Flooring Choices

Carefully consider the type of flooring you select for each room in your home. Make choices based on room size, health concerns, traffic, and value. Certain flooring choices can increase allergens, require expensive cleanings, or costly remodeling to implement. Consider these flooring tips when selecting flooring:
Room size: Select light colored or large patterned flooring in smaller rooms to create the illusion of space.

Traffic: High traffic areas like kitchens and entryways benefit from the durability and easy cleaning of tile or laminate flooring. Maintain warmth and comfort in the bedroom and family room with carpeting.

Health: Avoid wall-to-wall carpeting if you are plagued by respiratory problems or severe allergies. Wood and tile floors are less likely to harbor dust and pollen.

Value: Because it's also considered a major piece of the decorating canvas, flooring value fluctuates with interior decorating needs. Today, hardwood floors are considered high-demand. Consider interior decorating magazines to find out what's hot now.

Installing new flooring can bring new vitality and energy to a room. Smart flooring choices can increase the overall value of your home and level of enjoyment for your family.
