When choosing a room in your home to remodel, cost, value, and use are all important. The staff at Norm Hughes Homes in Chamblee Georgia has years of experience in helping our customers chose the best remodeling project for their home and family. Many of our customers in Chamblee Georgia chose to redo their living room. This room has changed from the room to just look at to a well-used part of the family home. The living room/great room has become the gathering place for many family activities.
Open floor plans and vaulted ceilings help give today’s living room an open, spacious feel. Your living room can be the focal point of your overall home décor. When choosing an option for a living room floor, consider how different flooring options appeal to both the style you’re looking for and the function you need.
Carpet
With its nearly unlimited color and texture choices, carpet offers
versatility like no other living
room flooring option. There are many benefits to using carpeting in
your living room,
such as comfort, durability, non-slick safety, and noise reduction. When
selecting color and texture, bold colors and defined textures work well to draw
attention to your living
room floor. Choose a more neutral and soft option to highlight
other aspects of your room, such as wall coverings or furniture. Carefully
balance your flooring
budget against quality considerations to ensure your carpet selection
can stand the test of time.
Hardwood
The idea of hardwood flooring enhances
any living room with
unrivaled elegance. A premium choice for living rooms for many years, hardwood floors can
add value to your home without breaking the bank. Over the years, hardwood flooring options have
increased greatly leading to more affordable styles that don’t sacrifice
quality. Well-matched to any décor, using hardwood flooring has many benefits,
including durability and allergen reduction. When choosing a wood floor style,
be sure to consider the moisture and humidity levels in your area and discuss
the appropriate option for you.
Tile
While not as popular as other living room flooring ideas, tile flooring is
becoming more and more popular. Whether you’re considering using tile throughout
your entire living
room, or as a transitional or entryway element, there are many
reasons to choose tile.
Of all floor
types, tile is
the most durable and resistant to moisture and seasonal expansion. By mixing
and matching tile colors,
textures, and shapes, design options with tile are virtually unlimited. Add elegance
and style to your living
room with low-maintenance tile flooring!
Area Rugs
If you’re using hardwood
flooring or tile in
your living room,
consider area rugs to
provide a distinctive decorating element and minimize the echo sound effect tile and
hardwood can
create. Area
rugs come in a variety of styles, colors, and textures to
complement any décor.
The friendly folks at Norm Hughes Homes can work with you to plan and remodel the living room of your dreams.
