Having a house is a dream of every one and when a couple buy a house for themselves, they pay attention to walls, paints, interiors and landscaping, but often forget about the flooring, which is the most important thing. Especially in London, where mostly all the houses are made from wood, timber or bamboo wood, only that flooring should be chosen that it is strong, durable and stays the same for longer. The easy solution to it is the oak wood flooring.

Aesthetic value:

The wood flooring has been in trend for ages. Though it started in areas, which were earthquakes prone, now these have turned to be of aesthetic value. It’s a cost effective alternative of carpet and your kids won’t spoil it as they do to the carpet by spilling cold drinks. These can not even be spoilt by the scratches of your pets. It’s better than the marble flooring also as it won’t turn pale as the marble does and there is a reduced risk of slipping on them. The finishing of the flooring is done by oil based urethane or water based polyurethane and thus you can choose from the variety of finishing as well. The natural lacquers and varnishes are rarely used due to the availability of waxes and oils. After this the floor sanding is done, which smoothens the floor and compensates for the unevenness. It is usually done by the sandpaper. Once you get the wood flooring done your neighbours and friends would envy you due to the rich look your home that it will attain after this.

Types:

Though there are different varieties, which will suit different interior, and vary in the price as well, a few of them are really becoming popular and favourite of many people. There is anthracite oak strip, which is in a blackish colour like the coal, the Sutter oak and natural oak in conventional brown wooden colour, oak gray in grey colour or in Swedish designs and textures, which are little less expensive than the mentioned earlier. The other varieties which are popular are the Swiss oak and the ones in rustic look.

Maintenance:

The best feature of oak wood flooring is that you need not do much, no tension of getting the floor bleached as in the tiles; just regular cleaning with bloom, mopping and sweeping would be enough. Though the flooring alone is enough, but you can still place in the carpets to enhance its beauty and durability. Just a little concern is to avoid spilling chemicals on it and this would remain the same until many years.
