Engineered Hardwood Flooring
Our engineered hardwood flooring combines three layers of North American hardwood with StableCor technology for unmatched stability. Available in widths up to 16 inches and lengths up to 20 feet, it resists warping and expansion. The 4.5mm or 6mm face layer ensures durability, while LED-cured finishes provide a low-VOC, easy-maintenance surface that enhances natural wood beauty.
StableCor Technology
StableCor eliminates shrinkage, cupping, and expansion by stabilizing the core layer of our engineered flooring. This proprietary process ensures dimensional stability under extreme conditions like radiant heat or humidity changes. The result is a floor that maintains its integrity and appearance for generations, outperforming solid and standard engineered hardwood options.
Custom Wood Species Selection
Choose from premium species like White Oak, Hickory, Hard Maple, and Walnut, each showcasing unique grain patterns and hues. Our selection includes four gradesRefined, Essence, Legacy, and Heritageto match design preferences, from sleek minimalism to rustic charm. Every plank tells a story, adding character and timeless elegance to any space.
LED-Cured Finishes
Our advanced hard wax oil finishes are cured using LED technology to eliminate VOC emissions. Available in twelve White Oak, six Hickory, and three Walnut treatments, these finishes enhance natural wood textures while providing a resilient, repairable surface. The result is a healthy indoor environment and a floor that retains its beauty with minimal maintenance.
Radiant Heat Installation
Schafer flooring is engineered for installation over radiant heated floors, concrete slabs, and other challenging environments. The StableCor core layer ensures dimensional stability despite temperature fluctuations, making it ideal for seasonal homes, high-rises, and lakefront properties. This versatility guarantees performance in diverse settings without compromising aesthetics.

"Working with Schafer Harwood Flooring was a pleasure. We specifically wanted an all quartered White Oak plank floor in a Select grade. With no hesitation, they milled a custom floor for our home. I would recommend their company, especially for specialty hardwoods in different grades and cuts."

I own Maple Valley Hardwoods. We have been doing high end wood flooring installations & finishing for over 18 years and have used Schafer Hardwoods to supply quality flooring ever since we started out in business. They make a Michigan made product that is very nice. You can't find a more knowledgeable company for your wood flooring needs.

My company, Real Wood Floors, has been a long time client of Schafer Hardwood Flooring Co, because they produce an excellent product, including their V3 3-ply Wide Plank Hardwood Flooring and their sales team is helpful, friendly and efficient. I would recommend Schafer Hardwood Flooring Co for your hardwood flooring needs.
