The Pros of Wood Floors
Hardwood flooring installation is popular within the real estate market. As it can be a beautiful addition to almost any home and will significantly increase your enjoyment of the property.
So the question to ask is this, are hardwood floors a good addition to your home? Let’s consider some pros of hardwood flooring.
Pros Of Wood Floors
- Adds value to your home: Hardwood floors are typically on the top of every homeowner’s “must have” wish list. Trading wall-to-wall carpet for wood flooring will significantly increase the value of your home and make it easier to sell should the time ever come.
- Durable: A quality wood floor has been known to last a lifetime when compared to carpet, which needs to be replaced every 8 – 10 years. And, soiled or stained carpet will need to be replaced or cleaned, whereas, wood floors can be refinished if you want to refresh them, saving you the cost of replacing them.
- Easier to keep clean: Wood floors very rarely harbor stains and odors the way carpets do. Meaning you do not have to spend time determining how to remove stains from the carpet or spend time worrying about potential stains. This can be beneficial if you have children that are prone to spilling stuff. Just make sure you clean up spills immediately, and that the floor is dried out, you will not have any long-term reminders.
- Non-allergenic: On a similar note when it comes to cleaning, hardwood floors will not collect the likes of pet dander, dust, and other allergens the same way that carpets do. For those family members that suffer from allergies, hardwood floors are the best choice all around.
