Cabin grade hardwood flooring, also called “tavern grade,” is a very popular alternative to fully warrantied wood flooring. A good quality cabin grade wood will produce a good-looking floor, but it will be more rustic and have more character than better grades of wood. In other words, it will have more light and dark boards, more mineral streaks, pin holes, and small knots holes. When purchasing cabin grade wood, you will need to purchase 15% extra material than the square footage  you are covering. This allows your installer to discard unusable boards or cut out bad sections.
