BACK PAGE STORY
Today’s homeowners are more invested than ever in keeping
their homes updated by el- evating their style and tak- ing on projects ranging from bringing in fresh new paint colors to serious bathroom or kitchen renovations.
Alongside these home updates is the trend of re- thinking flooring and return- ing to the foundational roots of hardwood.
“Hardwood floors are one of the best investments you can make in your home,” says Jen Meska, director of merchandising for LL Floor- ing. “Hardwood floors are a timeless home décor choice that brings warmth, luxury
and comfort underfoot and are made to last genera- tions.”
Check out these three reasons why hardwood is an excellent choice for your next home renovation.
1. WHERE CLASSIC STYLE MEETS VALUE
With hundreds of years of history to its name, the natural beauty of hardwood never goes out of style. As the floor covering of choice for countless generations around the globe, hardwood became a popular and re- liable choice for flooring in the U.S. during the late 1800s, according to Wood Floor Business Magazine.
While many homes to- day feature vinyl and car- pet, which rose in popular- ity in the 1950s, you’ll still find older homes with the original hardwood flooring. However, they might be hid- ing under a layer of dusty wall-to-wall carpeting.
Investing in a hardwood floor also adds value to your home. According to realtor. com, installing hardwood floors can boost the value of your home by as much as 2.5%, and you can pos- sibly see a 70%-80% return on investment.
2. LIFELONG BEAUTY
There are several reasons why hardwood continues
to be a popular flooring choice. Beyond their natural beauty and organic design, hardwood floors are strong, versatile and easy to clean.
Hardwood also enhanc- es the aesthetic appeal of your home and is likely one of the first things someone will notice when they step inside. Not only does it make your home feel effortlessly elegant and welcoming, but it also adds natural warmth to any space.
Another advantage is the wide variety of hardwood floors, so you can pick the color and design that best suits your current style or set the tone for any interior decorating renovations. LL
Flooring’s hardwood collec- tion features several species in different colors, finishes and plank widths. The as- sortment includes oak, maple, mahogany, Brazilian cherry, hickory and more to suit any taste. And you can choose from solid hard- wood or engineered hard- wood, depending on your flooring needs.
3. BUILT TO LAST
With proper care, hard- wood floors can last a life- time. Due to its reliability
and longevity, LL Flooring confidently offers a 100-year transferable warranty on its Bellawood hardwood line, ensuring that your flooring is covered for generations.
