If you are fortunate enough to have a little bit of money set aside, now is the time of year to spend it.  Indeed, a nice summer holiday could be the perfect purchase for your rainy day fund. However, if you’re not interested in getting away then maybe a little bit of home renovation is more up your street? Redecorating your home can be a very exciting and satisfying endeavour, and summer is perfect time to do it as you have plenty of long evenings to make the most of. Even a few select adjustments or additions can transform the overall look of your home enormously when they are done well. However, rather than splashing out your cash on a new living room suite, luxurious kitchen or decadent bathroom, why not choose to have solid wood flooring installed instead? After all, floors are one of the most immediately identifiable features of any property so having them fashioned from gloriously beautiful natural wood will make a massive difference to your home. Certainly, they will bring a warmth, character and charm to your rooms that other flooring solutions simply cannot match. Natural wood floors are unequalled in being able to create a traditional and classic look. Indeed, the ability with which wooden floors can lend themselves so well to all types of decor and compliment practically everything will ensure that any and all of your rooms will look absolutely fantastic. In addition to looking fantastic, solid wood floors can also provide your home with several other benefits too. Chief amongst these benefits is the fact that wooden floors can add more value to your home. Naturally, this can be of great importance, especially with the current housing market still being less than favourable for sellers. Potential buyers often look for a ‘wow’ factor when they look around a home and having a solid wood floor will ensure that your home has it in spades. Another significant benefit is that wooden floors offer a longevity that most other floor types can only dream of. This is because wooden floors are incredibly resistant to daily wear and tear, and are far more durable and longer lasting than any other flooring solutions. Furthermore, natural wood is also far easier to clean than carpet, so you don’t need to think about investing in a large rug every time a drink or plate of food gets spilled. In fact, there are very few cleaning incidents that cannot be handled with a quick once over with the mop or vacuum cleaner. And, as if all that wasn’t enough, wooden floors with under-floor heating can also help to ensure you stay nice and snug in the winter! With so many plentiful advantages and great deals available, it is clear to see that wooden flooring really is the perfect renovation option for your rainy day investment fund.
