I am pretty familiar with floors...(i sell them
, not in van tho)
Feel free to ask if you've got any question.
In case your neighbor is ripping you off...
5" x 1/2" Engineered Floor from china cost is around $2.60-$3.60/sqft. (pretty sure those stuffs they are selling on the website are from China)
7.5"Wide & 6' Long Plank stuffs are around $4-$6.
The canadian name brand stuffs will be significantly more expensive...but the good chinese made stuffs is not too bad...for the average person it is hard to distinguish the good from the bad tho.
These are ontario pricing...direct import or retailer wholesale cost.
Also...some of my opinions in terms of look
Wavy Handscrapped texture is kinda going out of style now. (very popular last 5 years)
The European styles floors are getting more popular now (6-7"+ wide, matte/oil finish, flat but with textures)
The smooth finish floor is very "classic" and won't go out of styles..but they show everything. (Scratch & dents etc)
But at the end of the day...pick whatever look you like lol
