Brushed wood texture has become a popular option for homeowners looking for one-of-a-kind wood flooring. Brushed wood flooring evokes the look of floors that have been gently worn down by generations of foot traffic, where the softer grains wear away and denser grains are left standing tall. With brushed wood texture, new floorboards take on the character and charm of floors that have been walked on and lived on for several lifetimes, adding a sense of warmth and heritage to the room.
At Carlisle Wide Plank Floors, our artisan woodworkers use specially designed brushes to “unsmooth” new floorboards, providing an old wood floor texture that’s infused with a sense of craftsmanship and history. Developed by Carlisle, this proprietary technique gives floorboards a soft and gently worn texture with very fine brush markings. Our brushed wood texture can be combined with any other surface treatment to produce dramatic results.
What is brushed wood texture?
Brushed wood texture is a treatment for texturing or distressing hardwood floors to give new floorboards a more aged appearance. In this technique, Carlisle craftsmen brush each board four separate times with a uniquely developed multi-layer wood texture brush that wears away only the softer grain, perfectly reproducing the look of a floor worn down by time and foot traffic.
What are the benefits of brushed wood texture?
A brushed floor makes new floorboards look like floors that have been lived on for generations, adding character and sense of heritage to the floors in any room.
Can floors with brushed wood texture be prefinished?
Yes. At Carlisle, we can prefinished your floors in the ideal conditions of our workshop. When you receive your floor, it will have already been sanded, textured, stained and sealed, enabling a faster installation and sparing you the hassle of having your floor finished on site.
Can engineered floors be treated with brushed wood texture?
Yes. Carlisle offers a variety of options for textured engineered wood flooring. Engineered floors are made with multiple layers of backing material and topped with a thick veneer of hardwood to create a floorboard that is more resistant to temperature changes and high levels of humidity or moisture. Texturing can provide engineered floors with the same look and character as textured solid wood floors.
At Carlisle, in addition to brushed wood texture, we offer a variety of other treatments that can re-create the imperfections and boards that were milled more than a century ago and that have been lived on for several generations.
