best flooring type for high traffic areas

Like most homes, there are high traffic areas from the hallway to the bedroom. Through the living room into the kitchen. How do you know the best flooring types for these runway areas? Read on to find out!

Luxury Vinyl


Both elegant and durable, luxury vinyl tile is still having a moment in most homes across the nation. We recommend Duraceramic and Alterna, as both brands we carry here in our store. Both brand options have the same look as ceramic or wood. They can be grouted and sealed with a lower cost and higher durability. 

Classic Carpet and Nylon Fibers


If you can’t get past the comfort of classic carpet for your home and busy rooms, then make sure to choose the right fiber. Nylon is the most common of all carpet fibers, and its resilience makes it a popular choice for areas of the home that have high foot traffic. 

Another piece of the carpet puzzle to take into account in busy rooms are the stain-proof, and spill proof for children and pets. SmartStrand carpet from Mohawk includes stain resistance engineered into the fiber. That stain resistance will never wear or wash off. SmartStrand carpet from Mohawk never needs to be retreated with stain protectors, even after a steam cleaning.
