There’s no question that solid wood flooring looks great. The polished wood and detailed finish make it a timeless feature in any home. We’ve all seen those immaculate hallways laid with wood floors, but why is it a great option for the living room too?
A Solid wood floor matched with your room’s themes and tones can seamlessly improve your living room. Let’s be honest, your first impressions of a home almost always involve the floor. It’s not just aesthetics though! A natural wood floor is well known to increase the feeling of space in a room. So, if you want to make your living room feel larger than life this could be a great option. Check out the virtual showroom on our website to see this magic in action!
Your home needs to be your happy place, and that means it needs to stand the test of time. We’ve all been there, the dogs have come through the door with muddy paws, or you haven’t taken your shoes off after the hectic school run. With a hardwood floor, you’ll wave goodbye to those sleepless nights. Maintaining a hardwood floor is naturally a walk in the park as the solid surface is stain resistant and can easily be cleaned.
This is probably solid wood flooring’s worst kept secret but it’s true! A well-maintained floor is one of the first things homebuyers look out for when buying their new house. Not only this but many carpets are known to cause allergies for some people. It’s no wonder then, why hardwood is such a great option if you’re looking to boost your home’s value.
As we’ve already mentioned, a wooden floor is your best friend when it comes to a spring clean! However, these cleaning benefits won’t only make your living room shine, they’ll also give you the best chance of removing any toxins. It’s not just your surfaces that will thank you though. With less dust hiding in your living room, the air quality will improve, so you and your guests need not worry about allergies anymore.
A couple of other honourable mentions when it comes to hardwood flooring are improved acoustics and comfort. A dense natural wood floor will dampen any noise in your living room so it can be that retreat you need after a hectic day. What’s more, natural wood is probably your best bet for comfort too. It certainly beats laminate, stone or tile.
At the end of the day, your living room is likely one of the busiest rooms in the house. So a floor that’s durable, comfortable, and hygienic ticks all of the boxes. Want to take the first steps into hardwood flooring? Contact Just Wood Flooring today!
