Aren’t all flooring types the same?

Aren’t all flooring types the same?


When you get ready to choose new floors, you may initially feel overwhelmed by the extensive selection of materials and options. It may lead you to ask, aren't all flooring types similar?

The truth is that they are not, and understanding how they differ can make all the difference in your remodel. So here are some facts about why it's essential to shop around.

Comfort and performance


Most flooring is considered "hard-surface" material, except for carpet, which is soft, comfortable, and relaxing. As the only soft surface covering, it benefits areas like bedrooms and children's rooms better than new floors with a hard surface.

Once thought to make allergies worse, these floors trap allergens and hold them until you vacuum. They're also harder to stain and easier to clean, thanks to built-in stain and odor resistance.

Lifetime lifespan opportunities


If you'd like this to be your last shopping experience, consider products like solid hardwood or natural stone. With professional installation, these floors can easily exceed 100 years of life, offering outstanding durability.

These are perfect additions to even your busiest areas, depending on factors like humidity and subfloor preparation. Our flooring company offers all the details about installation and care once you choose your materials.
