Top Hardwood Flooring in Trends
While carpet may still be the flooring of choice
in a lot of homes, the amount of homes that are
installing hardwood floors has risen over the
last 5-10 years and continues to grow today. If
you are looking to add genuine resale value and
even more importantly, beauty to your home,
installing hardwood flooring is the answer.
The hardwood installed in most homes until the
last few years have been 2 ¼ inch solid hardwood,
usually oak. That is changing. Today, the size,
species and color palette for todays homeowner
has grown dramatically.

Wide Plank

• Homeowners are definitely moving away from the
  traditional 2 ¼ inch hardwoods. 3 ¼ inch, 5
  inch, even 7 inch wide planks are rapidly gaining
  in popularity. If you want to make your living
  space more modern, go with a wider plank, even
  consider doing your floors with wood of varied
  widths. Wide planks add depth to a room, making
  it feel larger, rustic and contemporary.

Dark Hardwood

• And when we say dark, we mean dark. Ebony and
  jacobean are popular stains along with espresso.
  The deep color is a contemporary and classic look
  that offsets light decor beautifully. The dark
  color can be more difficult to clean and maintain
  since it shows scratches more easily, but on the
  other hand, it camouflages imperfections better.

Gray Hardwood

• Gray has been popping up all over interior design
  trends, in magazine ads and in showrooms. It is
  the new neutral, but it is so different and
  unexpected that it is having a harder time
  gaining a foothold especially in the flooring
  market in our region. People want to see it, but
  usually will turn back to more traditional wood
  colors.

6
Whitewashed

• Whitewashed finishes are not the same as the
  whitewashed fences and buildings you remember
  from your childhood. These are very elegant
  high-end floors that are a great addition to any
  home, but like gray hardwood have not really
  caught on in Southeastern Pennsylvania. For
  those who own a summer beach cottage, it is a
  very popular choice.

7
Engineered vs. Solid

• The advancements in the construction of
  engineered woods are making this a popular choice
  for many homeowners, especially when comparing it
  with laminates however, in our area, solid
  hardwoods are still the first choice for the
  majority of homeowners.
