As the days grow longer and the weather warmer, many homeowners start thinking about home improvement projects. While summer is often associated with holidays and outdoor activities, it is also an ideal time to complete indoor renovations, particularly flooring, as you can be outside on the day it’s being done. Here are our top three reasons why summer is the perfect season to invest in new flooring for your home. Better weather We’ll start with the most obvious one! Better weather provides a better environment to install flooring for a number of reasons. Materials such as hardwood, laminate, and even carpet benefit from low humidity levels, which help prevent warping, swelling, and other moisture-related issues.  Also, adhesives used in flooring installations cure more effectively in warm weather, ensuring a more secure and lasting fit. Not to mention that you can also have windows and doors open to ensure that any temporary fumes created from installing the flooring can dissipate quicker. You can see what needs the most attention With improved light (and more of it) flooding in through windows, you’ll be able to notice which areas of your home need the most attention. We find that customers tend to notice marks on their flooring in Summer that went unnoticed in the darker months.  While it’s easier to make quick improvements to your home, the flooring can have the biggest impact of all. It’s also the aspect of your home that sees the most wear and tear so making sure you prioritise the areas that need the most attention is important. We have a Floorspiration Hub that has lots of stunning photos to give you some flooring inspiration for all areas of your home. Enjoying your new flooring Finally, one of the most rewarding aspects of installing new flooring in the summer is that you can make the most of it. With children out of school and more time spent at home, summer provides the perfect opportunity to enjoy the comfort and beauty of your new flooring. Whether you’re hosting a barbecue, having a family movie night, or simply relaxing at home, new flooring can enhance your overall experience. Whether you’re looking for new hard flooring or carpet, we have a huge range to see at both our Worthing and Storrington showrooms. We always encourage customers to come in to see our ranges for themselves so that they can make a better decision (more on this in one our previous blog posts). By visiting one of our showrooms, you also have the opportunity to speak to our friendly team of flooring experts. With years of experience, they’re on hand to help you choose the right flooring for you.  Customers often bring a curtain sample or cushion cover in so we can match flooring to soft furnishings and as we mentioned, we also have a Floorspiration Hub so that you can get some ideas before coming in to see us. You can also show the photos you see on our website to our experts who will be able to take you to the flooring shown, or something very similar. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Top 3 Things You Need To Know Before Choosing Your New Flooring

With Spring comes longer, brighter days which, while very welcome, can often highlight aspects of our home that need improving. Although it can be easy to replace cushions, curtains or other accessories, your flooring can have the biggest impact of all. Whether it’s choosing the right type for a particular room (not got round to replacing the last owner’s carpet in the bathroom yet?!), or simply refreshing your carpets, vinyl or wood, there’s a few decisions to make first: In some cases, the answer may be ‘yes’, but you might like to look at updating the style, perhaps upgrading the quality or maybe changing the shade slightly to make the room look lighter. We can advise on similar alternatives that you can feel comfortable about whilst improving the general appearance of the room. There’s a wealth of ideas on the internet and this is a great place to start gathering examples of flooring you like. But, of course, there’s nothing like the personal advice of an expert. With over 60 years of expertise – and awards for our outstanding customer service! – our expert team is well placed to help you make the right decisions. We’ll suggest ideas that work for you and your home, look great and stay within budget. Give us a call to make an appointment. We’ll ask you some basic questions about your home, your lifestyle, your favourite colours for interiors and what sort of look you’d like to achieve, and then make suggestions based on your answers. How about colour matching your flooring to either your wall colour or your soft furnishings? We can take any colour you like and make sure your carpet will fully complement your colour scheme. Matching colours across different areas of a room will pull it together and make it look like an interior designer has been at work! Alternatively you might decide you want to ditch the carpet and replace it with vinyl, or vice versa. Again, we can discuss the benefits of different options such as wood flooring, carpet, tiles, vinyl and laminates to establish what works best for you. Whatever approach you decide to take to revamping your flooring this Spring, pop in to our Worthing or Storrington shops for a chat with our experts about the choices available to you.
