Montreal properties range from older homes to newer condos and commercial spaces. Wood choice should reflect structure, seasonal humidity and daily traffic.
Board width, species and finish affect both appearance and durability. A lighter floor can open a room, while a warmer tone may fit a traditional home better.
Before choosing, look at what is already there: stairs, trim, thresholds and adjacent rooms. A successful installation feels natural across the property.
Key takeaways
- Compare samples in the real light of the room.
- Think about daily maintenance, not only colour.
- Ask whether the wood can be sanded and restored later.
