Flooring – An Impressive Design Element in Any Home

First impressions are lasting impressions. Flooring is a design element that is immediately noticed when you step into a home.


Replacing flooring material that is dated or in disrepair gives your home a new lease on life. Most remodel and addition projects include flooring upgrades and green flooring is often the preferred choice.


The use of sustainable, FSC certified and reclaimed woods is gaining in popularity and homeowners are more aware of building options that contribute to a healthy indoor air quality.

Environmentally responsible homeowners can be faced with a bewildering selection of eco-friendly flooring products. Bamboo, hardwoods, cork, linoleum, concrete, tiles and stone can be harvested, manufactured and distributed to qualify as certified green materials. Flooring materials free of formaldehyde and volatile organic compounds (VOC) do not release harmful off gasing chemicals into your home environment. When shopping for flooring materials we recommend you confirm that the products are “certified green” as specified by the U.S. Green Building Council.
