What are the different types of flooring?
Both soft and hard surface flooring materials have something for every need, style, and budget. To narrow down your needs and that of the room, do a little research, and you'll find the right one for your installation.
Carpet: always a popular choice
You’ll see hundreds of samples, all from different mills at our flooring store in Kearney, NE. Technological innovations have created larger color palettes and digital patterning; today's carpets have increased durability and stain resistance with pet-and-kid-friendly, hypoallergenic and sustainable versions. Keep in mind that carpets have subcategories and different grades so, when comparing, shop level-to-level.
Time to revisit vinyl!
Think again if you think vinyl flooring is the same thing from decades past. Today's vinyl comes in a wide variety of colors and designs, including wood, stone, and tile looks, as well as checkerboards, herringbones, chevrons, colorful geometrics, and more. With affordability, high style, and countless functions such as waterproof capabilities, durability, and easy care, this makes it one of the most popular flooring.
The premium version (still budget-friendly) called luxury vinyl is five times thicker and offers an additional design option of being cut into planks or groutable squares. Whether original sheet or luxury, vinyl provides fantastic value for the decorating dollar, it can be installed by glue-down, loose lay, or floating floor techniques.
Other options include hardwood, solid and engineered versions, budget-friendly and glamorous laminate, tile, and waterproof flooring.
