Flooring in Northumberland

Although there are many different types of floor covering in use in the world today, the floor covering that is most widely regarded for its beauty and timelessness is hardwood flooring. There are many reasons why hardwood flooring is ranked above the rest in terms of classic elegance and aesthetic appeal, and here are just a few of those reasons:

Age-Old Style
People around the world have been using hardwood for their floors for hundreds of years, but in the last century, carpeting has become for more popular in the Western world. Now that the use of carpeting has become so common, wooden flooring is far more evocative of antique, traditional styles of decor or it can be used to bring about a really modern, fresh look. When teamed up with lots of wooden or reclaimed style (e.g. apothecary table) furniture, this type of flooring produces a classic, elegant, timeless style.

Versatile
It is possible to use wooden flooring to create a wide range of different looks, depending on the rest of the decor in your room. Hardwood floors can be teamed up with a white and sky blue color scheme to create a nautical or sea-side theme, or they can be teamed with warm, deep colors and animal skin rugs to create a cozy cabin type feel.

Lots of Variety
There are lots of different types of hardwood available to purchase, including ash, cherry, hickory, maple, oak and walnut. All of these woods have a slightly different look and feel to them, so if will be easy to find a wood that you feel happy with. There are also a wide range of different stains and finishes available, so that you can change the look of your hardwood flooring, without changing your flooring completely. With so many beautiful types of wood to choose from, it is hard to resist!

Gets Better With Age
Unlike carpeting and tiles, flooring in Northumberland can actually end up looking better with age! Once they have been worn in for a few years, hardwood floorboards can develop a stunning aged look, which can give your room a brilliant vintage feel. On the other hand, carpet begins to look old, tired and worn. For this reason, along with their general strength and durability (wooden floors can last for generations!) hardwood flooring is often seen as an investment, and what could be more beautiful than something that makes money for you, without you having to do anything at all!
