Experience the innovation of Preverco at Whole Wood. As the Bay Area’s source for premium Canadian hardwood, we offer Preverco’s full range of species and high-tech platforms at unbeatable warehouse pricing.
Preverco is world-renowned for its meticulous manufacturing standards and its revolutionary approach to floor construction. Based in Quebec, Canada, Preverco doesn't just offer beautiful colors—they offer a selection of "Platforms" designed to ensure your floor stays stable and beautiful regardless of your home's unique environment. At Whole Wood, we help you navigate these technical options to find the perfect Preverco floor for your San Francisco or Peninsula project.
The Preverco "Platform" Advantage
The brilliance of Preverco lies in their engineering. You choose your favorite wood species and color, then select the construction platform that matches your installation needs:
- Preverco Solid: The classic 100% hardwood experience. Best for above-grade installations where traditional feel and longevity are the priority.
- Preverco Flex: A high-performance engineered platform with a specialized core that provides exceptional stability against the Bay Area's humidity shifts. Perfect for many subfloor types.
- Preverco Max: The ultimate engineered solution. Featuring a sawn-face wear layer and a cross-layered core, Max is designed for maximum stability in wide-plank formats and can even be installed over radiant heat.
Why Choose Preverco from Whole Wood?

- Environmentally Responsible: All Preverco products are sustainably sourced and meet the strictest indoor air quality standards (FSC and Lacey Act compliant).

Is Preverco flooring good for the Bay Area climate?
Yes. Preverco’s Flex and Max platforms are specifically designed to handle the expanding and contracting caused by humidity changes. They are much more stable than standard solid wood in coastal environments like Marin or San Francisco.
Can Preverco be installed over concrete?
Absolutely. The Preverco engineered platforms—Flex and Max—are ideal for installation over concrete slabs common in many Peninsula and South Bay homes.
How does Preverco's finish compare to others?
Preverco’s Sigma™ finish is widely considered one of the most durable in the industry. It is designed to resist yellowing over time and provides a highly transparent look that allows the natural wood beauty to shine through.
