Choosing the right flooring for a room in your home can sometimes feel like an overwhelming task. We want to make sure you find the flooring that will hold up against the wear and tear of your daily lives. This is why we’ve put together a list of questions you can ask yourself as you’re considering the various flooring options for your home.
Room logistics
Think about the size of the room. Does it stand alone, or does it open to other rooms or to the outside? Are you looking for it to match the flooring in any adjoining rooms? These are important questions to consider as you price out your flooring.
Style
How do you want to feel when you’re in the room? Your flooring should help you achieve this feeling. Also, if you’re not planning on replacing the furnishing or appliances, consider how they’ll match the flooring you choose.
Risk factors
Do you eat in this room? Is there an outside door? Will children play in the room? Do you have indoor pets? These are all questions you’ll want to ask as you choose a flooring option. Some materials hold up better than others when it comes to stains, moisture, and pet hair. If you have questions about which options are best for your household, feel free to ask!
Expectations
Are you looking for style or practicality in your flooring purchase, or a healthy balance of both? What’s the first thing you want to notice when you enter the room? Do you plan to sell your home soon? How you feel about these questions may impact the type of flooring you ultimately choose, as well as the investment you’re willing to make.
We hope this post helps as you consider which flooring option is right for you, or at least gets you thinking about your preferences! Remember that if you have any questions, our associates are always eager to help. Stop on in or give us a call anytime!
