With proper care and maintenance, timber floors can last for several decades and even longer.
Engineered wood floors have a thinner real wood veneer on top of a plywood base. Their lifespan can range from 20 to 30 years or more, depending on the thickness of the veneer, the quality of construction, and maintenance practices. Some high-quality engineered wood floors can be refinished once or twice during their lifespan while bamboo floors can last for 20 to 25 years or more, depending on the quality of the bamboo, the manufacturing process, and maintenance practices.
The actual lifespan of timber floors depends on factors such as the quality of the materials used, the installation technique, the climate conditions, the level of foot traffic, and the maintenance routine.
