Flooring deserves valuable attention and care just like any other decor element. With the emergence of newer technologies, floors can now be tough, safe and eye-catching — all in the same breath.
Choosing the right floor for any space is important as it takes part in tying the overall look and functionality together. Apart from aesthetic considerations, the amount of traffic, function of space, required finish and safety features must be considered.
