About Our Floors
Flooring made for a lifetime
We’re rooted in Scandinavian sustainability practices. That means building floors that last 100 years, certified against the toughest environmental and indoor air quality restrictions in the world.
Against the grain
Each layer of our flooring is positioned opposite to one another to maximize dimensional stability. That paired with our unique locking system, your floor will look great for years to come.
An investment with real returns
Unlike vinyl or other floor coverings, wood floors can increase the value of a home by as much as 2.5%, making this an investment with a clear ROI.
Family proof & pet friendly
In normal family conditions our floors will perform wonderfully, but all floors will scratch and dent. If you have a heavy wear and tear household choose a more rustic floor—they hide scratches better.
You get what you pay for
Wood floors are an investment. While you can save in the short-term by going with others, Stuga floors are steps ahead in beauty and quality. We only use premium raw materials, milling full-length boards from sustainably harvested logs.
No random lengths. Ever.
Enjoy a full plank look and feel throughout your home.
Install method: your choice
We like to give you options. Our floors are versatile floors and wonderfully easy to work with no matter the application.
Staple/Nail
Preferred by most contractors, stapling or nailing is ideal for creating seamless transitions throughout your home.
Glue
Bring your artistic vision to life by gluing down your floors. We recommend low or no-VOC glues with a built-in vapor barrier like Bona R851 or Bostik Greenforce.
Float
Often used in simpler installations that require few transitions to other flooring materials, this is the ultimate Scandi way to install our innovative locking floors. You can float on any level of your home, including basements.

Budget smarter
There’s more to floors than just the flooring. To set a comprehensive budget, you may need to account for other materials like underlayment, transition pieces, or stair nosings depending on the installation.
Why our flooring?
Unmatched construction
You won't find a better floor. The three-layer construction, an ingenious European design, is the most stable wood floor in the world.
01
White Oak
Beautiful and slower-growing. Most of our floors are made thick enough for two sandings.
02
Pine
Strips of fast-growing, sustainable, and porous pine that expand and contract individually, protecting the top layer of wood.
03
Spruce
Fast-growing and sustainable, as well as porous and moisture absorbent.

Flooring FAQ's
We try not to pick favorites, and there is no "best" way. It all depends on the project. Learn the pros and cons of each method here.
Yes, in addition to being floated, most of our floors can be stapled and/or glued down. The exceptions are the Rebels (Giddy Up, High Five, Cartwheel, Kickflip, Hang Ten, & Half Pipe), Zig Zag, Popup, and All Aboard, which can only be floated or glued. Sisu, Old Town, and Archipelago can only be glued down.
Yes! You can DIY, hire a local flooring contractor or even have your GC handle installation without jeopardizing your warranty. We have a select group of preferred installers around the US that we know and trust. You can find a list with their contact info here. If we don't have a preferred installer in your area, don't worry. You can find talented installers via the NWFA's directory.
Absolutely! Radiant heat is very common in Scandinavia and our floors have been lived on over radiant heat systems for years.
No. Our material comes packaged in plastic at a specific moisture content so you can just open up the cartons and begin installing right away. If you wish to wait a few days or weeks to install after the flooring has arrived, simply leave the flooring in its package.
Yes, for full warranty coverage specifically against the possibility of moisture damaging your floor from below, our approved underlayments are required (with the exception of glue down installations). Our Floating Underlayment is approved for floating installation only while our Nature All-In-One Underlayment is approved for both floating or staple down installations. For glue down installations, using a glue with a built-in moisture barrier is an acceptable alternative to underlayment.
