Vertical & straight grain, wide-plank flooring for your Sing Log Home

Sing Log Homes are solid and substantial homes. They need “solid” flooring to compliment them.

Our Sing Flooring™ System consists of vertical and straight grain wide planks that are made from 1-1/2” or 2-3/8” solid wood laminates. Thanks to the patented quarter-sawn manufacturing technique and the laminating process, the Sing Flooring System is thicker than most solid wood floors,and yet more dimensionally stable than most engineered wood floors on the market. It is truly the best of both worlds

The Benefits of using Sing Home Flooring are endless. Here a list of a few of them:

◾ Does Not Require Subfloor – Sing Flooring is subfloor and finish floor in one. Just fasten Sing Flooring to the floor joists like subfloor, then sand and finish like any premium solid wood floor. Sing Flooring can even be exposed to the weather during construction.

◾ Dimensionally Stable  – Sing Flooring is manufactured from laminating quarter-sawn (vertical grain) solid wood strips. Quarter-sawn lumber offers superior strength and dimensional stability over flat-sawn lumber. Sing Flooring virtually will not warp, sag, or squeak.

◾ Water Resistant – Unlike any other solid or engineered wood flooring, Sing Flooring offers unparalleled water resistance. During our tests, Sing Flooring had been exposed to the weather for 2 months (often soaked in rain) with no structural nor cosmetic damages.

◾ Healthy & Sustainable – No formaldehyde or other toxic chemicals are used during Sing Flooring’s manufacturing. Now you can enjoy wood as a healthy natural resource. Sing Flooring is also a environmentally friendly and sustainable wood product, since it can be manufactured from much smaller lumber.

◾ Quiet & Warm  – Sing Flooring is comfortable to walk on. The plank’s extra thick “soft” wood construction makes Sing Flooring quieter and less tympanic than most hard wood flooring. Sing Flooring also offers more thermal mass than regular thinner flooring materials. The ability to retain and slowly release heat give Sing Flooring a warm feel and also makes it an ideal wood floor for radiant floor heating.

◾ Long & Wide  – Sing Flooring is one of the widest (9-1/2″) and longest (up to 16′) solid wood flooring materials on the market. This translates to less labor and fewer seams.

◾ Install Anywhere  – Sing Flooring is versatile due to its strength, dimensional stability and water resistance. Now you can have beautiful hard wood floor anywhere in the house -even in bathrooms. The Sing Flooring Premium is perfect for loft or upper level flooring application -wood flooring and ceiling planks in one installation. Other applications include roof deck, outdoor decking and counter tops.

Garage Doors

Peter was inspired recently to find yet another use for Sing Honeycomb Panels. We’re launching a line of insulated panels for overhead garage doors. He noticed that too many nice homes have dinged up garage doors. It’s because garage doors are expensive to repair. You don’t want to replace a panel for a golf ball dent, so you let it go until the damage is beyond cosmetic. Soon, you’ve run into the garage door with your car or time has made the edges drafty, so you shell out a fortune to have it repaired in a hurry. If your door had been more sturdy from the start, you’d be on a mini vacation.

No more dented metal garage doors

No more dented metal garage doors

 

This also raised the question, why so many dented doors? They’re mostly made of steel, which is strong, right? Well, I was wrong about that too. The steel used in garage doors is extremely thin, so it doesn’t get the strength we expect of steel. What can we do? We need durable doors. They’re the first defense for our home. How many times have you heard of a break-in through the garage?

Sing Honeycomb to the rescue! Our insulated panels are going to revolutionize the garage door industry. Lowe’s carries DIY insulation kits, but that won’t repair the dents and air gaps. When it’s finally time to replace the garage door, Sing will be there.We use insulation foam to support our cores. We use a veneer torsion box grid embedded in the foam sandwich core to make our panels strong and unchanging. I’ve hit them with 30lb kettle bells with not even a mark. We’re looking into the most common measurements for garage doors, and we’ll test the water this summer during remodel season. This can be huge. The garage no longer needs to be drafty and dented.

We’ll also need customers to share their photos and successes with us, so be one of the first owners of a new Sing Garage Door, and possibly earn a marketing discount.
