Hardwood is still the gold standard for home values. Buyers love it because of the timeless appeal, long lifespan, and certain thickness can be refinished multiple times. While it may come with a higher upfront cost than other flooring options, hardwood continues to be one of the smartest long-term investments a homeowner can make.
A woman walked into our showroom and her husband wanted luxury vinyl flooring and she wanted hardwood. She won the battle on hardwood vs. lvp not because of pricing or batting of the eye, but because she said the right words. "Honey this is an investment and will increase our home value, especially if we sell it in 3-4 years." From the demand to durability to resale performance, hardwood flooring consistently delivers value that few materials can match.
It consistently increases a home value because homeowners know it costs more than most flooring. People choose hardwood over carpeted or even tiled homes- in the real estate market because hardwood is not a luxury, but an expectation.
Trends change, but hardwood flooring stays the same. Strong, dependable, gorgeous color variations and much much more. Hardwood floors create a sense of natural beauty, elegance, warmth and give the perception of luxury.
Some common myths about hardwood is that it's too fragile; however, modern finishes are highly durable.
It's not kid-friendly; however, when choosing the proper finish it can be scratch resistant.
It's not pet-friendly; however, certain species of hardwood with the correct finish can be scratch resistant for our furry family members.
When families have pets or allergies they steer clear of carpet and choose hardwood because it's easier to collect a dust bunny when it's on top of the floor instead of buried in carpet strands.
Which Hardwood Flooring Customer are YOU? When you're in the market for hardwood floors there are three types of people.
