When thinking about your staircase, where do you begin? What’s the best decision for your home and your family? As experts in flooring, Rivendell believes carpet is often the best way way forward and here are some of the key advantages to making this choice:

The flooring in our homes is more than just a surface to walk on; it sets the foundation for the entire ambiance and functionality of your space. For a family home, selecting the right flooring becomes even more crucial, as it must cater to various needs and activities of all its members. In this blog, we’ll guide you room by room, helping you make informed decisions to elevate your floor play and create a family-friendly haven.
Living Room:
As the heart of the home, the living room is a space for relaxation and entertainment. Consider options like carpeting or hardwood with area rugs. Carpeting provides comfort, noise reduction, and a cosy feel, perfect for family gatherings. On the other hand, hardwood floors add an elegant touch and are easier to clean, making them ideal if you have young children or pets. Rivendell also offers the option of natural flooring, such as bamboo (a great wood alternative), sisal, seagrass or jute. Not only are these an environmentally friendly option but they add texture and character to your room.
