Color Plank Collection in Natural Red Oak

SOMERSET HARDWOOD FLOORING: Color Plank Collection in Natural Red Oak -

The variation of colors and patterns in a living tree is individual like snowflakes, never repeated. Naturally occurring wood characteristics like knots, streaks, grain variations, and color make each hardwood floor unique. Also, your floor's color will change over time and with exposure to ultraviolet/natural light. As a result of these natural characteristics, your newly installed Somerset Hardwood Flooring will always be unique. Featured here is Somerset Hardwood Flooring's Color Plank Collection in Natural Red Oak, but available in six more shades to match any home's décor.
