Are you considering cherry flooring for your home? We offer a number of options in both American cherry and Brazilian cherry (or Jatoba) flooring to enhance the beauty and value of your home or property.
American cherry flooring
American cherry wood flooring is characterized by its rich reddish-brown color, sleek texture, and circular grain patterns. With a Janka hardness rating of 950, American cherry wood is softer than other wood species. However, its natural warmth and unusual graining make it a consistently popular choice with homeowners and decorators. Wider planks of 5 inches and wider tend to better showcase the beauty of American cherry. The smooth texture stains well, and a medium or dark stain is often applied to highlight the autumnal hues and to achieve an even, toned finish. The colors of American cherry flooring tend to darken and deepen over time.
Brazilian cherry flooring/Jatoba
Brazilian cherry is a popular exotic wood species which ranges in color from salmon pink to vibrant red, with orange-yellow highlights and darker accent stripes. Over time, the highlights of Brazilian cherry fade, and the colors become richer and more uniform.
Brazilian cherry looks similar to mahogany, and like mahogany, it is an extremely hard wood, rating 2820 on the Janka hardness scale. This superior durability makes Brazilian cherry an ideal choice for active households and areas with heavy foot traffic.
Brazilian cherry wood comes from the Jatoba tree, which grows in the rain forests of South America, Central American, and the Caribbean. At A & N Flooring, we support sustainable forest management and sustainable Brazilian cherry flooring products.
Both American cherry and Brazilian cherry flooring comes in both solid wood and engineered wood varieties. The engineered products are designed to fortify and stabilize your floor, so it is less affected by the temperature and humidity changes which can cause shrinking and expanding. Engineered flooring is also an option for basements, as it can be installed below ground level.

Do you need hickory flooring in Brooklyn? Hickory is an extremely hard and damage-resistant wood, with a wide range of colors and a unique, beautiful grain pattern.
Superior hardness
Hickory is the hardest of the North American hardwoods. It has a Janka hardness rating of 1820, making it much harder than other popular woods such as oak, maple, and pine. If you can imagine that specialized tools are needed to cut and sand hickory, you start to get an idea of its incredible durability. This durability makes hickory an ideal option for busy households with children and pets, as well as high-traffic areas and commercial spaces.
Rich color and graceful grain pattern
Our Brooklyn clients also love hickory flooring for its broad range of colors, from lightest cream to rich cocoa, interwoven with streaks of gold, rust, red, and tan. Hickory also has a striking, rustic grain pattern marked by mineral streaks and knots. This interesting graining and color variation is best showcased on wider planks of at least 5 inches. Unlike some other hardwoods, hickory responds well to most stains, with lighter stains accentuating the unique grain patterns, and darker stains minimizing them. Hickory is ideal for creating a homespun country cabin look.
