Custom houses across Toronto and the GTA
Floors Toronto serves custom and renovation projects across Toronto, Yorkville, Forest Hill, North York, Mississauga, Vaughan, Oakville, Markham, and the wider GTA. Custom home builders coordinating Markham, Oakville, Forest Hill, and North York sites use Floors Toronto to lock colour across main floors, upper levels, and matching stairs. Sample boards arrive at the model home or jobsite and are picked up after client approval under real daylight and evening lamps.

European white oak specification summary
Floors Toronto serves custom and renovation projects across Toronto, Yorkville, Forest Hill, North York, Mississauga, Vaughan, Oakville, Markham, and the wider GTA. Planks are manufactured at a uniform 3/4 inch thickness over a cross-ply birch core so indoor relative humidity swings — often 20–30% in unmanaged Toronto winters and near 60–70% in humid summers — move the floor less than solid strip. Aim for about 35–55% RH once the space is occupied.
| Spec | Floors Toronto value |
|---|---|
| Species | European white oak wear layer |
| Thickness | 3/4 inch overall |
| Core | Cross-ply birch plywood |
| Grades | AB (cleaner) / ABC (character) |
| Straight plank | 7½″, 9¼″, 10¼″ |
| Patterns | Herringbone and chevron |
| Finish | UV-cured aluminum oxide |
| Stain | Free custom stain matching on every order |
| Samples | Delivered on location; picked up after review |
Free custom stain matching means millwork, paint, and stone references can be calibrated on physical oak boards before production locks colour — so walkthroughs in Toronto homes and commercial suites do not rely on phone photos or retail lighting alone.
