The Essential Guide To Choosing The Perfect Flooring For Every Room

Your  San Ramon, CA floors are the unsung heroes of the home. They not only have a major impact on the way that each room looks, but they get plenty of abuse on a constant basis. Foot traffic from family members, guests, and pets combined with spills, furniture scrapes, and more will all have a big impact on the overall lifespan of your floors – and of course, the flooring you choose can actually impact your mood – color alone plays a role in 60 percent of our emotional response to a room. 

But what kind of flooring do you need to choose when it’s time to select the perfect flooring for any occasion? This is harder to determine than some might realize, but if you’ll keep a few basic points in mind it should be no problem for you to find the right flooring.  

With that in mind, let’s take a quick look at some of the main things to consider when it comes to choosing your San Ramon home’s flooring.  

• For mudrooms, entrance areas, and other places that get lots of traffic and where mud and dirt are regularly tracked in, you’ll want to invest in easy to clean flooring. Stay away from carpet and go for tile when possible. It’s easy to maintain and clean, and dirt or mud will wipe right up.  

• For children’s room, you need something soft but that is also able to stand up to plenty of use. Tightly woven carpet is a great option and will give your kids a soft play area while also being some of the easiest to clean. Nylon fabric is a common and excellent choice. 

• For a bedroom that you want to enjoy and feel warm and cozy in, choose premium plush, soft carpet. Hardwood flooring is a great option as well, but if you pair it with a rug you’ll be able to still feel great.  

• Offices or guest rooms are another room you’ll have to consider carefully. Hardwood is good here too, and a tightly woven or flat-weave rug can help ‘tie the room together’. Low pile carpets are another good choice and avoiding plush, thick weaves are good since the room will get plenty of use.  

• Finally, if you’re looking for maximum style, your best option will almost certainly be to go with hardwood flooring. This is especially true when it’s a high-traffic area since you can keep it clean, the hardwood will stand up to plenty of abuse and use, and will still age well.  

All in all, the fact is that there is no single floor that works perfectly for every room. Think about each room of your home and what you need, then think about the points above. It should make it easier to find the perfect flooring for every room in the home.
