How to Choose the Right Flooring
Start With the Room
Think about how the room is used. High-traffic areas, quiet bedrooms, and moisture-prone spaces like bathrooms or laundry rooms all have different flooring needs. Our flooring-by-room and flooring-by-need guides make it easy to compare options and find the best fit for each space.
Match the Material to the Need
Carpet
The most comfortable and quietest underfoot — ideal for bedrooms and family spaces, with fibers and pile styles for different traffic levels.
Luxury Vinyl
Waterproof and durable, with realistic wood and stone visuals. A strong all-rounder for kitchens, baths, and high-traffic areas.
Hardwood
Real wood with the longest lifespan and strong buyer appeal. Best above grade; engineered hardwood handles more rooms than solid.
Laminate
A great way to get a wood look with fantastic scratch, fade, and wear resistance. Many newer laminates are also water-resistant.
Think About Cost Over Time
The cheapest floor isn’t always the best value. For example, a quality carpet on the right pad outlasts a premium one on a thin pad. Durable materials in busy rooms mean fewer replacements. We’ll help you weigh upfront cost against how long a floor will last in your home so you can make the best choice for your space.
