The beauty of wooden flooring
The smooth texture and beautiful appearance of natural wooden flooring is the perfect solution for practically any decorating scheme. Whether you are going for a traditional country look, or a contemporary theme, the timeless appeal of wood will add warmth and elegance to any home. And the benefits don’t end there:
· Good quality wooden floors last for decades. With a minimal maintenance programme, these floors actually look better as the years go by.
· Wood flooring is more hygienic than carpets; they don't attract bugs and mites, trap dust or other allergens, so are ideal for allergy or asthma sufferers and pet owners.
· Wood floors are easier to clean than carpets. A simple brush or light vacuum keeps your wooden floors looking great. If dogs or children have dragged mud through the house a damp mop removes this muck with ease.
· The way your house smells is so important. Whereas some flooring can trap in unpleasant odours, the aroma of a polished wooden floor is a delight and will make your home more inviting.
· Wood provides a great medium to install underfloor heating, which is the most efficient way to heat your house.
· If after a few years your wood floor has been scratched or is a bit damaged due to heavy wear and tear, a simple sand and seal will bring it back to new again.
· Timeless appeal, whereas other floor types or designs go in and out of fashion, wood appeal has lasted centuries and is an extremely popular design.
