HGTV Stars On Their Top Picks For Floors In 2024
By EMILY KAMMERLOHR
Christina Hall
Christina Hall thinks luxury vinyl is one of the best floor materials. "Ten years ago [...] luxury vinyl didn't look like this. It looked basic," Hall said on HGTV.
In addition to its new high-class appearance, luxury vinyl flooring is very durable. This makes it a great fit for much-used areas of the home like entry halls and kitchens.
David Bromstad
"My Lottery Dream Home" star David Bromstad told HGTV, "I love wood floors in a beach house, especially the ones that have that weathered feel."
Even if you don't live near the water, wood flooring is best for chic, homey spaces. If wood isn't in your budget, Bromstad suggests "porcelain tile that has the look of wood."
Jenn Todryk
Jenn Todryk of "No Demo Reno" suggests light-colored hardwood floors, saying on her show, "They lighten up the space. They make it look bigger, look brighter."
Leanne Ford
"Restored by the Fords" star Leanne Ford is famous for her love of the color white, so it’s no surprise that the designer thinks white-washed wooden flooring is best.
Jenny Marrs
Jenny Marrs recommends people with busy lifestyles choose scratch-resistant flooring like non-glossy white oak. She wrote on her blog, "It's great for kids and animals."
Matte wooden flooring tends to not only hide dirt and grime more easily but also is overall simpler to clean. The grain of the wood also gives the space a nice touch
of character.
