There’s a reason so many people love hardwood floors. The warm tones, natural texture, and timeless appeal instantly bring a sense of style to any space. But in commercial environments, wood floors come with a long list of drawbacks. They scratch easily, warp with moisture, require constant maintenance, and often don’t hold up under heavy traffic. That’s where woodcrete steps in.
WoodCrete is a custom concrete finish designed to resemble wood while performing like concrete. It captures the grain, tone, and organic beauty of hardwood while eliminating the hassle. At Custom Concrete Creations, we’ve helped businesses across Omaha achieve the high-end wood look with the long-term durability of polished concrete. Here’s how WoodCrete compares to traditional wood flooring.
1. Durability That Doesn't Quit
Real wood floors may look great on day one, but they’re prone to scratching, gouging, and denting, especially in high-traffic spaces like showrooms, restaurants, offices, and salons. Over time, furniture movement, foot traffic, and spills can wear down the finish and damage the wood beneath.
WoodCrete, on the other hand, is built on concrete. That means it is incredibly strong, resistant to impact, and will not warp or buckle. It stands up to the demands of commercial environments without compromising on aesthetics.
2. Moisture? No Problem.
Wood and water do not mix. One major spill or excessive humidity can lead to wood floors cupping, swelling, or exhibiting signs of mold beneath the surface. This makes traditional wood a risky choice for restaurants, breweries, or anywhere with unpredictable moisture levels.
With WoodCrete, you get the woodgrain look without the moisture anxiety. Our concrete finish is sealed and designed to repel water and stains, making it an ideal solution for both indoor and semi-outdoor environments.
3. Less Maintenance, More Peace of Mind
Maintaining real wood floors in good condition often requires regular refinishing, waxing, or applying specialized products. Even with care, scratches and fading are almost inevitable over time.
WoodCrete is much easier to maintain. It does not require special polishes or waxes. Regular sweeping and the occasional damp mop are all you need. It is tough enough to hold its appearance for years with minimal upkeep.
4. Endless Customization
If you do not want cookie-cutter hardwood planks, WoodCrete offers more flexibility. Choose from a variety of stain tones, wood grain textures, and layouts to match your brand aesthetic. Whether you prefer light ash tones or deep walnut warmth, we can create a custom floor finish that reflects your vision.
The Best of Both Worlds
WoodCrete is ideal for business owners seeking the sophisticated, natural beauty of wood combined with the durability of concrete. It is stylish, strong, and built for real life.
