Order Wood Floor Samples | Carlisle Wide Plank Floors

Order a Sample

See it in your light before you decide anything.

Wood changes with the room, so every Carlisle sample is cut from a real floor and finished by the same hands that will finish yours. Because color changes most with its surroundings, it’s the only choice we ask you to make now. Each complimentary sample arrives on 8″ White Oak in Heirloom grade with a Super Matte sheen, ready to ship. Choose up to four colors, build your own mix, or let a Carlisle consultant assemble a kit for you.

Cost: Complimentary
Format: 8″ White Oak
Per order: Up to 4 samples
Turnaround: 1-3 days

However you begin, the goal is the same: a finish that feels at home in your space.

Curated Colors

Every sample here is cut on the same 8″ White Oak, Heirloom grade, Super Matte, so what changes between two of them is the color and nothing else. Order the texture you are considering, or both.

Let us find your color.

Our curated colors all started this way — a client brought us something to hit, and our colorists hit it. The service never stopped being free. It starts with one question.

Your color request is in the order — change an answer below and update it, or review & ship when you’re ready.

Do you have something you are matching?

Both answers reach our colorists. They just change what we work from.

01What are we matching?

This tells the colorists what to trust in your photo and what to ignore.

02Your photos

Two or three beats one. Different times of day beats different angles.

How to shoot it so we can match it

01 Put something known in the frame A sheet of plain white printer paper next to the surface — or better, a Carlisle sample you already have — gives our shop a fixed point to correct your photo against. It is the single biggest thing you can do for accuracy.
02 Shoot in daylight, near a window No flash, no overhead lights. Lamplight and LED both push wood tones in directions your eye corrects for and a camera does not.
03 Fill the frame with the surface Straight on, close, no strong shadow across it. Then one wider shot so we can see the room it lives in.
04 Send the original file Not a screenshot, and not through a messaging app if you can avoid it. Both throw away color information before it reaches us.

03The light it will live in

A match that works under one light can miss under another. Knowing your room lets our colorists judge the match in the light it has to live in.

04Anything else worth knowing Optional

Anything else worth knowing

Your photos set the direction, and a colorist reads them and reaches out before anything is made.

01Where is the room going?

Nearest one is fine. Nothing here is locked in.

02How light or dark?

03What is the space?

04Anything else worth knowing Optional

Anything else worth knowing

This is usually where the useful information lives. It should never be the price of admission.

While the box travels

Look at them at three times of day.

Lay the pieces on the floor, not the counter, and look in morning light, afternoon light and lamplight. Wood moves more between those three than it does between two colors on a screen. Your consultant can walk the comparison with you on a call whenever you are ready.
