Wood flooring has a natural beauty that is undeniable. But, while many people believe that the color and grain of wood are permanent features, this isn't always the case. Wood can be stained or fumed to achieve different results for your home. The process of staining involves applying a dye or pigment to the surface of the wood in order to change its appearance.
Fuming differs from staining because it doesn't require any type of chemical application; instead, ammonia gas is released into an enclosed chamber with wood inside like you would find at a lumber mill! The gas reacts with the wood's cellulose and tannin, changing its color. The process doesn't always produce the same result when different woods are used or if certain steps aren't taken first to prepare them for fuming. This means that your final look is going to be a custom one-of-a-kind appearance!
