If you’re looking to add a little luxury and warmth to your kitchen then the perfect way to do it is with oak wood flooring. While you may think the most obvious choice for kitchen flooring is typically hard-wearing tiles or natural stone, wooden floors definitely shouldn’t be overlooked.
With the right kind of wood, along with correct installation and care, hardwood flooring can not only add a distinct style to your kitchen, but it can be durable enough to last a lifetime.
TRAFFIC COMING
Inevitably the kitchen is one of the busiest rooms in modern homes, not just for cooking, but for socialising too. Therefore the floor has to be built to withstand a lot of use, spills, drops and more, which is why many people look to tiled floors to meet the demands of a busy kitchen.
But as we said before, hardwood flooring can be equally as robust if you look after it correctly and of course choose the right type of wood. Choosing a wood-like oak will ensure that your hardwood flooring is built to withstand the demands of your kitchen, as it’s one of the hardest species of woods around. This can give you peace of mind that it can stand up to heavy use, as well as the added benefit of stunning natural grains and textures that will cleverly help to hide any blemishes that may occur over time.
SUPER STYLISH
Another huge plus point for installing an oak wood floor in your kitchen is that you will have a floor that is as stylish today as it will be in twenty years time. Hardwood floors never go out of fashion; and the great thing is that it can be changed and updated to give it a new lease of life or fit in with a new décor theme, simply by sanding, refinishing and resealing.
ADDED VALUE
Not only will you have oodles of style points up your sleeve, but you will also have plenty of added value too. Hardwood floors are always desirable to potential buyers and retain their value very well. Thus, a hardwood floor installed today could add significant value to your home in the future.
As well as adding value to your property, it can also add value to your life. The warm, soft feel underfoot is something that you will always enjoy- giving your kitchen a warm feel, all year round.
