Why did you pick Sheoga Hardwood Flooring?
We selected Sheoga Hardwood Flooring based on the recommendation of our contractor, Dollak Construction. They assured us that Sheoga offers the highest quality solid and engineered hardwood flooring available and we put our total trust and faith in them. When our flooring arrived, we were truly amazed by its quality and craftsmanship — it exceeded our expectations and we couldn’t be more pleased – we are over the moon happy with our floors!
Why did you pick hickory character & herringbone?
Hickory is one of the hardest and most durable domestic hardwoods, making it an excellent choice for high-traffic areas and pets. We have a 70lbs doodle named Goose, and we needed strong (yet BEAUTIFUL!) wood floors to keep up with those big paws!! When laid in a herringbone pattern, hickory’s naturally varied grain and color tones create a striking visual effect that combines a timeless elegance with bold character, which is exactly what we were looking for.
What do you love most about your floors?
The dynamic pattern of herringbone in character hickory not only enhanced the aesthetic appeal of our home, but also added a sense of movement and dimension to the space. Our floors are so unique and it makes our home totally standout from the norm, and that just wouldn’t be the case without Sheoga!
