Wooden flooring enhances the décor of any room, and provides timeless
beauty that will increase in value throughout the years.
In a study conducted
by the
United States National Wood Flooring Association among real estate agents, 90
percent said that houses with wood flooring sell faster and for higher prices
than houses without wooden floors.
Locally, one just has to look at the property
advertisements in newspapers to substantiate this claim – agents always
mention when a house has timber flooring.
That means it is a good investment.
Its durability also offers value in that hardwood flooring can last a lifetime
and does not have to be replaced every few years like carpets.
Maintenance of today’s wood floors is easy. New technology in stains and
finishes call for regular cleaning that takes little more than sweeping and/or
vacuuming, with occasional use of a professional wood floor-cleaning product.
Wood is a hygroscopic material, which means it has a regulating effect on the
humidity of a room. It also has great isolating characteristics, which is especially
useful in those cold winter months.
Not only will your wooden floor prevent the
cold concrete from chilling the entire room, it will also retain heat much longer
and better than tiles.
Because wood does not collect dust and other allergens, many leading health associations
agree that wood floors are the perfect choice for a healthy home.
Additionally
the sealants used are free of any toxic or harmful substances thus not posing
any adverse health effects.
Furthermore our manufacturers have received ISO 14001 Environmental Management
System Certification.
Wood floors have come a long way in the past few years. Today, there are more
styles, colours and species of wood flooring available than ever before.
Whether you’re looking for traditional exotic and dark Brazilian Walnut,
traditional Oak, trendy Bamboo or beautiful Okan, you’re sure to find
a colour and style to fit your décor.
