The flooring we install in Tiburon runs toward the higher end of what is available, wide-plank white oak most often, walnut and hickory after that. Larger rooms carry a wide board well and most homes here have the square footage for it. Wide plank is also where engineered earns its keep, because a seven-inch solid board has considerably more room to cup than a seven-inch engineered one.
The other thing Tiburon homes have is glass. A lot of these houses were built for the view, with big south and west-facing windows, and that much direct light fades a finish unevenly over the years. You end up with a bright patch where the sun lands and the original color everywhere else. It is one of the more common reasons we get called out to refinish a floor that is not otherwise damaged at all.
