Hardwood Flooring
Hardwood continues to be the most popular choice due to its great appearance and longer-lasting materials. Hardwood flooring is popular for its aesthetic as well as the many styles and color options. This flooring can be resurfaced around every four years and is a really good option for shared living spaces such as living rooms, dining rooms, and kitchens.
A few of the downsides to using hardwood flooring is that it can be much more expensive than other flooring options. Hardwood floors are also prone to accumulating scuffs, dents, and sometimes moisture.
The cost to install hardwood flooring ranges between $6 and 2 per square foot for the labor plus materials but can cost even more depending on the wood and design chosen.
Refinishing hardwood flooring costs between $3 to $8 per square foot.
Laminate Flooring
Laminate flooring also has many advantages and is a viable option if you don't think hardwood floors are for you. Laminate can come at a much lower cost than a hardwood flooring option. This is partially due to the cost difference in the material but also due to the fact that laminate is much easier to install. This flooring is also a durable and stylish option. There is a very large variety of colors and designs available for those who are interested in laminate flooring.
Again this flooring option also has some downfalls. Laminate can be susceptible to damage caused by moisture. This can be difficult to repair and isn't very ideal for places such as the bathroom or the kitchen.
