When you are designing your dream home, you want to choose beautiful flooring to compliment the style of the architecture. Have your house stand out in the most beautiful way possible by selecting flooring that adds character to your home and is easy to maintain. Your floor choice is one of the most important aspects of your home and you want it to be strong, versatile, and long-lasting.

Hardwood flooring can add a real luxurious look to your home, and it is available in a variety of wood types. An array of colours and textures are available for you to pick from in Cochrane’s hardwood flooring stores. Here are several good reasons why hardwood is the ideal choice for your dream home.

 

Versatility

Whether you are looking for a modern atmosphere or want to have a home that shows off the warmth and richness of exotic wood, hardwood flooring can transform your living space. Hardwood flooring comes in endless tones from oak and cherry to maple and walnut. You can even add offbeat tones like blue for that daring look you are going for. You can choose an 8-inch wide plank or something thinner around 2 inches to suit your design needs. Whichever type of hardwood you pick, you will be happy with the warm and inviting feeling it evokes, no matter what your style is.

 

Strength and durability

Hardwood flooring is strong and can handle a lot of everyday wear and tear. Whether you choose solid or engineered hardwood, the durable finish helps prevent scrapes and scratches from appearing. Hardwood flooring is great for kitchens and other high-traffic zones in your house. Show off your luxurious style with hardwood flooring as a focal design aspect in any space in your home.

 

Easy to maintain

Keep your flooring looking great with the ease of maintenance that hardwood flooring provides. Taking care of your wood floors is as simple as using a hardwood floor cleaner and a microfibre mop. Simply vacuum off the dirt and dust, then with a quick mopping, your floors will look brand new. You can clean hardwood with a steam cleaner but be sure to follow the manufacturer’s recommendations so as not to cause damage to your beautiful wood. A Cochrane hardwood flooring store will carry cleaners specifically made for hardwood flooring, making it simple for you to keep the wood looking great.

If you spill something on your hardwood, all you need to do is wipe it up with a soft cloth. Keeping your hardwood clean is easy and, as a bonus, wood floors are one of the best choices if you have allergies. Hardwood does not hold onto dust and dander like carpets. If you have a pet, hardwood is the ideal option because there is no chance of pet fur getting embedded into the flooring as it would with carpet.
