The Edge Completes the Look

HiDef Color Fusion Technology

What makes this laminate different?

It’s HiDef Color Fusion Technology. Unlike traditional laminate flooring this laminate doesn’t use a paper layer picture to create a wood look.

HiDef Color Fusion Technology allows for the color to fuse directly onto an eco-friendly substrate resulting in a floor with unparalleled clarity, brilliance and depth of color. This also allows for a high shade variation, so your floor will have unique planks creating very few repeats in your room.

 Hardwood Flooring

Pre-Finished Hardwood Floor Advantages

When it comes to installing wood flooring, homeowners have two primary choices: pre-finished or unfinished hardwood flooring. Portland residents remodeling their homes are increasingly choosing pre-finished wood flooring, which means the finish is applied at the factory instead of after installation.

The team at Area Floors looks forward to helping you with all your flooring needs. Visit us at either our Tigard or Portland store locations for quality service, expert advice and great prices.
Sincerely,
