Hardwood Floor Installation

When it comes to smart flooring options, be sure to consider the many benefits of having hardwood floors installed. Here at 212 Home Improvement, we like to educate our customer base on the many pros, and very few cons involved in making hardwood flooring a part of your home base.

To start with, hardwood floors look appealing – not only is a warm, homey look achieved with these floors, but they can also evoke memories of happy childhoods, favorite vacations, grandparent's house, and beautiful scenes from pictures and calendars.

Hardwood floors can be matched to any architectural style and design, from Tuscan, and Spanish Colonial, to Contemporary, English Tudor and even French Country. A good hardwood floor will never go out of style, or look outdated like a shag carpet.

Another strong consideration for hardwood floor installation is the health factor. With so many people suffering from allergies, dust and pollen, hardwood flooring represents a true alternative to most carpet choices, which can more easily harbor these irritants. Even the strongest vacuum cleaners always leave a layer of dust, mites and dander behind. This is simply not the case with a properly installed, and maintained hardwood floor.

If durability is important to you, then be sure to consider hardwood flooring over carpet. Well maintained, and regularly cleaned carpet can last you for years, but hardwood flooring with scratch resistant coating, can last for many decades, and longer. If you think of it as an investment in your home's value and future, then hardwood flooring is your smartest choice, hands down.

Are there any negatives involved with choosing hardwood floors over carpet? The only item that we can even remotely consider a negative, is the price factor. The overall upfront cost of hardwood floor installation will be slightly higher than your basic carpet. You should always consider wood flooring as an investment in your home's value, and appearance. Over time, your investment will pay off many times, as even the best carpet will need to be replaced periodically, versus hardwood flooring which can last a lifetime. Many clients claim the best of both worlds with a beautiful hardwood floor, topped by an area rug that also serves as a functional, and attractive investment.
