Choosing the Right Flooring for Each Room

Flooring isn’t just about looks, it’s the foundation of how a room feels and functions. Different spaces call for different materials, and at LegacyBuild, we help homeowners choose floors that are durable, practical, and perfectly matched to each room’s use.

1. Kitchen

• Best options: Tile, vinyl, or engineered wood

• Why: Water-resistant, easy to clean, and tough against spills and foot traffic

2. Living Room

• Best options: Hardwood, engineered wood, or luxury vinyl planks

• Why: Adds warmth, elegance, and comfort underfoot; holds up to daily use

3. Bathroom

• Best options: Porcelain tile, natural stone, or waterproof vinyl

• Why: Handles moisture and prevents slipping when sealed correctly

4. Bedroom

• Best options: Carpet, hardwood, or cork

• Why: Comfortable, quiet, and cozy for relaxation and sleep

5. Basement

• Best options: Vinyl, tile, or sealed concrete

• Why: Moisture-resistant and mold-preventing in below-grade areas

6. Home Office

• Best options: Laminate, carpet tiles, or cork

• Why: Durable and sound-absorbing, creating a calm workspace

Tips for Every Room

• Consider lifestyle factors: pets, kids, allergies

• Look at maintenance needs and long-term durability

• Always sample test colors in natural and artificial lighting before committing

Conclusion: The right flooring is a balance of function and feeling. At LegacyBuild, we help you walk confidently into every room, on floors built to last and made to fit your life.
