Wood flooring are varied not just in the species of wood it is sourced from, but also in the types, finishes and thickness of the flooring. Wood species include oak wood, Brazilian cherry, birch, pine, walnut etc. Besides, you can choose from solid or engineered wood flooring, antique wood floors, factory finished floors and parquet flooring. The kind of materials and styles you choose will depend on your life style, the rest of the décor of the room and the area where you live. Almost all types of wood flooring that consists of one piece of wood are considered to be solid flooring. This flooring is perfect for rooms that are on or above ground level.

Hard wood floors are not as expensive as they used to be, and now come in competitively priced styles. Even so you may find them more expensive than other flooring options. Consider however, that your hard wood floor, with a little maintenance can last for the life time of the house, and the fact that a home with a wood floor sells quicker and at higher prices, and you begin to see the value of investing in a hard wood floor. Some basic steps ensure that your hardwood floor can last for years. Keep these golden rules in mind. Keep your wood floor away from water, and don't damp mop. Wipe spills as soon as they occur. If you have hard wood floor in the kitchen or just outside the bath room, place mats to absorb any spilt water. Always follow your manufacturers' recommendations for the cleaning of your floor. Never wax a wood floor, and place rugs and mats strategically near entrance ways and door ways to prevent dirt and grit from entering the house. Wear practical foot wear on your hard wood floor, and avoid pointy heels. These can actually exert immense pressure on your floor, causing denting and scratching. Vacuum regularly, but use a brush attachment and not a beater.
I would like to get a quote on installing hard wood floors in both my master bedroom and guest bedroom. The rest of the house has hardwood floors and I would like to match those two rooms to the wood in the entire house.
