In stock now!
PRIMARY DESCRIPTION
Our exclusive Rustic Hickory engineered hardwood flooring line is produced from highly configured live-sawn planks.
So what are live-sawn planks?
Live-sawing, the historic method of sawing a log straight through its diameter, is used to create our Hickory wood floors. This method produces unique grain variations and displays a high level of natural characteristics throughout each plank. Not only does live-sawing yield aesthetically rich results, but it is also the most efficient cutting method, resulting in significantly less waste compared to other techniques.
The hardness of Hickory makes it highly resistant to marring. Boasting a Janka rating of 1820, Hickory is considered the second hardest flooring species in the country. Our rustic Hickory hardwood flooring showcases unique grain patterns, natural mineral streaks, sound knots, and beautiful color variations within each plank.
We meticulously epoxy-fill all voids, mill tongue & grooves on all four sides, and grade it to our 99% usable specifications. Note: our Hickory flooring for sale requires a minimum purchase of 200 square feet.
WHAT IS ENGINEERED FLOORING?
Engineered floors, like our rustic Hickory engineered hardwood flooring, consist of multiple wood sheets bonded together. This cross-ply construction arranges the layers in opposing directions to enhance stability, effectively protecting against moisture issues. The unique arrangement allows the planks to expand and contract in such a way that limits cupping and crowning when exposed to varying humidity levels. Thanks to their versatile design, engineered floors can be installed anywhere in the home—from basements to directly on concrete slabs. They can be stapled, glued, nailed, or even floated over an existing subfloor.

FLOORING DISCLAIMER:
Owner and installer responsibilities
Wood is a natural material that possesses specific unique characteristics. Sustainable Lumber Co. flooring manufactures in accordance with the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship. Standard trade practice allows up to a 5% margin of error for natural imperfections and manufacturing defects.
The following requirements are the responsibility of the floor’s owner, even if the owner is absent at the time of installation:
- Prior to installation, the installer and owner must ensure that the work environment and subfloors meet or even exceed the minimal specifications listed in the Sustainable Lumber Co. installation guide.
- Prior to installation, the installer and owner should conduct a final inspection of the grade, color, manufacturing, and finish quality of boards to ensure that the floor conforms to the purchased product.
- During installation, the installer should not use boards that raise doubts about the grade, color, manufacturing quality, or finish. Sustainable Lumber Co. will replace only defective boards, not exceeding the 5% margin of error allowed by industry standards.
- Sustainable Lumber Co. shall in no case be liable for the installer’s lack of judgment or poor quality of installation.
- Once installed, all boards are considered as having been accepted by the installer and owner, even if the owner is absent at the time of installation.
Exclusions due to certain inherent properties of wood
Wood expands and contracts according to variations in humidity. Even if the flooring is properly installed, narrow gaps and slight distortions can occur. Moreover, exposure to light alters the color of all wood species. Areas covered with area rugs, furniture, construction paper, and any other light-blocking objects will result in color variations.
