Frequently Asked Questions

How light is Comtal? Comtal is the lightest Chateau color, a whitewashed near-white oak with a soft, warm undertone.

Will a white oak floor show dirt? Very light floors can show tracked-in dirt sooner than mid-tones. Comtal's rustic grain and wire-brushed texture help hide everyday scuffs.

What style suits Comtal? Comtal suits coastal, Scandinavian, French country, and bright modern farmhouse interiors.

Can Comtal be installed in a basement? Yes. Chateau is engineered hardwood rated for above- or below-grade installation, and it can be glued down, nailed down, or floated. Follow Tesoro Woods' installation guidelines for subfloor moisture testing and prep.

Authentic French Oak, Built to Last

Every Comtal plank has a thick 4mm sawn French oak wear layer on a solid cross-slat core, built in a stable 3-layer engineered format. The thick sawn face looks and feels like solid hardwood, and the cross-slat core resists the cupping and gapping that solid wood can show with seasonal humidity changes. A UV-cured matte finish protects the surface with a low-sheen, natural look.

Healthy, Responsibly Sourced Flooring

Tesoro Woods builds Chateau from 100% PEFC-certified material, with chain of custody documented from forest to jobsite. It is FloorScore and GREENGUARD Gold certified for low emissions, has no added urea formaldehyde, and is Lacey Act and Prop 65 compliant.
