Brazilian Cherry Engineered Prefinished 3 1/4" Flooring

Engineered construction unlocks Brazilian Cherry's beauty for installations where solid hardwood cannot go. Our 3/8" engineered plank features a genuine Jatoba wear layer bonded to a dimensionally stable plywood core, allowing direct installation over concrete slabs, below-grade basements, and radiant heating systems. The cross-ply construction resists the expansion and contraction that challenges solid wood in variable environments. This 3 1/4" width matches our most popular solid option, making it easy to transition between rooms with different subfloor types. The same 7-coat aluminum oxide finish delivers identical appearance and durability to our solid collection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can engineered flooring be refinished?

Yes, once. The 2mm wear layer can be lightly sanded. For longevity, choose recoating over full sanding when possible.

Is engineered less durable than solid?

The surface durability is identical—same wood, same finish. The difference is in thickness and refinishing potential, not daily wear resistance.
