Replacing old carpet with a hybrid engineered floor will transform any property.
As interior design trends evolve, so do our choices in flooring. Shag carpet was a popular choice back in the 70s, but as time passes, it may lose its appeal and become worn out. If you’re looking to give your space a fresh, modern look, upgrading to a hybrid-engineered floor can make a remarkable difference.
In this blog post, we’ll explore the transformation from shag carpet to sleek engineered flooring and how it can enhance the overall aesthetic of your space.
Out with the Old: The Downsides of Shag Carpet
Shag carpet may have had its heyday, but as the years go by, it can start to show signs of wear and tear. Stains, matting, and a dated appearance can detract from the overall appeal of your space. Additionally, shag carpets can be challenging to clean and may not be suitable for households with allergies or asthma due to their ability to trap dust and allergens.
The Beauty of Hybrid-Engineered Flooring
Replacing shag carpet with a hybrid-engineered floor offers a multitude of benefits. Engineered flooring is crafted with layers of real wood veneer on top of a high-density fiberboard (HDF) or plywood core, providing a stable and durable foundation. Here’s why hybrid-engineered flooring is an excellent choice:
Versatility
Hybrid-engineered flooring comes in a wide range of styles, colours, and finishes, allowing you to find the perfect match for your space. Whether you prefer a classic, rustic, or contemporary look, there’s an option to suit every taste.
Durability
Engineered flooring is highly durable and resistant to scratches, moisture, and temperature fluctuations. Its sturdy construction ensures that it can withstand the demands of everyday life, making it an ideal choice for high-traffic areas.
Easy Maintenance
Unlike shag carpet, engineered flooring is easy to clean and maintain. Regular sweeping or vacuuming, along with occasional damp mopping, is usually all it takes to keep it looking pristine.
A Stylish Transformation: Blackbutt-Engineered Flooring
In our video case study, we showcase the remarkable flooring transformation that took place. We opted for blackbutt-engineered flooring to replace the outdated shag carpet. Blackbutt is a beautiful Australian hardwood known for its durability, warm tones, and distinctive grain patterns. The rich, earthy hues of blackbutt flooring create a sophisticated backdrop that can seamlessly blend with various interior styles.
After the installation, the new blackbutt-engineered flooring brought a fresh and refined look to the space. It not only replaced the worn-out carpet but also enhanced the overall aesthetic of the room.
