Thinking About a New Floor? Five Excellent Reasons to Choose Hardwood Flooring when Remodeling
If you're remodeling, you should seriously consider updating your flooring. A new hardwood floor will give your home an impressive look and prevent scratches and stains. Here are five very good reasons why you should consider a hardwood floor for your next remodeling project.
Hardwood Is More Durable Than Other Materials
Hardwood is much more durable and longer lasting than many other flooring materials. If there's a lot of traffic in your home, hardwood floors are less likely to get scratches and dents than vinyl tiles or laminated floors. On weaker floors, damage is often permanent - but with hardwood floors, any imperfections can be sanded and refinished to make your floor look as good as new.
Hardwood Offers A Wide Array Of Styles
Hardwood flooring is very versatile, and it comes in a wide assortment of styles and colors. Hardwood is also available in a variety of textures to compliment any decor or color scheme. It's easy to buy small area rugs that match the flooring rather than having wall-to-wall carpeting installed that may have to be replaced when it gets worn or stained.
It's A Good Long Term Investment
Hardwood flooring is one of the most practical investments you can make in your home. Carpeting, vinyl tile, linoleum, and laminate flooring will eventually need to be replaced. Although the initial investment of installing hardwood floors in your home is more than you'd spend on some of the alternatives, hardwood lasts much longer than other materials – so you spend less money in the long run.
Selling Your Home Is Easier
Hardwood flooring is an extremely attractive material that a lot of homeowners love. It also increases your home's value. If you put your home on the market, you're making a good investment by making your home more appealing to buyers.
You'll Experience Fewer Allergy Problems. Click on carpet vs hardwood pic for more details.
Carpeting can cause symptoms from allergies to get worse, because dust and other allergens like pet dander can get trapped in the fibers. Doctors often recommend that patients with severe allergies get rid of the carpeting in their home and replace it with hardwood flooring. With this type of flooring, it's a simple matter to sweep or mop the floor, so allergies are no longer an issue.
Hardwood flooring is a highly popular interior design choice that is taking modern homes by storm. If you're renovating your home in the near future, consider installing hardwood flooring as a means of giving it a classic floor that you and your guests will adore. Instead of replacing carpet every time it gets worn out or stained or the color gets old, install hardwood one time and you are done. It is especially desirable if you are thinking of selling in the near future. If you have any questions or need any help, just call, text or email, me, Karen.
