CENTURY 21 Mertz & Associates February 13, 2022

Choosing the right flooring for your home will set the tone for each room. Our real estate agents understand that when you buy a home, you may want to make a few changes that will make your new home your own. Changing or upgrading the flooring is sometimes the first step a new homeowner will take simply because it is easier to install while the home is still empty. The following are the top five flooring trends for 2022.

Hardwood – Hardwood floors are always in style. The biggest difference between the types of hardwood flooring options is the pattern and type of stain or varnish that is applied. You also have the choice of wood as well. When installed correctly, hardwood floors are easy to maintain and even easier to clean.
Laminate – Laminate flooring is waterproof and comes in a wide range of textures and colors. It's perfect for any room in your home, including the kitchens and bathrooms. This type of flooring is incredibly durable and with proper care, will last for many years. If you like texture, laminate will be the type of flooring that offers the most options.
Luxury Vinyl – Luxury vinyl is made from synthetic materials. You can find luxury vinyl that looks like wood or tile but offers a level of resiliency that goes unmatched when it comes to standing up to harsh conditions. This type of flooring is easy to clean and extremely versatile. Many of the Lewisburg homes for sale have luxury vinyl in all the right areas.
Tile – There are two primary types of tile flooring for your home: ceramic and porcelain. Tile flooring is usually the most expensive, but in the long run, it is extremely cost-effective. It is very durable and, if a tile breaks, it can easily be replaced by simply removing the tile and replacing it. Tile flooring is easy to clean and maintain and will serve you well for many years.
Carpet – It has been one of the most popular types of flooring for several decades. Its versatility makes it ideal for most rooms. Whether you choose cut pile carpeting or plush, it is comfortable to walk on and will provide you with several years of use. With proper care, carpeting will last you for several years showing very little wear and tear.
