As winter approaches, the cozy season can bring harsh challenges to your hardwood floors. Cold weather, dry air from heaters, and snow or salt tracked inside can all cause damage. With a few proactive steps, you can winter-proof your hardwood floors and maintain their beauty and durability throughout the season.
Selecting hardwood flooring involves several important considerations, from the species of wood to the finish and color. Each choice impacts the look, durability, and functionality of your floor. For high-traffic areas or homes with pets, harder wood species may be best, while softer woods can suit spaces with less activity. The aesthetic you want also plays a big role—different species offer unique grain patterns and colors, and not all wood types take stain the same way. At Ohio Floor Company, we guide you through these decisions to help you choose the perfect hardwood flooring for your home.
