Why is Hardwood Flooring a good choice for my home?

Hardwood floors add a beautiful, elegant, natural element to any home. In addition, they add value to your home and are popular in the resale home market. Advances in technology have led to our hardwood floors looking better, lasting longer, and easier to care for than ever. Below are some more reasons why to choose hardwood floors.

Hypoallergenic

Hardwood floors trap fewer allergens including dust, pollen, and dust mites than alternative flooring types. It is recommended by the American Lung Association to improve air quality.

Increased home value: Hardwood floors can last a lifetime and are always in style, making them cheaper in the long run because you don't have to reinstall.

Maintained properly, wood flooring should never have to be replaced.

However, they are considerably more work to install, often require a professional installer and the finish may not last as long unless it is recoated every five to seven years.

Timeless Style

Repairable

Hardwood floors can be re-finished to hide damage such as gouges.

Easy to Maintain

To keep them in good shape and looking new, normal care such as sweeping or vacuuming with a soft broom or vacuum is generally all that is required. To maintain its luster, use the manufacturers recommended cleaner with a dry mop and a terry cloth cover.
