I'm buying a new build flat which has what is described as an 'engineered solid wood floor' in the main living area. I've only seen it once and to my (totally untrained) eye it looks 'unfinished' so I'm thinking it needs some kind of seal applied to it. I'd appreciate it if anyone could tell me if this is usual for new builds as personally I've no idea. I don't mind varnishing it myself if necessary. Also, what the hell is an 'engineered solid wood floor'? As from the sticky posted above it sounds like a bit of a contradiction in terms! Thanks.
