One of the best parts of spring and summer is enjoying it all out on a deck right outside your door.

As you’re spring cleaning your home, it may be time to spruce it up with a different look. One way to freshen the look of a room is by changing the flooring, Moore said. For those who find this challenging, 50 Floor has an option that brings an expert to your home with numerous floor samples to choose from. This will give you a chance to see what the flooring samples look like in your house’s natural light, instead of under the harsh fluorescent store lights. She said any type of wood flooring is timeless and can really open up a room.

The professionals at All Brick Design suggest making your repairs now, because it’s cost-effective during the spring season. When it comes to designing your walkway, All Brick Design says that this year’s trends range from mostly grays to intersecting brown stones.

If, during this time, you’ve been taking a good hard look at your home, perhaps you’ve been thinking you could use a change to make it a little cozier. Tiffany Moore, with 50 Floor, explained how just one change with new flooring can give your home a fresh new style and feel. For instance, replacing old carpeting with hardwood, vinyl, tile or laminate can give a room a sleek new look. Or if you want something warm and cozy, replace your old tile with new carpet. Did you know you can shop at home and see how your selection looks with the rest of the furniture?
