Flooring / April 29, 2019
Your furry friends are also part of the family, so if you’re remodeling your home, their comfort should also be considered. If you have pets, you may want to install flooring that is resistant to scratches, comfortable for both humans and animals and easy to clean.
In this post, your local home remodeling contractor, Handyman Connection of Winter Park, shares pet-friendly flooring options.
1. Vinyl
Vinyl flooring is cost-effective and can easily be installed. It has good insulating properties as it remains cool in the summer and warm in the winter. Your dog can move around this floor safely and comfortably without slipping.
2. Hardwood
Some of the best pet-proof options of hardwood include oak, cherry, maple, hickory, walnut, sycamore and mahogany. Hardwood is easy to clean and comes in various colors and finishes. This material is very durable and scratch-resistant. However, keep in mind that softwoods like pine, chestnut and hemlock are not recommended for larger breeds of dogs since they are more prone to getting damaged.
3. Bamboo
It’s one of the most popular flooring options for dogs since it’s more stain- and scratch-resistant compared to traditional hardwood. It can endure high traffic and wear and tear damage. Also, it’s eco-friendly and if you’re conflicted between vinyl and hardwood, you may want to choose this material instead.
4. Ceramic and Porcelain Tile
These materials can be cleaned effortlessly and they’re water-resistant. This is because of the cement board underlayment, which makes these tiles solid all over with no hollow spots. Consider tiles with thicker grout lines to help with pet traction.
5. Engineered Wood
Engineered wood has the look, warmth and comfort of hardwood. It is also a favorite flooring material for pets. However, after a couple of years, your dog may leave deep scratches on the floor. When that time comes, you may have to contact a flooring expert as this material can only be lightly sanded for a limited time.
