Everybody has their own preferences and their own unique needs for particular flooring types. Some hardwood options work for some homes and not for others, but given the range of choices there are some that we really like and think would work well in most homes:

Wide Plank Hardwood –

This kind of wood has its own very special appeal to some homeowners. As the name implies wide plank hardwood is wider than what you traditionally, approximately 3-5 inches in difference. What wide plank hardwood flooring offer is the perspective of a larger space. Slimmer planks can make the space feel more constrained. In terms of aesthetics, wide planks are an older style. However, they can add a quaint feeling to any interior.

Distressed Hardwood –

With distressed hardwood, you get the elegance of modern wood flooring with the rustic appeal of the antique log cabin styling. Though distressed wood types can appear a little too dated in the wrong way, as in they were quite common in the 1970s, the modern day distressed wood flooring was quite popular and some customers might feel there’s a cliche attached to distressed hardwood, but that doesn’t have to be the case.

What should you look for in a good hardwood floor? As we have said, everybody has their own preferences, but durability is a major factor. No matter what choice of wood you make, you need to make sure that what you buy can stand the wear and tear brought about by walking around in shoes, or your child walking in their baseball cleats, or your dog running around playing fetch. Aesthetics and elegance go along way, but durability goes further, years further as a matter of fact. Call us today and be sure to check out the rest of our collection!
