Did you just purchase a new house that would benefit from a few renovations? Or perhaps you’re renovating your home because it hasn’t been updated for quite some time. It’s also possible that you’re planning to make a few alterations because you want to put your house on the market. Whichever situation you’re in, chances are that you’re going to work closely with an interior design team.
Do you have carpet throughout your home? You may want to consider having it torn up and have wood flooring installed. If you already have a wood floor rather than another material under the carpet, then you may just need to have it sanded and refinished.
Have you been thinking about the type of wood flooring you would like installed? If you’re not sure what type of wood flooring you’d like, you may be interested to learn what other home owners recently purchased. A 2016 report showed that there were different types of hardwood floors that sold. White oak species accounted for 33% of sales and red oak species accounted for 32% of these sales. In terms of finishes, 35% were oil-modified and 49% were water-based.
Are you planning to put your house on the market? The National Wood Flooring Association found that 99% of realtors believe that it’s easier to sell a home with hardwood floors. Furthermore, the National Association of Realtors has estimated that when homes have hardwood floors, 54% of potential buyers are actually willing to pay more for a house with this popular feature.
Do you plan to work with an interior design team? If so, they will inform you that repeating one or more elements within specific rooms or the entire house is a key principle of good design. That said, you may want to consider having one or more wood accent walls. In addition to wood walls in kitchen areas, you may also want to consider a wood accent wall in bedroom and a wood accent wall living room.
Accent wall wood is available in a variety of styles. Furthermore, you can choose from accent wall wood in real hardwood or manufactured and engineered wood. Given this, there are so many styles and textures from which to choose, such as wood plank wall paneling.
Once you’ve conferred with your interior design team, you’ll be able to find just the right type of flooring and accent wall wood for your house. While you may not be ready to sell your home just yet, remember that when you make these renovations that it will bring you a solid return on your investment.
