No one can ever doubt the visual appeal of wood flooring. You'll always be guaranteed natural beauty that gives your home a warm, charming, and elegant look. Wood floors also come with durability and have countless other benefits, as we'll explain further in this post.
Our hardwood flooring company carries traditional, domestically harvested species and exotics like Brazilian cherry, ebony, or teak, all from the most well-respected companies like Mohawk, Armstrong, Bruce, Lauzon, Millikan, and Shaw, to name a few. We look forward to having you come into our showroom to explore our samples.
Benefit #1: versatility for any style
With so many colors, solid hardwood flooring can be stained lighter or darker to coordinate with any style, from contemporary to the most traditional. If you decide you need a change, no problem because all you have to do is have the floors sanded and stained another color. You can even go from the darkest dark to light floors; I know because I did it.
Benefit #2: long-lasting beauty
These floors last for decades; some even have been known to last over 100 years. Like a fine wine, they get better with age and, when they start to look worn and dull, all it usually takes is a refinishing to bring them back to their original luster. That translates into few, if any, replacement costs, making them cost-effective when you look at the overall product.
Other advantages include:
1. Low maintenance. These floors need daily sweeping or dry mopping and periodic damp mopping with a wood cleaner. The sweeping is vital because sand and dirt can be sharp and scratch; also, wipe spills immediately since the liquid is public enemy #one for wood floors.
You might also consider employing some routine safeguards, such as strategically placing mats, especially at entrances; keeping pet nails trimmed; using protective furniture pads to avoid scratching, and avoiding wearing stilettos on them.
2. Adding value to a property: You will see this return in two ways; first, you'll recoup 70% to 80% of the cost of the floors, as reflected in your home value. A home valued at $300K could become worth $324 or more. If you are selling, prospective buyers will often pay at least 2.5% more for a home with wood floors.
