You will hear from a lot of people that engineered wood flooring is much better than carpet in every way, but what would convince you to make the switch. You existing carpet may still look and feel good, so what would encourage you to reconsider your flooring?
Wooden Flooring is easy to clean
When compared to carpet, which holds in dust and dirt, engineered wood flooring is much easier to maintain and keep clean. You can literally see the dirt, dust, and grit on the surface, there is no hiding under the piles of material. After a short amount of time, carpet will begin to discolour, flatten and hold dirt. Your vacuum cleaner will remove dust and dirt but will not bring back the original deep pile. With the build up of dirt and grime in your carpet, you will find that odours will begin to rise from the fibres which are also quite difficult to remove.
Busy homes with lots of traffic will find that carpets quickly become tired and worn. Food and liquid spillages occur often along with mess and hair build up from pets that you can’t see. If you have matching carpet throughout your home, you will find that you will never get a match if you a replacing carpet in individual rooms.
Engineered Wood Flooring is extremely low maintenance. Any spillages from liquid or food can easily be removed and cleaned without leaving anything behind. Pet hair can easily be seen and swept away. Wood flooring is also ideal for anyone with dust allergies as any dust can easily be swept or vacuumed from the surface.
Engineered Wood Flooring looks better
There is no comparison, wooden flooring simply looks better than carpet. If you wish to break up the floor with a rug, you can do this to match your colour scheme and easily change as your colours change. Much to many misconceptions, wooden flooring can be fitted in any room if done professionally.
