Engineered hardwood is more water-resistant and environmentally stable than solid hardwood due to its layered construction, but it is not fully waterproof. Waterproof does not mean flood proof. Prolonged exposure to moisture can still cause warping or damage. It is suitable for areas with occasional spills but not for consistently wet environments like bathrooms or for flooded basements.
