Tips for selecting the perfect floors by Jason Valasek

One: First it is important to consider your unique design style and the function of the room. Will you be hosting dinner parties, dog sitting for the neighbors, or maybe just curling up on the couch reading a book or watching TV?

Two: Then think….what type of personality are you trying to create…smart and sassy…cool and chic….or maybe you already have some existing decor you are trying to incorporate.

Three: Understand what type of flooring can accomplish your goals. Carpet and area rugs create feeling of warmth and comfort….wood and laminate flooring create the wow factor…lastly tile is the most versatile and can accommodate any desired look or just simply keep the room cool.

Tile Flooring Fun Fact by Jason Valasek:

Tile flooring retains the temperature of its surrounding air. A room air conditioned at 70 degrees will keep the tile floor also cooled at 70 degrees. Human body temperature runs at 98 degrees. Walking on a 70 degree tile floor with a body temp of 98 degrees creates a cool feeling from below your feet which travels upwards through out your body. This is how tile creates a cool room.



+++ Jason Valasek have been in the flooring industry since 2002. He owned & operated his first flooring company in San Diego CA. He is also a licensed floor contractor in the state of CA. He can help you locate product or installation in any city or state. His specialty is providing flooring product or services to those that need it. No matter what product you need, tile, stone, laminate, wood, even carpet, he can usually help you find the best deal available. +++

Top Reasons Why People Like Carpet Flooring

Carpets were once used to cover uneven and unattractive floors. It was merely a piece of cloth to hide imperfections of floor and to create a pleasing look in the room. But gradually carpet making was considered to be an art work and so this industry flourished and became one of the largest industries.

Carpets were not only used to cover floors but they were also used to add flair to the simple room. It is an effortless thing to make your room more pleasing and welcoming. You do not need to go for costly decoration items if you have a decorative carpet installed in the room. It is a beautiful decoration that can make your room very formal and cozy.

Carpets are made for every room including; washrooms, kitchen, drawing room, dining room, hall, and outdoor carpets are also available. But the carpets for different rooms are made on different patterns and according to the room’s requirements. Bathroom pieces are certainly different in all respect from the hall carpets. Indoor carpets cannot be used for outdoor places. Wall to wall types are usually for bedrooms and for large halls, you can use different rugs. For kid’s room rough types are preferred so that they do not wear out soon.

A wonderful range of patterns and colors is available to choose from in flooring companies. Floral and geometric designed pieces are marvelous. You can have carpets from Persia, India, Germany, and Pakistan and from other countries of the world. All these are unique and have their own designs and styles. You can select one according to your lifestyle and needs. You can also change your old carpet with a new one easily when you get bored of it.

How To Care For Laminate Flooring

If you have laminate flooring in your home, you know that it is one of the most durable types of flooring available as well as one of the most easy types to take care of. Even though laminate is low maintenance, there are still certain cleaning and care tips that you should follow to keep your flooring strong and looking new and shiny and beautiful for years to come.

Laminate flooring is designed to resist scratching and gouging, but it is still vulnerable to abrasive cleaners, soaps, and the biggest source of all scratches-dirt tracked in under shoes. If you aren’t careful, the protective coating on your laminate flooring can wear away and will need to be replace. You can prevent this by placing protective casters on your furniture and enforcing a no shoes rule inside of your house. Also, be sure never to drag furniture across your floors, since this can cause scratching and gouging as well. Area rugs can also be used to protect your floor, and floor mats should be used in case family members and visitors forget to remove their shoes. You should also wear socks or slippers whenever possible, since the oils in your feet can cause damage, and also cause dirt to cling to them which is then transferred to your floor.

The best way to prevent permanent staining on any surface is to clean up spills as soon as they occur. Again, avoid wet mops, abrasive cleaners, and soaps, and purchase a cleaning solution that is specially formulated for your floor type. Clean your floor every two weeks, making sure to let your floor dry thoroughly before walking on it. You can also use a vacuum in place of a broom to clean up dirt and debris. Static cleaning systems, like Swiffer sweepers and other brands work well for this purpose. Make sure never to apply wax or acrylic finishes over your laminate, since this can actually destroy the protective coating, and be sure to only use the stain removal products that your manufacturer recommends.

When properly cared for your flooring can be a thing of beauty in your home for years. Following these easy care tips will help to ensure that your floors stay looking their best. For specific questions, be sure to read the tips provided by your manufacturer and contact them or visit their website when necessary.
