Smooth Vs Textured Wood

There’s no feeling quite like kicking off your shoes after a long day, and relaxing in your home. What some people don’t realize is that your feet are ultimately the first thing that receive the ‘welcome home’ feel. While you’re making your way over to take a load off, isn’t getting there part of the battle? In terms of wood flooring, many people opt for smooth, waxed floors, but did you know that textured wood is just as popular? In fact, there are a ton of things you can do with this type of flooring!



Smooth Floors

The most traditional option is a smooth floor. Because of the shine and finish, many homeowners turn to this popular flooring to accent their rooms. Benefits to these types of wood are the variation in finishes that they come in, and their cost. While it isn’t solid hardwood, engineered planks are cost-efficient and provide a cheaper way to achieve the perfect look. On the flip side, solid planks have the ability to be sanded and refinished a few times, just in case your taste changes and you need a refresh.

Textured Flooring

Avid beachgoers and adventure seekers will love this option. Textured wood places the homeowner into the wilderness -- an indoor getaway, if you will. Each plank has been specifically shaped and sanded to mimic the real feel of an outdoor abode -- just how you like it. This type of wood pairs well with those who are either shooting for a modern, rustic look, or a traditional home with a little outdoor flair.
