6 Things to Consider When Choosing Flooring

Sep 11, 2024

Choosing new flooring for your remodel can be exciting but requires careful consideration. With so many options, it’s essential to balance style, durability, and budget. Here’s a streamlined guide to help you choose the right flooring:

 

  1. Assess Your Needs
  2. Traffic & Durability: For high-traffic areas or homes with kids and pets, consider durable, easy-to-clean options like waterproof laminate or vinyl plank flooring.
  3. Comfort: Carpeting works well in living rooms and bedrooms, offering softness and cushioning underfoot.
  4. Moisture Resistance: For bathrooms and basements, opt for moisture-resistant choices like tile or luxury vinyl tile (LVT).
  5. Maintenance: Hardwood may need refinishing, while vinyl and stain-resistant carpets are easier to maintain.

 

  1. Set a Budget

Flooring prices vary, from budget-friendly laminate and vinyl to luxury options like hardwood and Karastan carpet. Don’t forget to include installation and future maintenance costs. At Atiyeh Bros., we provide detailed bids after measuring your space, so you know exactly what to expect. We offer a wide variety of flooring selections that vary widely in pricing. Right now all Karastan products are on Sale (September 19th, 2024 – October 31st, 2024).

  1. Evaluate Flooring Types
  2. Hardwood: Timeless and value-enhancing but sensitive to moisture. Consider engineered hardwood for added durability.
  3. Carpet: Ideal for warmth in bedrooms and family rooms.
  4. Laminate: Offers wood or stone aesthetics at a lower price.
  5. Vinyl Plank (LVP): Water-resistant and budget-friendly, perfect for kitchens and bathrooms.
  6. Tile: Durable and easy to clean, a solid choice for high-use areas like kitchens.

 

  1. Consider Design

Flooring plays a major role in setting your space’s tone. Light floors can make a room feel spacious, while darker tones add warmth and elegance.

  1. Test Samples

Test samples in your home under different lighting to ensure they match your furniture and decor.

  1. Professional Installation vs. DIY

Some flooring requires professional installation, while laminate and vinyl can be DIY-friendly. Factor in the cost of tools and potential mistakes if you choose to install it yourself.
