How to Choose the BEST FLOORING for Your HOME

[@ashleychilders]

I've wanted to create a comprehensive video on flooring for SO LONG, and it's finally HERE!!! Flooring is such a big investment and design decision for your home, and it's so important to choose a flooring that fits your style, budget, and functional needs! Let me know which part of the video you found most helpful, and remember to download our FREE Flooring Guide (at the top of the video description) so you can keep all the essential flooring info at your fingertips!

@@ashleychilders thank you! I keep leaning towards carpet again!

I really appreciated this video! I recently renovated my living room with engineered hardwood floors, and the difference is stunning. I chose a rich oak finish that complements the space beautifully. Installation was straightforward, taking about two days for 400 square feet. I initially worried about moisture in my basement, but the engineered option has held up well. Your tips on maintenance were spot on-regular cleaning makes a huge difference!

So glad to hear you are enjoying your new flooring! Thanks for sharing your experience!

Here in the UK 🇬🇧 tiled floors are so durable, varied and makes a room really stand out - those made to look like wooden flooring always my go to - thanks Ashley 🤎

Thank you for making this video. This is very helpful. I always wondered which wood applications to use. Thank you so much for the guide as well ❤

[@ashleychilders]

You’re so welcome! I honestly loved putting it together. There’s just so many options when it comes to flooring so I’m so glad the video and guide are helpful!! ❤️

Thank you!! ❤️

[@hintex487]

So interesting video!

[@ashleychilders]

Thank you so much!!

[@lisahoerr9713]

Thanks Ashley! Trying to decide for our basement flooring.

[@ashleychilders]

Hum…. Does it have a direct access outside? What are you using the space for?

[@lisahoerr9713]

@@ashleychilders no, it does not have access to outside. It is a refresh that we’re doing. Kid zone now, but last one moving out soon. It has a low pile carpet now and has held up great! It is the only space in our home that has carpet. All the other spaces have hardwood or tile. Thanks for replying!!

[@ashleychilders]

@@lisahoerr9713 okay, if you want it as a cozy hangout/tv space, carpet honestly is a great insulator and absorbs sound so well. You could totally do a beautiful tile (to mix things up and be super durable) or wood, I’d just plan for a large area rug also, to absorb sound and make it feel super cozy and welcoming!

[@patbusato6089]

THIS WAS SO HELPFUL, love your videos! I couldn't download the flooring guide though.. I tried a few times but the "download here" icon on the email doesn't highlight(activate) to download the guide. Anybody else on the same?

[@ashleychilders]

Oh Yikes!! I’ll double check it as soon as I’m in front of my computer, thanks so much for letting me know! 😅 I’m so happy you enjoyed the video!

We are building a traditional custom house in NJ we are thinking Brazilian cherry about 5.5 inch wide variable length hardwood flooring. Is this out of style in contemporary interior design? Most I see being highly promoted are broad white oak. Please advise. I do not see many recent videos about different wood species and style of the house..

[@georgestreng]

Your choice sounds much more interesting.

[@Sue-qn7od]

Our living room and dining room is an L shape, do you match both area rugs identical or different patterns. Thanks for your help.

[@ashleychilders]

Well, I kinda like to mix it up, especially if there’s different seating grouping! I think that having a common color palette is a good idea, but then you could mix it up with the style/pattern/weave type!

[@Sue-qn7od]

Okay thank you for your help.

[@ashleychilders]

@@Sue-qn7od happy to! ❤️

I didn't see any mention of laminate floors. My niece recently had them installed in the home they inherited from their grandparents. I thought lvp would have been recommended, but the builder suggested laminate as being stronger with their large dog.

[@ashleychilders]

How interesting! We generally don’t use laminate, but I’m sure there are situations that make it a great choice! Thanks so much for watching ❤️❤️

[@georgestreng]

LVP would seem to be more practical because it’s waterproof.
