Hardwood Flooring Companies - Traditional or Modern?

With so many hardwood flooring companies to choose from, you will want to know how best to narrow down your search. One thing to consider is whether it is better to opt for a traditional hardwood flooring company, or a more modern organisation that offers the latest flooring innovations.

One of the many appeals of solid wood flooring is that the end result is beautiful, elegant and timeless. However, whether you have a contemporary home or business, or a traditional interior, wooden flooring also has to work on a more practical level.

So the question you should ask yourself is: Do you opt for a long-standing company with an in depth knowledge of materials and the traditional skills needed to produce a high quality finish? Or do you opt for a more forward thinking company that takes into account modern requirements and offers you the newest flooring products?

Here we shall look at the two types of hardwood flooring companies and consider how Naturally Wood offers the best of both worlds.

Traditional Hardwood Flooring Companies
If you are thinking of investing in solid wood flooring, there are many benefits in selecting one of the traditional hardwood flooring companies to complete the work.

Firstly, by choosing a long-standing hardwood flooring company, you can benefit from the experience of staff with many years in the trade. As they have expert knowledge of their field, they are well placed to understand your requirements and will take time to discuss all the flooring options with you.

In addition to this, a traditional company with an experienced team of staff has a deep understanding of the materials they use. This means they can explain how the overall result will look and offer specialist advice on the type of flooring that will best suit your home or business.

When it comes to installing your floor, traditional hardwood flooring companies will place great emphasis on the quality of materials and workmanship. A traditional company is dedicated to achieving the highest levels of customer satisfaction - from the initial survey, through to installation and aftercare stage when they advise on long term care and repair of your flooring and the right products to use. They are also in a better position to deal with more unusual or bespoke requests, and the end result will be high quality flooring with attention to detail.

Finally, if your floor looks tired or worn and is need of a revamp, traditional companies have the skills not only to install new flooring, but also restore and repair existing flooring to ensure it looks as good as new.

Modern Hardwood Flooring Companies

Modern hardwood flooring companies are fresh, new and forward thinking and can offer you the latest flooring products which can bring a fantastic creative slant to a contemporary home.

A modern company will offer the newest flooring products that take into account not just current fashions, but all the practical aspects as well, such as under-floor heating. Modern flooring companies can also introduce products that are more unusual so your interior stands out from the rest. This includes more exotic woods such as Teak, Iroko, Merbau or Wenge, which look stunning against a backdrop of contemporary furniture, accessories and wall art.

Other products that they can offer for your home or business include Bolefloor bespoke curved flooring, which is truly unique and steers away from the traditional parallel flooring as the boards are cut to follow the natural growth of tree.

In addition, modern companies know they are in a competitive market and strive to keep their costs down so they can offer competitive pricing. They use up to date marketing and communications techniques and have an extensive website where you can research the products online and make contact via email.
