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.
Why should I choose hardwood?
Firstly, you will be getting a natural floor, which can add sophistication and elegance to your home. It is practical and is very low maintenance. You will find that cleaning your wooden floor is quick and easy, and will not stain like a carpet would. Just be sure to wipe away wet or dirty footprints straight away.
A wooden floor will complement almost any style and colour of décor. There are numerous options to choose from, including different colours, stains, finishes and plank styles. There is sure to be something that you will fall in love with.
It can last a lifetime if you look after it properly. Adopt a regular cleaning routine and you will keep it looking fresh and new for years. If it does start to look dull and tired, then you have the option of re-oiling the surface to bring it back to life.
What are my different options?
The colour choice of your hardwood floor depends on the species of wood you choose and whether you opt for a colour stain or a natural finish. Oak is a very popular choice as it has a timeless appeal and is much more hardwearing than a species like Walnut.
If you choose engineered wood flooring you can sometimes find wider plank options, which can give a completely different feel to your hallway. It can help to make the room look and feel bigger than it actually is.
Finally, you have the choice of either plank style flooring, or parquet block, which can be laid in a number of different patterns.
