When remodeling your home, you will have to make several decisions. What flooring type to you want in your kitchen? What floor do you want in your bathroom? What floor do you want in your living room? What color do you want to paint your walls? The list can go on and on, but just do your research ahead of time and you will be just fine. We are going to discuss some tips regarding remodeling your home and on how to pair wall colors with different types of flooring the RIGHT way.

Pair Light Colors with Warm Hardwoods

Warm hardwoods consist of yellow, orange or red undertones. As you you go through your remodeling process, be sure to choose lighter colors for your walls, if you are going to use warmer hardwoods for your floors. For example, using a yellow or a lighter green or blue paint on your walls, paired with a warm hardwood floor would be a FANTASTIC choice. Pairing warm hardwoods with light colors in your NEW home can make you and your family feel at ease while relaxing in your freshly remodeled home.

Pair Dark Colors with Cool Hardwoods

Cool hardwoods consist of gray or taupe undertones. Cool hardwoods go GREAT with darker colors, such as dark blue, green, or gray. The possibilities are endless, as you know there are many color options out there. We at the best flooring store at the Lake of the Ozarks just recommend that you choose a darker paint for your walls if you are choosing one of our affordable hardwood floors in Osage Beach that are cool. Your home is your OASIS. Define your unique style and taste when remodeling your home. Show your guests your personality in your remodeling choices. Dark blue paint for you walls can represent knowledge and integrity. Black can represent elegance and formality. Dark green can represent ambition. Different colors have different meanings, so do your research when choosing.

Suggestions for Your Kitchen 

• Hardwood
• Tile
• Laminate
• Bamboo
• Cork
• Vinyl
• Linoleum

While there are many choices of flooring out there, it can be difficult to know which are pet friendly floors at the Lake of the Ozarks. Our furry friends are very cute and great company, but accidents do happen! It's important to know what your best options for flooring are, when owning a pet. We are going to discuss a few great options that can make your life easier when owning a pet that resides indoors. We're also going to point out a couple flooring options that aren't so great for pets.

Good Choices

Bamboo

Bamboo flooring can be a great choice for pets. It's harder than hardwood and works well in high traffic areas. It is stain resistant, so when your fur pal has an accident, we all know it happens, this type of floor can be better to have. Bamboo is very hard and it will save you money in the long run when compared to repairing other types of flooring.

Cork

Stone tile

Vinyl

Poor Choices

Carpet

Hardwood 

We're continuing our Barefoot series this week! While we've covered Going Barefoot in the Bedroom, Going Barefoot in Your Bathroom, Going Barefoot in Your Kitchen, and Going Barefoot in Your Living Room, this week we are going to discuss Going Barefoot in Your Basement. There are many different possible uses for a basement - game/media room, indoor bar, storage, personal gym, home office, guest suite, basement apartment, etc. Whatever your use may be, it's important to understand what types of flooring may WORK or NOT WORK for your basement.

Basement Flooring Do's

Basement Flooring Don'ts

You may want to avoid solid hardwood flooring and laminate flooring made with a fiberboard core that hasn't been treated for moisture resistance. Both of these types of flooring can absorb moisture and warp/buckle. Carpet can also be a poor choice due to the risk of it getting wet and molding.

Barefoot Floors can help you no matter what type of flooring you choose. Our friendly, knowledgeable staff can assist you in finding affordable flooring at the Lake of the Ozarks, that works best for YOU and YOUR FAMILY. Come by and see us, we look forward to your visit!
