Top 3 Reasons you need wood floors in your house…
There are many reasons why wood floors have so many advantages. Let's look at 3 main reasons:
Number 1 reason to have wood floors in your house for me is allergy symptoms. You may not even realize how many little things all your carpet has crawling around in it. Things that may be driving your eyes or your nose a little crazy.
Dust mites are the biggest thing I can think of that is all over carpet and made my allergies go crazy. Wood floors almost eliminate all allergens and are much easier to clean and maintain more on cleaning a little later. When your wood floors are sanded and refinished you shouldn’t have any dust mites around and you are well on your way to be dust mite free. Some other things you can do are getting rid of your curtains and just use blinds because they are easy to wipe down and don’t hold as much dust.
Number 2 reason. You should have a wood floor is because they are so easy to clean and maintain.
I love dogs not to fond of cats because I AM ALERGIC to them but that’s another article.
About those dogs see I had two puppies at once for my first pet or should I say pets. Not the smartest thing I ever did. Now that I am thinking about my life it was certainly not my last stupid thing either. Anyway I had carpet where I lived and fast forward 10 years later I think if that carpet was still down the pee would still not be totally dry.
Just imagine you are watching a movie you let your puppy lay at your feet and you get rapped up in the movie and the little guy gets up lets it loose. You have to get a paper towel and a shoe if you have none on and step on the pee to absorb it into the paper towel. What a nightmare and you never get all the pee up. It sits under the carpet and the padding for long time staying as smelly as ever.
Wood floors you can just wipe up and liquid and not worry as far as carpet goes you will be waiting a very long time for the smell to go away hopefully you don’t have a lot of puppy pee to deal with.
Number 3 reason. You can always change the look and feel of any room with wood floors installed. They can be changed as much as 16 times as far as the color goes and the shine of the finish used. With other flooring material once you have it down that’s it. See you had to deal with the discomfort of your housed turned upside down depending on how much of your flooring is getting done. You had a huge expense to pay and you can never change the mood of the room unless you get everything ripped out and you start fresh.
Wood floors can always be re sanded and refinished to match changing times or to change the mood of your room. Lets say you just purchased a house you can change the wood floors by sanding them and resatining them the color that you want. This will be less expensive then purchasing new material and then paying for that material to be installed.
You have to figure that what ever you paid per foot for the material you will pay for labor. Say 2.50 a foot for basic Pergo material you will get an installer to start his price at 2.50 a foot. I hope I help you in your decision on what type of floor you will get in your house.
