According to a leading floor manufacturer, now is the time to purchase wooden flooring. Homeowners looking to give their homes a new lease of life before the spring have been told that now is the ideal time to install domestic fixtures and fittings such as solid wood flooring.
Joe McLoughlin, director of property information website OurProperty.co.uk, has commented on how revamping properties is far more cost effective than moving elsewhere. In the current economic situation, banks are hesitant in handing out new mortgage loans so consumers must make the most of what they have.
"Doing extensions, repairs and renovations will be preferable to taking the big leap and trying to remortgage or get a new mortgage," he said. "Now is a good time."
McLoughlin also explained how many householders are having their kitchens and bathrooms overhauled. It is much more hygienic to fit these rooms with solid wood flooring rather than carpet. Once installed, regular maintenance of solid wood flooring is crucial to prevent the wood from being covered in scuff marks and scratches.
