Having a wooden floor in your home is a really popular choice. The natural beauty of the wood can transform any room by giving it a feel of luxury and sophistication. Wooden floors never go out of fashion as they tend to complement most colour schemes and furnishings. New styles and colours of wooden floors are constantly becoming popular and throughout the years, the trends change.
Having a hardwood floor in your hallway is a fantastic choice. The hallway is the entrance to your home, and the first impression that people get of your lifestyle and living choices. You will want to wow people with stunning décor and a beautiful floor. What better choice than a timeless, elegant and versatile wooden floor. It can create a stylish, yet modern and inviting feel to your home.
Having hardwood flooring in your bedroom can be a strange concept to some people, however, we think it is a great choice. It is hygienic, easy to clean and will instantly add character and charm to your bedroom. If you prefer a warmer feel underfoot, you could always add a rug to give you the softness and a burst of colour.
Chevron is a stunning style of flooring that creates an unusual ‘V’ shape. In our range of Chevron Oak, we have 3 different colours to choose from; natural, smoked and dark smoked.
Parquet block flooring can be used to create fun and stylist patterns. The small blocks of flooring are uniform in size, meaning that they can be fitted together to create geometric patterns. There are three main patterns that can be created: Herringbone, Basket Weave and Brick Bond. Alongside these patterns, the blocks can be used to provide beautiful borders around the edge of your room. Be sure to check first though, as some patterns need to have specific sized parquet blocks.
When choosing a new wooden floor, you will have to decide between solid or engineered wood. They both look exactly the same once installed but have some very significant differences that you will want to know about. The most obvious difference is how the planks of flooring have been made, which then affects how you can install and use them.
If you choose an engineered wooden floor, you have much more flexibility in where you can install it. Engineered hardwood is much more stable so can withstand fluctuations in temperature, moisture and humidity. You will still need to be very careful in rooms with excessive water (bathrooms and utility rooms), and we would not recommend that you install your wooden floor in these types of rooms. That being said, there are plenty of areas where you can install a wooden floor in your home.
LVT flooring is a fantastic floor for your home which is quickly becoming more and more popular. LVT stands for Luxury Vinyl Tile. It is robust, durable and extremely versatile, so can be used throughout your home and even in busy commercial venues.
The best way to keep on top of cleaning your wooden floor is to implement a simple, effective, and manageable cleaning routine. Cleaning is an essential part of caring for your wooden floor, and it will keep it looking fresh and new for years to come. Your flooring can be a lifelong investment so cleaning it is vital to its longevity. The best way thing to do is create a simple and quick routine that can be built in around your everyday life.
