When building a new home or renovating an existing home or commercial space many property owners tend to overlook hardwood flooring due to the fact that it is more expensive than carpet or other types of flooring. Although a hardwood floor in Florida may be more expensive than other flooring solutions there are many benefits that far outweigh the initial additional cost.
-
Lasts for decades: It can be expected that carpeting in a busy home will have to be replaced about every five or six years. After this time the stains and wear and tear render it worthless. With nothing more than routine maintenance, a hardwood floor not only lasts for years, the floor looks better as it ages.
-
Easy to clean: Hardwood floors are far easier to clean that a carpet. A light vacuuming or brushing is all it takes to keep hardwood floors looking great. If the dogs or kids come running in covered with mud, all it takes is a damp mop; try this if your floors are carpeted.
-
More hygienic: Carpets are natural breeding grounds for dust mites, fleas and they collect a great deal of hard to remove dust. All of these play havoc with those that suffer from an allergy. A hardwood floor in Florida eliminates this potential as well as the discomfort felt by those that suffer. Not only are hardwood floors more hygienic, they also are free from the unpleasant odors that get trapped in carpeting.
One advantage of a hardwood floor in Florida is the timeless appeal that wood has. Carpets, linoleum and tile all eventually go out of style; this is something that will never happen when you have hardwood floors installed in your home. The appeal of hardwood floors has lasted for centuries, it is not about to go away any time soon.
