Flooring in Bolton, Bury and Greater Manchester | The Benefits of Hardwood

Homeowners with a taste for the finer things in life are moving towards the installation of hardwood flooring in bigger numbers than ever before. Some prefer the aesthetic of wood over carpet or tile. Others like the minimal maintenance associated with hardwood, and the fact it cleans so easily. Here at North West Flooring Solutions Ltd, we love hardwood flooring too.

That’s why we are regional supply and installation specialists for Bolton, Bury and all locations in the surrounding Greater Manchester area.

This blog post makes the case for hardwood and should give you some help in deciding which flooring surface you’ll eventually want to use. With so many benefits associated with it, we strongly advise that you give hardwood flooring your full consideration and, better still, that you call in to see us at our premises in Radcliffe so you can see our exciting product lines for yourself.

Enhanced Appearance

Wood flooring adds elegance to homes in Bolton, Bury and Greater Manchester. It has a warmer feel than laminate and can make your home feel bigger. It also has a major impact on your visitors.

Easy to Maintain

Whereas carpet can stain easily and cling onto dirt even when vacuuming, hardwood flooring cleans easily with a sweep, a steam, a quick once-over with the hoover or lightly-damp cloths and flooring wipes.

Strong and Durable

Upgrading to a hardwood floor gives homeowners a hardwearing surface that will withstand everyday use well. With just a little maintenance, you can keep wooden flooring in new condition for decades.

Added Resale Value

Should you ever put your home on the market, some potential buyers will pay more for a property with hardwood flooring. Some people prefer homes without carpet, especially if used by someone else.

Improved Air Quality

Carpet can attract and hold dust, animal fur and a series of allergens which are especially bad for asthma sufferers. Unlike a laminate flooring product, hardwood floors have no grout lines to trap dust.

Consistency in Theme

No matter how creative you want to be with the rest of the décor in a Bolton, Bury or Manchester property, hardwood flooring is a product with enough style and effect variations to fit perfectly into any home.

Long Lifespan

Hardwood flooring is a lasting product which makes the initial price tag much less intimidating. With the appropriate care, it can last for decades and, in the end, could end up making you some long-term savings.

Resistant to Fading

A carpet exposed to direct sunlight will lose its depth of colour over time. Hardwood is more resistant to ultraviolet light, which means it won’t need replacing any sooner even when we lay it in a brighter room.

Easy to Refinish

If you grow tired of your flooring’s appearance but still love the appeal of hardwood, keep in mind that it can be sanded and refinished to give your home an exciting new finish without having to spend a fortune.

Better Acoustics

Hardwood flooring can make homes in Bolton, Bury and the Greater Manchester area quieter by reducing hollow sounds and vibrations. This explains why it is so popular for dance and music studios.
