By changing the flooring you can change the look of a room completely and influence how prospective buyers will see the size, shape and function of that room.

Flooring to help you sell

According to house-selling expert Sarah Beeny, getting the flooring right when you’re selling a house is one of her 5 top tips. ‘…make sure surfaces are cleaned and focus on floors, too. A sparkling floor will instantly lift the room.’

That’s not her only tip either when it comes to getting a house ready to sell. Sarah also recommends neutral colours to make it easy for the buyer to adapt to their own tastes. ‘Neutral colours won’t put any buyer off. Potential buyers walking through your home will be able to plan to put their own stamp on the house without having to remove yours first.’*
A small investment on the right floor could make the sales process much quicker and might even increase the value of your property. 

Improve to move

According to Sarah Beeny, improving the condition of your house with some fine cosmetic touches can add up to £5000 to the asking price of the average home. Sarah’s tips include removing clutter and ensuring that first impressions count with a good clean garden, path and doorway, but once someone is in the house it’s the condition of the walls and floors that make all the difference. They’re what you’re going to be leaving behind after all.

A clean and tidy house sells quicker than a house that looks dirty or worn. A quick refresh of worn, damaged or stained carpets can make all the difference when it comes to a quick sale.

Flooring Trends

As the saying goes, the floor is a ‘statement piece’ in any home that can never go out fashion. It needs to stay current and be adaptable to changing trends.

Trends are important but it depends on the reason for you putting down new flooring. For example, light and blonde woods have been fashionable but for 2018 there’s a trend towards greys and dark brown tones. Bolder colours are en vogue for flooring as brighter colours are used for accessories.

Dark wood floors are perfect for both the clean, modern look but also for the eclectic and inspired room. 

However, if you’re freshening up the flooring to sell a property you might want to stick to light neutral colours to give the impression of a home that will be easy to personalise.

 

At Floor Style, we understand that because you are moving, you do not want to spend a lot on improving, as you are going to be leaving it all behind.

Changing the flooring is not as expensive as you might think. Here are a few tips on how to maximise the look.

 

• Feltback carpets start from as little as £4.95mt2.
• Keep it neutral and impersonal.
• Use the same flooring all over to make it look bigger.
• Rugs can add a bit of colour and style, and you can take them with you.
