In many ways, there’s no right or wrong season for buying wood flooring. The buying and installation of wood flooring really is an all year round process now. After all, the days are gone when people used to do serious spring-cleaning and take that opportunity to replace the furnishings that they were planning to change. That said, although year-round it’s a good time to buy wood flooring, now truly is a great time. So why is now better than any other time to buy your wood flooring?
The wood flooring sector is now hugely competitive
The whole wood flooring industry, online and off has become hugely competitive and this increased competition means lower prices. There has arguably never been a time that the wood flooring sector has been more competitive. What this means from a consumer point of view that the deals that are to be had out there right now have rarely been seen before. While you still need to shop carefully to make sure that you’re not getting cheap flooring cheap, but you’re getting good quality flooring at a good price, there is no doubt that this competition has driven prices for quality products to a pretty much all time low.
The business year-end is nigh
It’s getting towards the end of the business year and there are plenty of wooden floor suppliers who are seeking to rid themselves of stock and boost their year-end sales. What this means is that at this time of year, there are some great deals to be had on wood flooring. In fact, if your wooden floor supplier doesn’t have a deal on offer, it’s well worth remembering that there’s nothing to be lost by negotiating. After all, they can only say “No”!
There has never been more choice
The significant increase in competition we mentioned earlier in the wood flooring industry has not only given rise to a downward spiral in prices, but has also increased the amount of choice you have available to you. What you’ll find is that more and more wood flooring companies are really seeking out unusual flooring options to convince their buyers that their offering is better than their competitors. In effect, what this means is that you’ll get a whole host of run-of-the-mill wood flooring suppliers offering run-of-the-mill options, but here and there, you’ll get companies like Wood and Beyond who have really gone the extra mile to seek out something different for you.
A couple of things that we’ve got on offer at the moment that really sets us apart from our competitors, include this completely convincing distressed wood flooring that you’d almost never believe isn’t old. And the other really unusual option we have is this chevron flooring, which will add French chateau charm to even the most humble abode. It’s by offering products such as these that we really set ourselves apart from the rest.
Fitted before winter really sets in
There’s no getting away from the fact that it’s better to get inside work done before the conditions outside get too cold and too dirty under foot. For this reason, it’s well worth getting your wood flooring ordered right now and that way you can have the fitting organised to take place well before the time when there’s a risk of snow or slush outside.
Have your house looking great for Christmas
There are less than 80 days to Christmas and it’s going to be here before we know it. Christmas is a time of year that we like to look our best (which is why the diet industry does so well in November and December!) and we want our home to look its best for the guests we’re going to receive. Even if it’s just friends and family that are coming to share the festivities with you, knowing that your new floor will be waiting proudly to show your home off to its best is a great feeling.
So, if you’re in the process of shopping around for a new wood floor and are hesitating for whatever reason, these points really are well worth bearing in mind. In our view, there really has never been a better time to buy your wood flooring than right now.
