Why choose hardwood flooring?

Did you know hardwood flooring is one of the most sought after hard surface flooring in remodeling or new construction? There are many reasons and great benefits as to why hardwood flooring is the best option for you.

Affordability

WoodCo offers many flooring options to match your price budget. Here, you will walk away with a floor you love at a price you want. Not only is hardwood flooring affordable, but it will also add lifetime value to your property. Wood floors increase in value as your home does. More bang for your buck!

Durability

Personally, I have both hardwood floors and carpet and I love my hardwood floors more than I love my carpet. If one of my kids or even an adult spills anything on my carpet, I have to run and get my carpet cleaner immediately. If I don’t do so, I’m left with a big stain on my dusk carpet. And who loves to see that? Hardwood floors, depending on your species, can withstand anything. Kids, adults, beverages and food. That is pretty amazing.

Environmentally Friendly

From nature to your home, hardwood floors are the perfect environmentally friendly alternative. Especially if you decide to use reclaimed wood. All hardwood floors come from a natural resource that is sustainably grown. Most timbers are cut from forests that are carefully managed to ensure continued resources in the future. In fact, there are more standing hardwood trees today then there were 50 years ago.

Healthier Option

More than 50 million Americans suffer from allergies each year from allergens such as pet dander, dust mites, pollen and mold. Hardwood flooring will not harbor any dust mites or mold creating a better air quality for all inhabitants. The hard surface of the wood helps reduce the accumulation of toxins in your area keeping you allergy free and toxin free in your own space.

The Look

Lastly, the look of hardwood floors brings sophisticated elegance to any room. WoodCo offers different types of species: anything from Walnut to Hickory, Long Leaf Pine to French White Oak and so much more. Whether you want to bring out the color in your walls with a darker floor or you want a nice prefinished lighter floor, you will find what you are looking for here at WoodCo. Hardwood floors will always outlast carpet floors and in the end will save money, time and leave your home with a beautiful touch for years to come!
