Why engineered Green Mountain suits Quebec homes.
Green Mountain puts Appalachian oak on an engineered core. The result stays stable where solid wood cannot go: basements, concrete slabs and radiant heat. You keep the grain and warmth of oak without the risk of cupping.
In Quebec, engineered opens up rooms that solid closes off. Green Mountain installs glued or floating depending on the subfloor, and likes the room kept between 35 and 55% humidity, like any real wood.
“Engineered hardwood gives you real wood with the stability our climate demands,” says Sefi Dollinger, Owner of Planchers Bellefeuille, serving Quebec homeowners since 1983.
What it takes for an engineered floor to last in Quebec.
Engineered Green Mountain can be installed several ways: glued to a concrete slab, stapled to a wood subfloor, or floated with underlay. Unlike solid wood, it accepts concrete and low-temperature radiant heat. Always leave an expansion gap around the perimeter.
Target indoor humidity: 40-60%. Engineered wood tolerates swings better than solid, but a stable level keeps the joints tight all year.
