When making a decision on the best type of solid wood floor for your family home, there is so much to consider. Trying to select the perfect wooden flooring for homes with children or pets makes it all the more difficult. There are so many things to consider when choosing products that you deem safe for children along with being practical, hard wearing, whilst still improving your homes appearance.
At JG Flooring we can help you to choose the perfect solid wood floor if you have children or pets. The most important factor when deciding on a suitable flooring is the type of finish and with this there are 2 finishes to consider.
Varnished Solid Wood Floor
Wooden flooring with a polyurethane varnish finish is one of the most durable and hardest of finishes available. This flooring will withstand the anything that you kids or pets could possibly do. This type of wooden flooring will protect against things being dropped or spilled on the floor. No more cringing when your child drags a toy box or throws cars across the floor, or when you pet comes bounding in with their sharp nails sliding across the floor. Speak to an adviser at JG Flooring and we will advice on the most family friendly wooden flooring that will suit your home.
De-stressed Wooden Flooring
The current trend in hard wood flooring designs is the distressed look. This means that the flooring will already have dents, scratches and worn areas to achieve the old distressed rustic look. This type of solid wood flooring obviously has to suit the home and surroundings but where kids and pets are concerned, the more wear, scratches and dents that they do to the floor, the more character it will give it.
