Enjoying the Process of Choosing Hardwood Floors

Texas Flooring Gallery

Now that you’ve decided you want (and need, of course!) new floors – let’s discuss some aspects of the design process. There are a handful of things to consider when choosing which floor will fit your family and your space perfectly.


The housing market is booming through 2020. So, whether you’ve bought a new place, are deciding to build, or want to make the leap to bring your home up a notch by redoing the floors – let’s go through a list to bring with you when you come into Texas Flooring Gallery!


Your floors set the mood for your entire home. When someone walks into your space, the floor they’re standing on will determine the entire vibe of the night. It’s important to make the best decision for you and your people, and we’ve got you covered.


  1. First up – take a good, hard look at your lifestyle. Consider the probability of traffic on your floors. If you have pets or children, you may want to go with hand-scraped or distressed floors. This way, knicks and scratches are bound to happen – but you’re much less stressed, because you went with distressed! Life is going to happen –but you don’t have to worry about the consequences when you let us help you make the best decision for your family.
  2. Secondly, get some inspiration for your dream space, and make note of what existing features are in your home already. What is your trim like around the home? What color paints do you have? Do you have a theme or mood? What color is your furniture, and will you have rugs in some rooms? All of these elements may play into the color and hue of flooring you decide to choose.
  3. And the fun part: Colors! Natural or stained? You’ll find variation from dark, light and moderate. Do you have a bright space with lots of natural light? Dark wood may bring some contrast to your look. Do you want to make your home or space look bigger? You may want to go with lighter wood.


At the end of the day, flooring is a huge decision that determines the overall look and tone of your home. Bring your questions and desires to us at Texas Flooring Gallery so we’re able to bring your dreams to life, from the ground up!
