Hardwood

One of the classiest options for your home may be to install hardwood floors.

Hardwood floors are easy to deal with and clean and add an elegant look to your interior design. If you ever choose to move out of the home, the value will go up because of the hardwood floors.

The downside of hardwood is how easily it can be scratched and can also buckle if too much water spills on it.

Carpet

Carpet is not great for all rooms in your house but can be a good option for playrooms or bedrooms. Many people add carpet to their homes if they know a room will run a bit colder. Carpet adds warmth to any room it is in.

When choosing a carpet, there are many options and looks. Depending on the look you want in your home, you will be able to adapt the type of carpet to each specific room.

Laminate

Laminate flooring comes in so many different styles or finishes. Whichever finish you choose, its elegance brings a luxury feel into your home.

Laminate floors are also very durable, resistant to scratching, stains, and furniture scuffs.

This budget-friendly option is great for an easy fix to your floors. It is meant to interlock into each other and can even be laid over old floors to avoid any construction and installment messes.

Ceramic Tile or Vinyl Tile

Deciding between vinyl vs ceramic tile is not an easy decision, but both are popular types of flooring for homes.

Ceramic tile is one of the most versatile types of flooring because it comes in different colors, sizes, shapes, and shades. Ceramic tile is made out of clay and is extremely durable against scratches.

Using ceramic tile in wet areas is smart because it is moisture resistant and a budget-friendly option.

Vinyl flooring is made of PVC plastic and comes in pre-cut squares between 9 and 18 inches. There are a few different types of vinyl flooring to match the look of your home. This tile option is one of the cheapest for your homes.
