Buyer information
Why European white oak
Wide planks are most of the appeal: fewer seams across a room reads as calmer and more spacious. European white oak is commonly available in:
- 7.5″ · 8″ · 9.5″ · 10″ · 10.25″ · 13″ wide planks
Custom widths can be manufactured for a specific project. Ask us before you commit to a width — in smaller rooms a very wide plank can work against you, and we would rather say so up front.
Wide plank white oak flooring
Our wide plank white oak runs from 7.5″ to 13″, with boards up to 10 feet long on select products. In smaller rooms a very wide plank can work against you, so ask us before you commit.
Herringbone white oak
Prime and character grade are both available in herringbone. Example project: Westlake Village herringbone remodel.
Colors and custom stains
The range runs from light white and cream tones through warm natural browns to deep, near-black modern finishes. Custom stains are available, and we can match to a cabinet door or trim sample — bring one into the showroom and we will hold it against the real boards under real light. Colors photograph unreliably; this is the part worth doing in person.
Prime grade or character grade
Prime grade boards have few knots and an even, clean look that suits modern interiors. Character grade shows more knots and natural variation for a warmer, rustic feel. Both are available in wide planks and in herringbone. Call ahead and we’ll check which samples of each we have in the showroom, so you can compare them side by side.
Thickness, wear layer and board length
Construction matters as much as color, and it is where cheap flooring gives itself away.
- Overall thickness: 1/2″, 9/16″, 5/8″ and 3/4″ profiles
- Wear layer: 2mm, 4mm and 6mm options — the wear layer determines whether the floor can be refinished later, and how many times
- Board length: up to 6, 7, 8 and even 10 foot boards for a more seamless look
A thicker wear layer costs more up front and is usually the better long-term buy, because it is what lets you refinish rather than replace in ten years.

Planning white oak across a large home
In a big house, the floor is one of the few things that runs through every room, so we plan it as one surface rather than room by room.
- One floor, many rooms. Running the same plank through the entry, living areas and hallways, with as few thresholds as possible, is what makes wide white oak look calm. We decide the plank direction for the whole level first, then plan where a long run needs an expansion break or a transition.
- Stairs and landings. Matching stair treads, risers and nosing carry the floor between levels, so we choose the width and finish with the stairs in mind. See our hardwood stair installation.
- Cabinets and countertops. Bring a cabinet door, a countertop sample or a trim piece to the showroom and we’ll hold it against the floor samples.

Construction
Engineered vs solid for Los Angeles homes
Most Los Angeles and San Fernando Valley homes sit on concrete slabs. Engineered European white oak is built for that: a real oak wear layer over a stable core that handles glue-down over slab when moisture checks pass. Solid hardwood still belongs over raised wood subfloors in the right house. We’ll tell you which construction fits your subfloor after a free in-home measure — we won’t sell you a product that doesn’t belong on your slab.
That is how a recent job went in Encino: about 600 square feet of tile and carpet came out, the slab was ground and leveled, and engineered hardwood was glued down in two days. See more about hardwood flooring in Encino.
Installation
Installation
We install what we sell. Our hardwood installation work covers:
- Floor demolition and haul-away
- Subfloor preparation and moisture checks
- Glue-down installation over concrete slabs and nail-down installation over raised wood subfloors
- Custom staircases with matching treads, risers and stair nosing
- Complete flooring remodels
We plan the stairs and transitions with the floor, which matters in neighborhoods that climb into the hills, such as Tarzana, where we install from Victory Boulevard to the streets south of Ventura.
We also carry solid hardwood, herringbone patterns and engineered hardwood in other species. Browse the full range on our hardwood flooring category page.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What widths do you carry?
Commonly 7.5″, 8″, 9.5″, 10″, 10.25″ and 13″. Custom widths can be made for a project.
What wear layer should I choose?
We carry 2 mm, 4 mm and 6 mm. A thicker wear layer costs more up front but lets you refinish rather than replace later.
Prime or character grade?
Prime has few knots and a clean, even look. Character shows more knots and natural variation. Both come in wide plank and herringbone.
Can I buy material only?
Yes. You can buy the material on its own, or have our crews install it. Installation is quoted after a free in-home measure.
Can you match my cabinets?
Custom stains are available. Bring a cabinet door or trim sample to the showroom.
Is engineered European white oak OK on a concrete slab?
Yes, when moisture checks pass. Most Los Angeles slab homes get glue-down engineered white oak. Solid hardwood is for the right raised-wood jobs. We confirm the right construction during your free in-home estimate.
Can I compare grades and colors in person?
Yes. You can compare grades and colors at our Woodland Hills showroom at 21030 Victory Blvd.
Is European white oak expensive?
It depends on width, grade, wear layer, construction and finish, so prices vary widely from product to product. Our current European white oak specials start at $3.49/sq ft, material only, *While Supplies Last*. Installation is quoted separately after a free in-home measure.
What’s the difference between white oak and European white oak?
“White oak” in the U.S. usually means American white oak (Quercus alba). European oak is a different species, mainly Quercus robur, grown in Europe. European oak is often sold in wider, longer planks with a softer, more even tone, while American white oak tends to show more pronounced grain. Both are durable hardwoods; the best way to choose is to compare boards side by side in our showroom.
Is European white oak good flooring?
It is a hard, stable, popular hardwood that takes stains well, which is why it suits wide planks and lighter modern colors. As with any wood floor, protect it from standing water, grit and furniture scratches. In engineered form it can go on most Los Angeles concrete slabs when moisture checks pass.
Is European oak more expensive than American oak?
Often, especially in wide planks and higher grades, but not always — price depends on the specific product. Call (818) 963-0878 for current pricing on the floors you like.
2mm or 4mm wear layer: what’s the difference?
The wear layer is the real oak on top of an engineered board. A thicker layer leaves more wood to sand, so it generally allows more refinishing over the floor’s life. Our current specials have a 2mm wear layer; we also carry 4mm and 6mm options.
