Do wood floors add value to a home?

Adding any top-quality product to your home increases the likelihood that a home buyer will consider it a ‘dream home.’ Wood floors are always a wise investment simplified by engineered wood and prefinished solid wood availability. Traditional unfinished solid wood is excellent if you prefer a customized floor. Homeowners have favored hardwood flooring for generations, and it continues to entice potential homeowners today. If you’re considering a flooring upgrade, 55 Flooring can assist you. We have a showroom in Anaheim, California.

Research on hardwood flooring value

Clever, a researcher of real estate topics, advises that hardwood flooring installation is the best interior home improvement for an updated design. Expect to recoup 70- to 80-percent of the amount you spend on the upgrade. Further, informal surveys indicate that real estate agents overwhelmingly agree that homes with wood floors sell more quickly than homes with other types of flooring. A quick sale ‘equals’ less hassle, something that is, perhaps, just as important as return on investment.

Manufactured wood

You may want to consider more budget-friendly engineered wood flooring since it looks the same as solid hardwood flooring when it is installed. What’s more, this manufactured wood is the more practical of the two types of hardwood. A plywood base is attached to the hardwood layer above it, and this base tolerates moisture. In addition, engineered wood flooring is most often designed for floating floor installation. In other words, attachment to the subfloor is not necessary so that planks can be installed on cement slabs.
