New Carpeting for a Cozier Home This Fall

Fall brings back the “Brrrrr!”
Are you ready for the transition from summer’s warm, sunny days to the brisk chill of fall? Soon, we’ll be reaching for extra layers of clothing and blankets to get comfortable around the home. With dropping temperatures, tile and wood flooring can quickly become uninviting. That’s why we suggest adding new carpeting for a cozier home this fall!

Your family deserves warm, cozy carpet!
At Next Generation Repairs carpet installation is one of our specialties. When your family starts complaining that their favorite chill zone has become just plain chilly, soft, warm carpeting will be a welcome relief to cold feet. There’s nothing like the lush inviting feel of fresh carpet on the toes. If your family is like most Middle Tennessee families, stretching out and cuddling up on the floor in front of the television is a favorite relaxation pastime. An ice cold wood or tile floor is not only uncomfortable, it can also lead to back soreness and even strain.     

Carpeted floors cut heating costs.
Energy savings is another great benefit of a carpeted floor. Carpet fibers do not transfer cool temperatures the way tile and wood do, making it much more comfortable to the touch. Additionally, the installation of carpet and carpet padding adds an extra layer of insulation, causing a room to feel naturally warmer. Typically, that means you can set the thermostat several degrees lower without anyone complaining. As everyone knows, lower thermostat settings make energy bills so much nicer!

Thinking About Installing Natural Hardwood Floors?

Natural hardwood for your home?
If you’ve been thinking about installing new hardwood floors in your home, we say go for it! After all, hardwood floors are an extremely popular, durable choice. In fact, there’s no other flooring material that provides the natural warmth and character of natural hardwood. You just feel it when you walk into a room.

How long does natural hardwood flooring last?
With proper care, natural hardwood flooring will age gracefully and beautifully - just like you - with just as many stories to tell. Hardwood flooring has been known to last a lifetime. It is very durable, and can be refinished, sanded, and stained numerous times over the course of a lifetime. It also repairs very well after normal wear and tear or even harsh treatment that would spell the end of other flooring surfaces.

What about refinishing natural hardwood?
It’s generally recommended that a hardwood floor be refinished about every 8-12 years. The actually frequency that’s right for your flooring will depend upon the kind of traffic and treatment your flooring experiences. Regular maintenance is important. The type of agent you choose for cleaning your natural hardwood flooring is important as well. Traditional vinegar and water  is a popular solution, however, vinegar is acidic and can break down a finish over time.

How should I clean hardwood flooring?
It is recommended to use a less harsh cleaning agent in order  to ensure the finish of your hardwood flooring will last as long as possible. The less frequently you need to  refinish your floor, the more durable your hardwood floor will remain. Some prefer to skip the refinishing altogether, enjoying the nostalgic feel of the timeworn rustic look that develops over the years.

Whatever your preference...

We welcome custom projects, and just as the name says, repairs are also welcomed! For all your home renovation needs, contact Next Generation Repairs today at (615) 633-2080.
