Wood and Tile Floors: Luxury or Necessity?

How important is it to pick the right flooring? Are wood and tile floors important in today’s real estate market?

A flooring contractor once told me that flooring is the most important thing in a house. The reason he gave is, whether you like or not, you will have to use the floor. He had a point. So while you are choosing flooring for your home, you should make sure to get the right flooring. At Domain Homes, we install wood and tile floors regularly. All of our homes get ceramic tile in the kitchen, bathrooms, and laundry rooms at a minimum, unless a buyer chooses to use a different flooring surface like wood. Our customers love the availability of style, color, and upgrade options offered for our wood and tile floors.

Wood and tile floors are not only aesthetically pleasing, but they also add value. Because of their durability and ease of cleaning, wood and tile floors have just about become a must have feature for the majority of house hunters. Wood and tile floors last longer while carpet and other surfaces require constant upkeep and periodic replacement. Wood and tile floors are generally considered the best investment for the resale value of a home.

In our new Domain Discovery Center opening in South Tampa next week, we will have many of these options on display for customers to interact with and to gain inspiration for their new homes in Tampa Bay. On Super Sunday, February 2, the Domain Discovery Center will be open for business. We have a party scheduled for Tampa area Realtors from 1-4 PM, immediately followed by a party for our existing homeowners and the public. Visitors are sure to notice the gorgeous flooring throughout, particularly the unique design of the flooring in the Hospitality Area. Our Design Specialist, Jon Behr, integrated the best of both wood and tile floors in the design. The ceramic tile with a diagonal lay is inlaid with a faux wood porcelain tile that compliments the hardwood in the adjacent family room. The result is “It gives the space a rich, warm feel,” according to Jon.

This is just one of the inspirational features you will experience at the Domain Discovery Center. We would love for you to join us on Sunday for the grand unveiling. Since our opening falls on the same day as the Super Bowl, we are calling our event the Super Pre Kickoff Grand Opening. We will have plenty of food, drinks, snacks, and you won’t miss a minute of the pre-game action thanks to seven flat screen TVs all around the Domain Discovery Center. The Discovery Center is located at 5701 S MacDill Ave, Tampa, FL 33611. For more details or to get a list of our available homes featuring wood and tile floors, give us a call at (813) 413-4154.
