don’t depreciate. Carpet is replaced
three to six times before most solid wood
floors need repair. Wood floors cost less
in the long term and add value to your home.

design appeal. Who doesn't enjoy the beauty

in wood floors now than ever before.
Wood is Easy to Maintain With
Fewer Cleaning Chemicals
All you need is a swivel mop and sometimes
a non-aerosol spray you can clean a wood
floor in less than half the time it takes
to vacuum, scrub or shampoo other floor
coverings. Wood flooring doesn't trap dust
and fumes in the fibers or grow mold in
the grout, very important for allergies!
Wood floors in your main living areas can
improve air quality, according to the American
Lung Association and cleaning a wood floor
requires fewer chemicals than carpet or
tile cleaning.
Wood Floors Absorb Shock
Doctors recommend wood floring for your
spine and joints. Wood gives slightly, making
it easier on your legs and feet.
Hardwood is Green!
Wood manufacturing is much cleaner than
the manufacture of other building materials.
Wood sends less solid waste to the landfill
than manufacturing the same product in either
steel or concrete. Because of it's superior
insulating properties, wood is more energy-efficient.
It takes 15 inches of concrete to equal
the insulation qualities of just 1 inch
of wood.
