I pulled up all the carpet in my hallway-2/3 of the underneath was beautiful hardwoods. The last 1/3 is underlayment. I need to try to replace this with something close to hardwood. My installer suggested "mannington Adura Plank". None of their colors/patterns came close to what I need. Do you know of another Co that makes this kind of plank? My installer doesn't do "floating floor", so I'd prefer to stay away from Pergo & the like. I have been to 4 other Floor stores & can't get info. Please help. Thanks/Jina

Is this solid 3/4" hardwood flooring? What species? You can purchase unfinished flooring in the same thickness, width, and species and then finish the entire floor to match.

Actually, that is a bit TOO DIY for me. Just trying to find out the other MFG Co's that make the Vinyl Planl/Tiles. Can you supply me those? Thanks

The flooring is not wood, but vinyl planks? There are quite a few vinyl plank manufacturers. Depending on how long the floor has been down, the color and style you seek may no longer be available even if you knew the manufacturer. Your best bet may be to install new vinyl planks on the whole area. This would assure consistency in color and style.
