Will Hardwood Work for My Home?
If you are wondering if hardwood is a good choice for your home or not, the answer is yes. While there are certain specifications for solid hardwood flooring in your West Palm Beach, FL home, you can easily work them into your space.
Humidity, dampness and temperature changes can often cause your West Palm Beach, FL hardwood flooring to expand and contract. Because of this, you might notice a gap around the edges of the installed flooring, which is there for this very reason. It will give the hardwood ample space for these movements, without allowing the floor to split or buckle, as some improperly installed hardwood floors in West Palm Beach, FL can do.
Remember to use area rugs or carpet runners to both accent and protect your hardwood floor. They can help keep dirt and debris from scratching your floor?s surface and shortening its lifespan.
For your West Palm Beach, FL home, hardwood flooring should never be installed in basement areas. We also strongly discourage using them in bathrooms, laundry rooms and any other room that is likely to experience more water issues than others. Aside from that, hardwood will look spectacular in just about any other room of your home.
