Hardwood Flooring and Pets: A Winning Combination

Owning Pets Makes Hardwood Flooring an Even Better Investment

Our beloved pets are always a large part of our lives. Especially when our hardwood flooring and pets are both underfoot simultaneously. Making sure that they are comfortable, healthy and well cared for is a large part of our responsibility to our pets. We are also obligated to make sure they pose no health risks to us in return.

With many pets, dander and shed fur can be a genuine problem. Hardwood flooring allows you to keep the environment in your home as clean and healthy as possible. A well maintained hardwood floor provides a no place to hide for allergens, mites or anything else your pets might carry in on their paws.

A Clean Home is a Healthy Home, Hardwood Flooring Makes That Easy

I have written extensively on the health benefits and ease of cleaning your hardwood floors offer you. Once installed and sealed properly, your hardwood floors act as a barrier and a stop sign to the myriad health issues which can hide in carpeting.

Because fluids are easy to completely remove from your hardwood floors (and let’s face it, sometimes pets leak), mold, mildew, and pet odors are far less likely to appear. A hardwood floor is also a better long-term investment from a wear and tear point of view. Pets can fray and destroy the edges of your carpeting in less time than it takes to say “stop that!”

Hardwood Flooring and Pets – A Winning Combination

A pet is a companion, a best friend, a protector. Pets can lower our heart rate, reduce the effects of stress, brighten our lives and compensate us in a myriad of different ways for their simple care and feeding. Putting hardwood flooring and pets together provides both you and your pets with a safe, solid, healthy environment to live in.

Here at Artisan Hardwood Floors, making sure that your home is as healthy and safe as it is beautiful, is a large part of why do we do what we do. We know that a properly, professionally installed hardwood floor is the best thing you can do for yourself, your family and your pets. Hardwood floors are also an excellent long-term investment for your pocketbook.
