How To Flooring For A Room Remodel

By Tim Brown


Remodeling is a big task and you want to make sure it's perfect and a big part of any job is the floor. Flooring can make or break a project.

Each type of flooring has advantages and disadvantages. Home owners should consider their choices carefully based on budget and personal style and preference.

The homeowner needs to consider personal preference and appearance, along with some important factors to come up with a final choice:

You need to determine the floor usage; for example if you have kids flooring needs to be very durable and easy to clean. Consider your lifestyle in making your decision. White carpet or light wood tiles are not a good choice for the family room of a highly active and full house.

You might adore the way hardwood looks on your floor, but is it the right price for your budget. Your house will need measuring to calculate how much it will take to do the house and the cost before you can make an informed decision. Just make sure to add in any costs for installing the flooring, if it requires a professional installer.

The amount of sunlight and humidity in your house could cause a floor to become faded or damaged in other ways, and air vents may also cause an issue. Your decision does not have to be based solely on these things, but they need to be considered before you invest a lot of money into flooring.

While pricing, practicality or other restrictions may make a specific type of flooring unsuitable, there are many other options that may be just as agreeable but more suited to your lifestyle or home.

Flooring is very much a personal taste and style decor. Visit showrooms and flooring companies to see as many types of flooring as possible. Visualize the floor with your paint and furniture. Here are some options you have available to you; Carpet, Carpet Tile, Ceramic Tile, Stone, and Hardwood. Within each of these categories there are even more options for styles, colors, and looks.

Broadloom carpeting is a very affordable choice in home flooring. You can find this carpeting in a wide range for prices too, and this provides your some flexibility in making a decision.

Carpet is fairly easy to install, and if you're handy, you can even do it yourself. A carpet does require regular vacuuming as well as a full shampooing (at least) once a year.

Individual carpet tiles are installed on the floor in place to the wall-to-wall variety many times, because they are so simple. These tiles are also quite durable. Business often uses these tiles a lot and the selection is not as vast as the wall-to-wall is. However, flooring tiles like these are ideal for any room that sees a lot of use.

Ceramic tiles are an ideal choice for many reasons including versatility and durability. These tiles can go with most decorating themes, and come in a wide range of prices. They can be a bit chilly on bare feet though, but the tiles need very little maintenance aside from sweeping them and mopping them on a regular basis.

Hardwood adds a depth and warmth to a room's decor that's hard to achieve any other way; however, it's one of the more pricey options when it comes to home flooring. Hardwood is maintained with simple dusting, though it should be refinished every ten years or so to maintain its integrity. Do consider also that hardwood can be more easily scratched or damaged than other flooring options.

Your options are many. We suggest that you take your time and carefully consider all the possibilities in order to find something that will serve you well for years. Seek out professional guidance, check out showrooms and catalogs, see, feel, and try to experience the floor you are interested in laying down. Remember, it will look different in your room.
