It’s not easy to find the perfect engineered hardwood flooring for Vancouver’s climate and style preferences.

With the high humidity, year-round rain and salty ocean air, we at Treeco (distributors of Timeless wood flooring) spent years struggling to find reliable wood floors from imported brands. Why? Because it can often take a few years for possible issues to appear: top layers that curl, planks that warp, and boards that bow up at highest humidity levels. That’s why we decided to design an engineered hardwood brand ourselves. One that could really handle Vancouver’s climate and needs over the long haul. We call it Timeless. Here’s what’s unique about it:

• Sliced or dry-sawn lamella. The lamella is the top wood layer of wood floors which shows its distinct wood species. Most non-Canadian brands use peeled/applied top layers, which warp when conditions quickly go from humid to dry. Ours are dry-sawn and pre-dried to only 6% moisture content, versus the average of 8 – 9%.

• Wider humidity warranty. Our process means we can cover a wider warranty range of 25% - 60% humidity. Most brands only cover 30 – 55%. Timeless also carries a 25-year finish warranty, and is Floorscore® certified to meet sustainable building standards.

• West-coast style. Other than just the technical side, we also pride ourselves on having style selections that personify the lower mainland’s local style. How? We use west-coast interior designers to select and update our looks every year.
