Traditiona­l Hardwood Floors

Hardwood floors are one of the longest-lasting investment­s a homeowner can make in the materials that make up the surfaces of their home. It is tough and resilient, which has helped it remain at the top of the list of favorite flooring choices.

No matter what kind of flooring you choose, Coles’ profession­al designers will help you create the perfect look for your home.

hardwood can be refinished, providing you with a brand new surface time and time again. In addition, installing hardwood increases the value of your home, making it a great option for those with remodeling projects in their future.

Nylon vs. Polyester Carpet

When it comes to carpet, nylon and polyester are two of the most popular synthetic carpet fibers on the market. So what’s the difference? Polyester lacks nylon’s high resilience, and will typically begin to show signs of wear due to foot traffic in comparativ­ely less time. When it comes to stain resistance however, polyester takes the lead. Its hydrophobi­c fibers help the material itself repel liquid, whereas nylon easily absorb liquids and spills. No matter your choice, let Coles Fine Flooring help you make your home reflect your lifestyle.
