How to Choose the Right Wood Floor for Your Home
Choosing the right wood floor can be overwhelming — but it doesn’t need to be. Here’s a straight-talking guide to help you pick the best option for your home based on use, look, and practicality.
Things to Think About
Engineered vs Solid: Engineered is more stable and great for underfloor heating. Solid suits older homes or smaller areas.
Finish Type: Oil gives a more natural feel. Lacquer offers more protection.
Board Width & Layout: Wide planks feel calm and modern. Herringbone or parquet adds character.
Lifestyle: Pets, kids, and shoes-in or shoes-off households all matter.
Popular Styles
Warm oak planks for living areas
Durable LVT for kitchens or high-traffic homes
Herringbone for hallways and front rooms
Rustic boards for period homes and cottages
