Kitchen remodeling services can often be bonding experiences for couples and families and increase their appreciation for their space and their relationship. Working with a budget, wants and desires, and endless options of countertops, paint colors, appliances, and layouts can be a thrill that eventually gets put in motion. Much of this process starts from the ground up, with the floors. Here are three benefits to having a hardwood floor installation.

Appearance

Linoleum and tile have begun to go out of style, particularly in kitchens. We've all seen pictures of sleek kitchens and shiny countertops, many of which have modern hardwood floors. Hardwood flooring makes your home look more expensive and more contemporary, and therefore increases its value when you go to sell, especially given that its color won't fade. These floors also retain their elegant appearance, as they cannot be stained easily; messes wipe right off.

Maintenance

Hardwood floor refinishing leaves you with a kitchen floor that can be cleaned effortlessly. Sweep or vacuum, neither will take you more than a couple of minutes. These floors also contribute to better air quality in your home, particularly if present in multiple rooms. With more wood floors, fewer stains, spills, and pet conditions will linger and cause trouble in your home. This results in fresher air, better smells, and a general sense of a clean living environment.

Temperature

Although a hardwood floor installation may trick your mind into being more comfortable in the space, and therefore feel warmer, they are physically warmer as well. Many people report hardwood floors are warmer for their feet than linoleum or tile, which is particularly chilly. According to Hardwood Floors Magazine, two-thirds of people say that their dream homes possess hardwood floors, including 81% of those who already have them installed in their current homes. The transformative effect of hardwood floors on your kitchen's appearance and your own mental satisfaction is massive.
