Not all flooring is the same. Among all the different choices, sometimes it can be hard to decide what flooring is right for you. Let’s take a look at some of the most common types of flooring installation in Barrie and area homes.
LVP: LVP (Luxury Vinyl Plank) is one of the most common types of flooring. These flooring planks are scratch-resistant, thick and waterproof. LVP is a good choice for high-traffic rooms, especially those prone to staining, such as kitchens.
Hardwood: One of the more expensive and aesthetic flooring options. Hardwood provides a beautiful floor finish that provides an old-world feel to any home. Although it is not as scratch-resistant or water-resistant as LVP, it has an unbeatable antique look, is easy to clean and very durable.
Laminate: A thinner, less waterproof option, laminate flooring is a good choice for living rooms, halls, and dining rooms. You may want a more waterproof floor for your bathrooms and/or kitchens, but for the rest of your home, laminate flooring can provide a stone-like look that is more budget-friendly. In addition, its scratch resistance is perfect for homes with pets and children.
Tile: A common flooring type, usually chosen for bathrooms and kitchens. Tile flooring provides a long lasting and durable floor option for homeowners that can also be customized to your style preferences. With a wide range of prices, there is a tile option for everyone.
Standard Vinyl: As one of the least expensive flooring options, vinyl is thinner and more affordable than LVP. Because it is waterproof, it is often a good option for most rooms in a home. Standard vinyl flooring will have a shorter lifespan than LVP as well, but comes at a lower average price.
The 3 factors to keep in mind when choosing your floor are budget, purpose, and appearance. For example, if you’re a homeowner looking for a rustic, dog-friendly floor for your living room or a modern-looking, low-maintenance floor for your kitchen. There’s a floor for everyone, and whichever floor all three of these will be the right option for you and your home!
