Are white oak floors expensive?

White oak is traditionally priced higher than red oak at conventional retailers, but direct-to-consumer options like ours make authentic hardwood surprisingly affordable. Our USA-made white oak flooring costs less than $3 per square foot—competitive with premium LVP and laminate options. When you factor in the resale value boost and longevity that real hardwood provides, white oak becomes one of the smartest investments for your home renovation budget.

Is white oak an expensive wood?

White oak lumber commands premium pricing in traditional markets because of its versatility—it's used for flooring, whiskey barrels, and fine furniture. However, buying directly from manufacturers eliminates multiple markups in the supply chain. At wholesale pricing, you're getting the authentic wood you thought was out of reach, making it a practical choice rather than a luxury splurge.

What is so special about white oak?

White oak's closed-cell structure makes it naturally more water-resistant than red oak, while its tight, uniform grain ensures consistent color and stain absorption. This predictability means your installation looks professionally done, with fewer surprises during the process. The wood's exceptional hardness (1360 Janka rating) provides superior scratch and dent resistance for busy households, and its ability to be refinished multiple times means your investment lasts for generations—not just years.
