Milling

Flooring is ordered by the square foot and is trimmed to provide 100 percent usable material for the grade. Standard lengths are random from 1' - 12' and standard milling is tongue and groove in 'flooring match' with more wood above the tongue, a back relief pattern and a nail groove over the tongue to ease installation.
