Although both have positives when it\ncomes to the natural grain and look of the timber you can not deny that a\nrealwood timber product will come out on top every day of the week. Laminates\nare very realistic and have come on leaps and bounds in the last few years to\none of the most popular types of floor people will choose and not only because\nof the price difference but because the quality and finish is so good now. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In saying this when you lay a laminate on the floor beside a\nsemi solid piece of flooring then there can only be one winner in this , the\nnatural grain and colour in the semi solid will stand out a lot more as you\nwill see from the pictures with this post , a nice grain can really transform\nyour floor . This grain can also be found in our Oak and Walnut doors as they\nare a real wood natural veneer on the doors so the colours and grains will vary\nfrom door to door making each door your own unique piece of furniture in your\nhome. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We took this one step further in the showroom and decided to\ndo a feature wall in our Double Smoked Oak semi solid flooring . There is no\nrule to say a floor has to go on the ground and this idea can really make a\ndifference to your room. With the right lighting and added accessories this can\nbe a real focal point of your home. From blonde to wavey to just plain crazy\ngrains you never know what will be on the next plank as you open up the boxes\nof flooring&nbsp; and this is what makes a\nnatural product so beautiful and unique compared to other manufactured\nfinishes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_8026-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-281\" srcset=\"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_8026-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_8026-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/IMG_8026.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption>Smoked Oak Hard Timber Grain<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Its safe to say we have a soft spot here for real timber\nproducts but laminate floors and laminate faced doors are really taking the\nmarket by storm lately due to the quality of finish and the durability of the\nproduct. Colour is also a big factor in this as Grey continues to be the new\nwhite , but if and when this trend changes the old reliable Oak and Walnut floors\nwill still available to change your home forever. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NATURAL TIMBER PRODUCTS AND GRAINS A lot of time in the showroom we get questions about why to choose a real timber over a laminate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":284,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[177,55],"tags":[183,182,179,163,180,181],"class_list":["post-279","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hardwood-or-laminate-flooring","category-solid-engineered-flooring","tag-doorsandfloors","tag-hardwoodflooring","tag-hardwoodfloors","tag-murphylarkin","tag-timberflooring","tag-timbrgrain"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=279"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":283,"href":"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279\/revisions\/283"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/284"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=279"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=279"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/murphylarkin.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=279"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
