Tips for choosing the flooring for your home

Choosing the correct flooring for your home can have a huge impact on how your home looks and feels whenever someone walks in the door.

It's also something you'll want to get right the first time because you'll be living with your choice for a long time.

Space

The first thing to think about is the room or rooms where the flooring will be installed.

The room's size and shape, as well as how it's furnished, can all play a role in making the best decision.

In this regard, flooring works similar to wall coverings and paint. Small rooms will feel more spacious with light colors, while darker accents will add warmth if needed.

Durability

Flooring is an investment that pays for itself in the terms of increased home value and ease of living.

Consider how long the flooring you choose will last. Tile, laminate, and vinyl flooring are known for being long-lasting options that have the look of wood flooring but are much more durable.

Consider the durability required to withstand extra scuffing and damage if you have pets or children.

Budget

Flooring, like everything else these days, can be relatively inexpensive or jaw-droppingly expensive.

Knowing your budget is important, but sticking to it is even more important. Determine how much you have to spend and stay within your budget.

 You and your hard-earned money are being torn apart by marketing materials and friendly showroom workers. Stick to your criteria.

Maintenance

Consider how much time and effort you're willing to devote to keeping your flooring in good shape.

A certain amount of polishing, sealing, refinishing, vacuuming, or deep scrubbing is required for each type of flooring.

Keep this in mind before committing if you expect to be short on time and want low-maintenance, easy-to-clean flooring.

Best ways to clean hardwood floors

27th January 2022
"While wooden flooring is a long-lasting option for almost any room in the house, it does require some care and maintenance."

While wooden flooring is a long-lasting option for almost any room in the house, it does require some care and maintenance especially if you want to extend its longevity.

Here's how to keep them clean and shining for many years:

No Steam Cleaners

Steam cleaners are common household appliances that sanitize your flooring by using vapor cleaning.

Steam cleaners have the potential to cause discoloration, finish changes, warping, and cracking in solid wood floors.

Sweep, mop (carefully not to use too much liquid), and dustpan regularly to ensure the finish is as flawless as possible, looking nice and clean, and not collecting dirt.

Cleaning dry

The key to maintaining the beauty of your flooring is to begin by cleaning dry, not wet.

Vacuuming and sweeping regularly is essential for hardwood care.

If you do it correctly, you'll be dry cleaning far more frequently than wet cleaning.

Clearing your wood of the dust, dirt, and grit that comes with daily wear and tear makes a huge difference in the finished product.

Sweep, mop, vacuum

This method of cleaning ensures that any dirt and dust are effectively removed without causing damage to your flooring.

To avoid scratches or marks on the flooring caused by cleaning, use a soft brush hoover.

Though this method appears to add three more chores to your list, it's a small price to pay for a luxurious finish and the avoidance of premature replacements due to damage.

No Over-mopping

When you need to get your floors wet, keep it simple: use a floor spray and a well-out, damp mop.

Moisture is a hardwood's worst enemy, and once it's in, it's difficult to get out, resulting in buckling, swelling, and warping.

Mop your rising areas no more than once a week for best results.

Mopping too frequently can wear down the seal on your floors or oversaturate them with water.
