Choosing a Hardwood Floor

Posted on September 4, 2012 by flooramerica123

Not only are hardwood floors beautiful, but they also increase the value of your home. There are many hardwood flooring types in a variety of colors and finishes. However, many people struggle with choosing a wood floor that fits the style of their home while providing the look they want. Here are some popular hardwood flooring options that may help make your decision a little bit easier.

Maple hardwood floors are a popular choice due to their beauty and durability. Offering timeless style and visual depth, maple works well in a variety of traditional and modern settings. Maple floors are available in a variety of shades that bring out the beautiful swirls and subtle grain for which this wood is known.

Oak continues to be the most common wood floor in North America. Oak offers distinctive wood grain patterns and is a popular choice for traditional settings. Oak is highly resistant to scratches and dents, making it a good choice for high-traffic areas.

Similar to oak, ash hardwood floors offer a unique look. Ash floors are extremely dense and durable, making them a popular choice in dining rooms. Light colored ash floors are very desirable, and range from light blonde to darker cream-colored tones. Ash floors are popular in a variety of settings, from beach houses to rustic lofts.

Walnut floors offer rich, chocolate tones and complex grain patterns. In the last few years, walnut has increased in popularity due to its unique color and blended brown shades. The details and textures in walnut flooring look elegant in formal environments, as the wood tends to get darker as it matures.

Tile Flooring That Looks Like Wood

Posted on August 21, 2012 by flooramerica123

Hardwood floors provide an elegant look to any interior. With the variety of colors, styles, and types available, it’s no wonder that hardwood flooring
continues to be one of the most popular flooring choices today. Easy to maintain, this natural and ageless flooring option provides natural warmth and
beauty that can last for generations.

In many homes, hardwood flooring has been limited to living rooms and bedrooms. However, many tile manufacturers are now creating tiles that mimic the
appearance of wood. These tiles offer several advantages for homeowners looking to add the wood look into other areas of their home:

Wood flooring can expand or warp when exposed to water. Tile flooring resists moisture, allowing it to be an ideal choice for kitchens, bathrooms,
and laundry rooms.
Tile flooring stays cool, which makes wood tiles a great choice for those that live in warmer climates. In areas with high humidity, wood-look tiles
are also a popular choice.
Tile flooring is a popular choice for those with pets and children, providing maximum durability. With tiles that appear to be wood, the scratches
and nicks common to hardwood flooring are a thing of the past.
Bring the look of wood outside with these versatile tiles. Since tile flooring resists moisture, it is an ideal choice around pools, decks, and
patios.

Visit your local Flooring America store today to discover a variety of tile options. With such a vast selection, it’s easy to choose a floor that fits both
your lifestyle and your budget!

Carpet Trends for Your Home

Posted on August 14, 2012 by flooramerica123

The right carpet can dramatically change the look of a room. This year, carpet trends are leaning towards a bold look, but there are also many neutral
options that can provide understated style in your home. Here are some of the hottest trends available right now at your Flooring America:

Colors.
Bold colors are making a statement on floors everywhere. Bright red and rose colored tones have been a popular choice in living rooms, while a variety
of blue and green shades have provided a softer look to bedrooms. Choose a shade that matches your own style and personality to accent your furniture,
accessories, and artwork.
Texture.
To provide visual interest to neutral shades, many designers are choosing textured carpet styles. Textured carpet provides an extra dimension to floors
and adds subtle elegance to your space. Textured carpet also helps camouflage footprints, making it a great choice for high traffic areas.
Patterns.
Patterned carpet is a popular choice for busy rooms. The look of daily wear-and-tear is often minimized with a modern striped or tone-on-tone abstract
style. Coordinate the pattern of your carpet with any patterns you already have in your room for a cohesive look.

At Flooring America, we suggest that you take carpet samples home of any style or color that you are considering. We want you to see exactly how that
particular flooring will look in your home. Contact us today to see how different colors, patterns, and textures can create a new look in your home and
help refresh your existing space.
