Why is it that almost everyone that is building or renovating houses these days are using Oak wood for floors, doors, kitchens, stairs etc ? I cant understand this. There cant be enough Oak left in Ireland to cope with this demand - indeed I would hope Oak are not being felled in Ireland anymore - so I have to assume that we are importing all this Oak - where from ? Are we destroying Oak forests in other countries ? Why cant we use Irish forests and recycable wood e.g. Pine ? Is Oak that much better than other more environmentally friendly alternatives ? Seems to me that the Celtic Cubs have to have Oak because its the most expensive and to keep up with their friends. I am renovating soon and intend to use pine everywhere I think - am I the only one ?
