Hello all,

If you could, please, help me identify what kind of hardwood flooring this is, or at least what type of wood it is:

Thats quite a variation wood there. Where are you located? When was it laid?
Any other facts that may help?
I've seen floors with up to eight species mixed in.

Hi Pete! Thank you so much for taking the time to help me!

We're buying a house with this flooring in Minnesota, US. It's in the kitchen and foyer and we want to extend the hardwood into the adjoining dining room. So, we're trying to match it as best as we can without resurfacing.

The house was built in 1989 but we aren't sure if the hardwood is original or not. There was a remodel in the late 90's but we haven't seen permits that far back to know if the floor was replaced.

It's coloration is a nice mix of natural and soft red and green hues. It's pre-finished with a soft shine to it.

That's about all we know about it.

Thanks again!

It is not anything from North America. The builder may know who laid it.
It does not require a permit to lay flooring. Your building department may have records on who the general contractor was who built the house.
