What Is a Microbevel and Why Is It on Flooring?

What a Microbevel Is?

A microbevel is a 45-degree cut down the sides of the long sides of floorboards

 When two microbevel floorings join together, the bevels create a shape, just like a V.

Why choose Microbevels?  

Pre-finished wood flooring is installed and is ready to use immediately, no sanding and finishing. But that can prove to be a detriment, too,

since you cannot sand down those unequal heights between boards.Microbevels are becoming the norm in much of pre-finished wood flooring.

Microbevels are a way to hide unequal heights of pre-finished floorboards. The heights are still in place,but they just aren’t as easy to see.

Some homeowners like microbevels because they channel and collect dust rather than leaving it on the surface, where it can scratch.

Homeowners should use a microfiber mop for cleaning floors that have microbevels. Mop in the direction of the floorboards’ length.
