In Westchester NY, hardwood floors are the preferred flooring. It is beautiful, natural, authentic, timeless and just goes with everything. It makes your space look larger and it is easier to clean. In the long run, it will also save you money (vs. carpet that gets dirty and needs to be replaced every 5-7 yrs). And, of course, it improves the value of your home.
Over the weekend, I read an article about why hardwood flooring is so popular...besides the obvious. What I thought was so interesting is that one of the reasons deep down inside that we love hardwood flooring is this overriding cultural trend towards AUTHENTICITY. With so much going on in our lives, and so much distrust out there (whether it's govetnment, corporations, banks, or whatever), we all crave people and things that are REAL and GENUINE. We take comfort in the people and things we can rely on. We love to look back to the past - the good old days, the simpler times...when life was easier and less complicated.
Hardwood flooring is a perfect example of a product that embodies that feeling. First, the wood has been around for a long time - often it's taken over 100 years for those trees to grow. Second, that hardwood will be here for at least another century enduring through the generations. Third, because hardwood is a natural product, it has natural variation. Each piece is different - some pieces are darker, some lighter; the graining is different on each piece. And, over time, it ages...and it gets more beautiful with age. It truly is a stunning pr
oduct.
There are so many hardwood styles and colors. Take a look at this hardwood flooring video to see the breadth of choices available for your Westchester NY home.

Are you looking to sand and refinish hardwood floors in Chappaqua NY?
It's amazing what a difference refinishing your hardwood flooring can make. Your floors will look brand new and you even have the option to change the color. You can go light, dark, mid tones, or red tones. It can really give your home (or room) a whole new look.
If you have hardwood underneath your carpets, we can restore the beauty of the hardwood underneath. It's amazing what a big difference this can make in your home. And, believe it or not, it is usually less expensive to refinish your floors than to recarpet. Refinishing your wood floors will also improve your home's value and it will be easier to clean and maintain.
At Floor Coverings International, we are a shop at home service. We will bring the "store to your door" so that you can see the flooring and colors in your own home and lighting and color coordinate with your paint colors and decor. When it comes to sanding and refinishing, not only we will help guide you in color selections, but we will also test out a few colors for you on your floor. This is important because every floor is different, so it's best to see what the stain will actually look like on your own floors (rather than a tiny sample).
We offer both the standard refinishing process as well as a dustless sanding system. Dustless sanding costs a bit extra, but many customers feel it's worth it, especially if they have someone with allergies in their household. We offer both oil and water based polyurethane, and we will help you understand the pros and cons on each method.
We are proud of our work, but don't rely on our word...ask our customers! We have won the Angie's list Super Service award 2 years in a row, and you can even check our google reviews online. And, we will gladly provide with a list of over 30 customers to call.
Our estimates are always free. So, when you're ready to refinish your hardwood floors in Chappaqua NY 10514, call us at 914-937-2950 and let us "bring the store to your door."

Over the last 5 months I've developed a series of trend reports for flooring. I thought it would be helpful to organize all of these in one place. Some are organized by flooring type (e.g. hardwood, carpet), some by room and then several general trends. While these are specifically targeted for Westchester NY home owners, I think many of these trends hold across many parts of the country. Hope this is helpful.
