainable flooring choice.

What Sets Engineered Plank Flooring Apart?

Unlike solid hardwood, engineered plank flooring can be installed in areas where moisture is a concern—such as basements or over radiant heating systems. Many options come with click-lock edges for easy, mess-free installation. Advances in finishing technology also mean better resistance to scratches, dents, and fading. Some brands even offer waterproof or water-resistant collections, giving you added peace of mind.
