Do you want to give your living room a luxury remodel? One easy premium remodeling idea is installing a hardwood floor. It can transform the look of your living room to a classy and sophisticated space. For a long time hardwood floors were only common in high-end homes and establishments, but they have become more accessible because of better global supply. You can now have custom-built hardwood flooring with a wide variety of types of lumber, colors, and shades. What are the benefits of custom-built hardwood floors?
Fits Every Décor
Hardwood flooring retains a classic elegance over the years that goes along well with both traditional and contemporary décor styles. In addition, hardwood flooring compliments a wide range of furniture and upholstery.
Custom-built hardwood floors give you a freer hand in experimenting with décor styles. The good thing is that you don't have to change the flooring with every décor makeover. It is less disruptive and more affordable.
High Aesthetic Appeal
You can achieve a highly unique look with custom-built hardwood flooring. Besides traditional hardwoods like oak and maple, there is now a greater supply of exotic hardwoods. Global supply chains have made exotic hardwoods more accessible. You can now access species like Kempas, Brazilian walnut, Tigerwood, sapele mahogany, Burmese Blackwood, and Chakte Viga.
Hardwoods come in a variety of colors, including beige, black, brown, red, and white. Your floor can go for a glossy shine or matte. You can also choose between dark, light, or medium shades. You can have a unique floor that will leave a deep impression on your guests.
Better Indoor Air Quality
Hardwood flooring helps to improve indoor air quality. You can have custom-built hardwood flooring with a smooth finish to prevent the accumulation of dust, pet dander, hair, and assorted allergens. It is a healthier alternative to carpets and rugs that trap allergens in their fibers.
Easy Maintenance
Custom-built hardwood floors offer the advantage of easy maintenance. The fact that hardwood does not accumulate dust, mud, and grime makes it easier to clean. You can easily clean the floor with a damp mop and clean off more stubborn oil and color stains with water and detergent.
Hardwood flooring offers a superior advantage because you can refinish it and make it look good as new. Floor sanding removes a thin top layer and takes off scratches, stubborn stains, and dull patches. It is significantly cheaper than installing new flooring.
