Mastering Home Design: Why LM® Engineered Hardwood is the Ultimate Specification

Choosing the right flooring is perhaps the most significant decision a homeowner can make. It serves as the foundation for your interior design, influencing the ambiance of every room while directly impacting your family's comfort and the long-term market value of your property. LM® Engineered Hardwood Flooring has emerged as a premier choice for those who refuse to compromise between the timeless soul of real wood and the structural demands of modern living.

Why Choose LM® Engineered Hardwood Flooring?

Quality Craftsmanship: Founded in 2001, LM Flooring has built its reputation on "furniture-grade" precision. Each plank is a masterpiece of Italian-inspired finishing and advanced wood milling. Unlike solid wood, LM’s engineered planks utilize a multi-ply construction—a series of high-quality wood layers bonded together in a cross-grain configuration. This creates a floor that is stronger and more dimensionally stable, resisting the natural tendency of wood to expand or contract.

Durability for Active Lifestyles: Life happens on your floors. Whether it’s the frantic paws of a family pet or the heavy foot traffic of a holiday gathering, LM Flooring is built to endure. The secret lies in their Maximus™ Aluminum Oxide Finish. This exclusive, high-performance coating is infused with ceramic particles, creating a rugged barrier that significantly reduces scratches, scuffs, and daily wear and tear.

Eco-Friendly Excellence: For the environmentally conscious homeowner, LM Flooring is a leader in the "Green Movement." Engineered wood is inherently more sustainable than solid wood because it yields up to three times more flooring per tree harvested. LM Flooring goes further by sourcing materials from rapidly renewable resources and ensuring all products are FloorScore® Certified, meeting strict standards for indoor air quality and low VOC emissions.

Style & Selection

Versatile Design Choices: From the wide-plank sophistication of European White Oak to the rustic warmth of hand-scraped Hickory, LM offers over 200 distinct products. Their aesthetic range covers every trend:

• Traditional: Classic narrow strips with smooth, satin finishes.
• Contemporary: Extra-wide planks (over 7 inches) in "greige" and light-washed tones.
• Artisan: Authentic hand-scraped and wire-brushed textures that add tactile depth.

Innovative Technology: LM Flooring stands out through trademarked innovations designed to solve real-world problems:

• Cleantivity™ Antimicrobial Technology: A factory-applied coating that inhibits the growth of bacteria, mold, and mildew, keeping your home healthier.
• Waterproof Technology: Select collections feature 6-sided factory-sealed protection, guarding your investment against topical moisture and spills.
• Sculpted Dimension™: A unique face treatment that accentuates the wood's natural grain for a truly custom-built look.

The Perfect Fit for Active Families

Family-Friendly Maintenance: LM floors are designed for ease. Unlike carpets that trap allergens, these hardwood surfaces are simple to keep pristine with regular sweeping and occasional damp mopping. The protective Maximus™ finish ensures that even a busy household won't dull the floor’s luster over time.

Enhancing Home Value: Real estate experts agree that genuine hardwood is one of the top features homebuyers look for. By installing LM Engineered Hardwood, you aren't just decorating; you are investing. Because these floors can often be refinished and last for 20–30 years, they offer a far greater return on investment (ROI) than synthetic alternatives like laminate or vinyl.
