Hardwood flooring fits wonderfully in any home, and adds an immeasurable degree of value to the residence. Hardwood flooring can endure for many years if properly cared for over the ensuing years. The primary concern in caring for a hardwood floor is the presence of moisture. Moisture that wicks up from the subfloor can rot out a hardwood floor.

Preventing the exposure of the flooring to water damage is the primary problem in hardwood maintenance. Prompt clean up of spills and regular cleaning is a crucial requirement of upkeep with hardwood. When spills begin to bead up on hardwood floors, it usually means that the finish has worn through and must be replaced. Be sure to do this soon, because the water damage can rapidly affect the rest of the hardwood. Cupping and crowning that results from water damage can be difficult and costly to repair, and requires time consuming sanding and planing. Areas that undergo extreme temperature changes can also put a strain on hardwood flooring.

Laminate flooring is a wonderful option when potential water damage and a tough climate make hardwood less viable. Made to resist water damage, laminate flooring will look great for years with very little maintenance. Pressure sealed against moisture from both the top and the subfloor, laminate flooring will provide years of great looking finish. Best of all, laminate flooring can provide a very realistic hardwood imitation that is hard to detect. This is great when the beauty of a hardwood is desired, but the maintenance issues involved are not as desirable. Luckily, Bruce Flooring provides a wide range of both hardwood and laminate flooring.
