When buying my first property, I attended countless open homes to find the perfect fit, one that had room to develop and add value through a renovation. When I finally purchased my home in 2020, the renovation was already underway as I had it all planned!
To start with, the interior of the house needed to be renovated first. The first thing to be done is to remove the old carpets from the floor. Finding hardwood floors underneath the old carpet, got me thinking about what options I had with flooring, what would be the best decision cost-wise as well as for the end goal, which was to add value. In the end, I hired a professional from the company Townsville floor sanding which offered a very competitive quote and resulted in stunning hardwood floors in my renovated home, this article will look at the reasons why I decided hardwood floors were the best flooring option for my renovation.
