With the growing popularity of home remodeling shows, savvy homeowners are looking for easy ways to achieve a new look at minimal cost.
For many of these homeowners, one of the most economical facelifts that can have a huge impact on a room is right at their feet -- with their wood floors.
Existing wood floors can receive an entirely new look, in an economical fashion, with custom stains.
Looking for a more contemporary style for your home? Light colored stains can give new life to an old wood floor.
Want to change the color of your floor to make your room appear more traditional? Consider restaining your wood floors to a warm, medium-toned color.
Thinking about a more formal decor? Dark stains can give your floors a stately new look.
No matter what your existing wood floor, chances are that you can achieve an entirely new look for your room without replacing your existing flooring. It's as easy as choosing the look you want, and finding a qualified wood flooring professional to help you achieve that look. The National Wood Flooring Association recommends that you consult with a wood flooring professional when considering restaining your existing wood floors.
