Material Options

Hard Floors

  • Hard floors help create a healthy home environment because they don’t have any fibers to trap dirt, germs, or dust mites.

  • Hard floors are usually cold, but can be warmed by the use of rugs or under-floor heating systems.

  • Hard floors are durable, but also tend to be heavy and amplify sound.

  • Hard floors aren’t resilient; things dropped on them will easily break.
