Oak Hardwood for Tampa, Clearwater, Westchase, Palm Harbor, Hyde Park, Oldsmar & the Greater Tampa Bay area

Oak hardwood is by far the most popular choice in wood floor design, not only for its exceptional durability but also for its wide range of colors and styles. Homeowners and business owners in Tampa, Clearwater, Westchase, Palm Harbor, Hyde Park, and Oldsmar are continually discovering that oak hardwood from Trico Flooring is the one material that can create warmth and elegance in any den, living room, foyer, lobby, office, or waiting room.

There are two types of oak available to fit your hardwood flooring needs: red oak and white oak. Although both varieties convey beauty and sophistication, there are important stylistic differences that you should keep in mind.  The in-house Trico design specialists can help you decide which type of solid hardwood would best fit the overall décor of your home or office.

Red oak hardwood is characterized by the following:

• Hues can range from red to brown to pinkish gray
• Planks tend to have shorter rays and fewer burls
• Red oak is slightly more porous than white oak
• Ideal with decorative styles such as Victorian, Tuscan, Western, Rustic, Traditional, or Romantic

White oak hardwood is characterized by the following:

• Hues can range from nearly white to light brown to gray
• Planks tend to have longer rays and more burls
• White oak is slightly denser than red oak
• Ideal with decorative styles such as French Country, Beach Cottage, Mediterranean,  Spanish, or Contemporary
