When it comes to flooring, there seems to endless amounts of choices from natural hardwoods to carpeting. You might find yourself stuck on which is the perfect choice for your home, and the entire process can seem incredibly daunting and stressful. When choosing the best flooring for a specific room, consider the following:
What’s the size of the room and how much foot traffic does the floor receive? If you have children or pets, this is also insightful data to keep in mind.
For kitchens and bathrooms, it’s best to choose flooring that is durable enough to withstand spills. Flooring with easy to clean surfaces is the perfect choice for these specific rooms.
Living rooms and family rooms all boil down to personal preference. Some people love the rustic and warm look of hardwood, but families may opt for carpet because of the softness and comfort that comes with carpeting. Again, it’s important to consider the amount of traffic the room receives.
It’s important to choose flooring that you will love for years to come! Consider choosing flooring that is classic and will remain stylish and pristine for many years. For kitchens and bathrooms, it’s best to budget your purchase on the higher end, as these rooms often require extremely durable flooring.

There’s a lot to consider when choosing flooring. We put laminate in our kitchen and living room last fall and I love it!
its hard to choose flooring. we just ordered flooring for our breezeway-0 its taken us 6 weeks to decide….and we knew what KIND just not what color/style
There are so many options; it really can be confusing.
Another thing to factor in is cost. We’re trying to decide between new floors or just refinishing our current ones.
We’re looking at homes and I love how people are going back to hardwoods. So much easier to clean than carpet.
OMG that was such a mission for us when we bought our home! We wanted wood floors but the maintenance would be high compared to tiles.
We are choosing our flooring now!
I can definitely see how overwhelming the process can be. Nice to have a few tips!
