For an easy way to freshen up worn rooms and increase the value of your home, look below. Flooring may not be the first thing you think of when looking for a quick update, but new carpeting or flooring can give your home an amazing new appeal. Whether you want to invest in new carpet, laminate, vinyl, wood, or another material, renovated flooring is a great way to breathe new life into the look and style of your home. For big impact and higher value, make sure new flooring is at the top of the list for potential home renovations.
Nobody wants to spend money on the house they are preparing to sell, but it can be crucial to sell the house quickly and at an optimal price. The good news for homeowners and real estate agents is that there are many styles to choose from, and carpet professionals know the best styles to help sell a home. They can be the link between fresh clean carpets and a reasonable price.
Therefore, for homes with old or stained carpets, carpet replacement or the installation of new flooring should be considered before placing them on the market. Or, for homeowners not looking to sell their home anytime soon, new flooring is a great way to instantly update the overall look and feel of the home and give it a whole new style. Stained or dated carpet can not only be a huge turnoff for potential buyers, but for the business and visitors as well. And a fresh, new carpet or floor is even more important when selling an empty property, as that’s all buyers see in an empty room. No cracked linoleum or pet stained carpet.
Consider updating outdated flooring patterns with new laminate or vinyl. Many professional home remodelers are now incorporating non-traditional geometric shapes, in place of the standard squares and rectangular tiles in newer homes. Completely remodeling an older home with new flooring is the best way to give it the coveted mix of old and new. Tell a creative story and add new texture and definition to any room in your home with a variety of styles and textures.
The styling possibilities are endless! Take an ‘OK’ house and turn it into an ‘amazing’ house in one step; New floors.
