Your floors are one of the first things people will notice about your home. When your floors look beautiful, it is a guaranteed way to make an amazing first impression. At Modern Blu Austin, we want to make sure your floors are both beautiful and highly functional. The right floors have the power to make your space cooler, warmer, larger, cozier, and more luxurious. Your floors can impact the value of your home in the long run as well. When you sell your home, floors are one of the features your buyers will be sure to notice. For these reasons, quality flooring is an upfront investment that pays off tremendously in the long run.

Some of the flooring types we offer at Modern Blu Austin include:

• Porcelain or ceramic tile: When you think of porcelain, you might imagine a delicate material, but porcelain is one of the most durable flooring options available because it is resistant to many of the pressures the environment will bring. Porcelain tiles are usually frost-resistant and frost-proof, resistant to stains, scratches, and moisture, and they are easy to maintain. Porcelain also comes in a wide range of colors and textures, so you can truly make your floor to fit your own unique style. Porcelain tiles are typically used in the kitchen and on bathroom walls and floors as well as in showers.
• Natural stone: Natural stone floors bring a sense of elegance and luxury into the home, while bringing a unique sense of the outdoors at the same time. Popular types of natural stone flooring are slate, marble, limestone, travertine, granite, and sandstone. Natural stone floors are durable, long-lasting, and easy to maintain. In addition, they can be installed over radiant heating, which helps make them cozy to walk on in the winter!
• Vinyl: Vinyl floors are a versatile choice because they can be designed to look like other flooring styles, like hardwood, tile, and stone. The primary types of vinyl flooring are sheet flooring and tile flooring. Sheet flooring is usually more water resistant and provides an easier installation process, while vinyl tile imitates the aesthetic of a ceramic tile floor. Vinyl flooring is highly durable and does well in an environment with lots of people coming through. This style of flooring is also comfortable to stand on and provides noise reduction in the area, making it a great choice for both families and businesses.
• Concrete: Concrete floors are a stylish choice for indoor flooring. Many people are surprised to know that concrete floors are actually quite easy to clean and are water resistant when they are properly sealed. Concrete floors are a great way to add cool tones to a room and give it a modern feel. They combine form and function to bring a renewed sense of uniqueness to any room.
• Hardwood: Because of its beauty and long-term ROI, hardwood flooring remains a favorite of homeowners. If you are looking for a way to instantly improve the beauty of any room, hardwood floors may be the way to go. More and more homeowners are replacing the carpet for hardwood floors, appreciating their ability to withstand significant amounts of wear and tear. When well-maintained, hardwood floors can potentially last a lifetime. Popular choices for hardwood floors are oak, maple, hickory, and Brazilian cherry.
• Cork: Your wine bottles are not the only ones with corks. Many homeowners are installing cork floors as well, and for good reason. Cork floors have many benefits including easy maintenance, sound absorption, warmth, and comfort. Plus, the fact that they are a plant-based solution makes them an attractive, eco-friendly option for many homeowners. Homeowners like that the latest cork options on the market has evolved to mimic the beautiful appearance of materials like hardwood and marble.
• Bamboo: You may have never thought you could walk on grass in your own home, but with bamboo floors, you can! Bamboo floors are made of a grass that is processed to produce the beautiful floors. The strands of grass are shredded and pressed back together. The appearance of bamboo is similar to hardwood, but it has a more uniform, striped appearance that gives it a contemporary feel. Similar to hardwood floors, bamboo flooring is durable and strong. Although bamboo is naturally a light material, it can be carbonized to darken the surface.
