Advantages of solid wood flooring
As already mentioned, solid wood flooring is extremely durable and is able to survive decades of wear and traffic with only the minimum amount of evidence to show for it. Depending on which type of solid flooring you choose, a solid wood floor can last for generations. Lapacho wood for example is one of the hardest available woods in the world and holds a hardiness rating of 3684 in the Janka Hardiness Scale. This is 177% harder than the benchmark hardiness rating and is a brilliant wood for floors that expect heavy duty wear throughout their lifetime. As solid wood flooring has flourished throughout all rooms of the house, it is also important to get right type of wood for rooms with high moisture levels. This makes solid wood flooring an extremely versatile option for any area of the house, with certain woods and options being available for a huge variety of needs.
The great news is that thanks to the continued popularity and hardiness of solid wood flooring, the material makes a fantastic investment for your home. Solid wood floors make a huge difference to the appearance of any home and actually increase the value of your household.. Another great bonus of solid wood flooring is the ease and pleasure of maintaining them. A well looked after floor is a happy floor, and with solid wood flooring, looking after your floor is as easy as ABC. Besides frequent sweeps and mops, it is also a good idea to occasionally lay that extra bit of protective oil to make sure that your floor maintains its beautiful veneer for years to come. Also, depending on what type of solid wood you choose, some materials actually become more beautiful and elegant as they mature. Woods such as Cherry wood and Kempas Wood often become more defined and elegant as they age, with their grain and luxurious swirls becoming more defined as they continue their service to your home. You may also be interested to know that solid wood flooring is also a more hygienic flooring option for your home compared to carpets.
