Hand-scraped Hardwood Flooring

Hand scraped hardwood floors are available in numerous hardwood species, appearances in the manner they are manufactured, different stains that are used, up to what finish gloss level you may prefer.

Hand-scraped hardwood flooring (also called hand sculptured) has become a popular choice among homeowners wanting hardwood with the look of an old reclaimed wood floor, but with today's tough, urethane finishes. These hardwood floors look stunning with a lot of rich character markings, yet need low maintenance.

Hand Scraped vs. Distressed?

Types

• Time Worn Aged
  
  Time worn aged hardwood offers characteristics of a hardwood floor that has seen distressing caused by age. An often noted characteristic is dark colored staining to highlight the grain in the hardwood species itself. In some cases mild contouring of the hardwood is also seen along with character markings.

• Wire Brushed
  
  Wire brushing brings out the grain in the hardwood. The sapwood is removed by brushing, causing a highlighted grainy effect that is not only visible on close inspection, but obvious feel as well.

• Antique
  
  An antiqued look typically calls for using a lower grade of hardwood applied with darker colored stains that in turn bring out the highlights of the grain. Lower grade doesn't demonstrate lower quality, but instead more color variation and character.

• Hand Sculpted
  
  Hand sculpted is a term used for flooring that has a smoother distressed appearance. Scraping or sculpting is often smooth and more uniform in appearance. .
