When choosing new flooring, homeowners often focus on style, cost, and durability. However, one crucial factor frequently overlooked is how flooring can significantly impact health. At Ayoub Carpet Service, we install hardwood flooring, which is more than just an aesthetically pleasing and durable option. Let’s explore the top four health benefits of hardwood flooring in your home. 

1. Improved Indoor Air Quality

Hardwood floors will not trap dust mites or pollutants, unlike other flooring types. You won't need to worry about a buildup of pet dander and other allergens that can worsen respiratory conditions, allergies, and asthma. And without these pollutants trapped by your floor, you will experience better indoor air quality.

2. Hypoallergenic Properties

Hardwood floors are hypoallergenic and can easily be rid of any pollutants. Regular sweeping and occasional mopping will reduce the presence of dust, pollen, and pet dander that can trigger allergy or asthma symptoms. 

3. Diminished Mold & Bacteria

You won't have to worry about your hardwood flooring harboring mold or bacteria like you would with other floor types. Hardwood won't absorb moisture and create an environment where mold and mildew can thrive. Its hard surface will resist harmful bacteria.

4. Naturally Clean Environment

Cultivating a clean environment in your household will help ensure your family stays healthy. Hardwood floors are conducive to keeping a clean house since they don't require intensive cleaning or potentially harmful chemicals to maintain their status.

The Luxury Vinyl Plank Alternative

Many of the benefits of hardwood flooring can also be achieved with luxury vinyl plank and tile. A low-maintenance flooring that offers the same wow factor as hardwood, luxury vinyl plank is available in various colors, textures, and designs.
