Mullican flooring has come far from their beginnings as an exclusively Appalachian-sourced flooring company. The company was founded in 1985 with the goal of being better than everyone else at making hardwood flooring, and today they have grown into an international powerhouse that sources materials from all over the globe, with lines of exotic woods and specialty products.

Mullican floors are made with a process is truly impressive. Instead of spot-checking the lumber, Mullican goes over every inch of it during every stage of the process. The wood is pre-dressed to the same thickness, stacked to be slow dried to prevent distortions, then ripped to remove any bend. Then, each board is kiln-dried and checked by a moisture meter.

This attention to detail is the reason Mullican products – both solid and engineered – are considered top-tier flooring worldwide. The floors are easy to install, and their customers save considerable amounts of money on labor, waste and returns.

With the great number of American and exotic offerings, painstaking quality and environmental guarantees, a Mullican floor will improve any room

What about an old floor?  You could have a floor or floors in your home that are damaged and really are old.  Or, you can install or refinish floors to look old on purpose.  Hardwood that’s made to look old may be stronger because real old hardwood could have been damaged through the years, from normal wear and tear or even water.  Today, we can purchase engineered planks that are old-looking in several different ways such as beaten up or stained with an antique look.  We can also buff off old and stained finish on real hardwood then apply a smooth or antique look finish.  There are a lot of options and at floormall.com you’ll be able to find some answers for questions you may have regarding the process.

Real antique hardwood can also be reclaimed.  There are barns in the country and even reclaimed or recycled lumber and hardware stores and lots.  People here take old wood that has a lot of life left in it and make it smooth and even and of a fairly consistent size, then sell it to people wanting the genuine article.  There are even companies that recycle timber which has been sunken at the bottom of a lake or river for a hundred years or more.  This is in logging areas that have usually been abandoned.  This wood has a beautiful sheen and texture to it because it’s been underwater.  A homeowner can install this wood into their homes and know that it is really old, and that it will add a fantastic look to their modern or period home.  At floormall.com they have a body of knowledge which anyone can access, and it has many tips on flooring and related products.

If you are refinishing your own hardwood floors, it’s good to see what thickness remains so you don’t find yourself buffing through to the back of the planks, and maybe even see daylight coming through!  If there’s enough thickness left for buffing and if you don’t own a floor buffer, then renting one is a great option.  After buffing and smoothing then you can seal and apply stain in the proper sequence and then finish as appropriate.  You may have a damaged section of flooring that needs replacing and this can be a little trickier.  Perhaps you have some saved sections of the flooring and then you can replace the damaged part, buff off and then re-stain the entire floor etc.  Check out what stain you want at floormall.com, as well as a huge selection of different hardwoods if you need to redo your entire floor.

Any which way you look at it, old floors, whether real or created, add ambience to any type of home.  Of course, you may decide on an entirely new type of floor for a brand new look.  See what floormall.com has to offer — and they have professional installers as well as all of the materials you could ever need!

Valentines Day and Flooring

Don’t know what to get your sweetie for Valentine’s Day?  What about a wonderful new floor in the bedroom or family room?  There are so many superior products out there today that choosing one that suits you, wears well for your lifestyle, and appeals to your esthetics will be easy.  Using a great website like floormall.com enables you to compare styles, products, brands, suitability, colors, and get info on the different flooring choices, plus decide upon many other factors.

Hardwood Flooring on Valentines Day

Real hardwood comes in so many varieties and widths and thicknesses and its durability is legendary.  Many houses, hundreds of years old, still retain their original hardwood floors.  If the hardwood is fairly thick, then these floors can be sanded and rebuffed and stained and repaired several times over.  Engineered wood is a layer of real wood over several base products.  Engineered wood can be made to look antique or weathered, because it is a top layer of real wood, like any solid hardwood out there.  Real hardwood as long as it’s not taken from rain forests or other protected areas, is a renewable and green resource, and especially if it’s recycled hardwood.  Recycled can come from barn wood, other houses or even ancient timber that was logged a hundred years ago and has until recently, lain on the bottom of a river or lake.  Because some of the trees that had been cut down back then were extremely old, these logs are exceptional in their beauty but can cost quite a bit more.  Engineered wood styles can be studied at a site such as floormall.com, and there you may also compare prices, availability and pros to install the flooring for you. 

Other choices for new flooring for your sweetie could be bamboo flooring, now available with lower VOC resins and in the standard lighter color, caramelized, and many strip variations; a gorgeous wall to wall room of carpeting or a great ethnic area rug or even carpet squares in a retro design; real stone or ceramic tiles (and these come in a huge variety of sizes and colors and durability); laminate flooring that looks like stone or wood; and other flooring in numerous materials and with a wide range of cost and other factors.   And, if you’ve ever looked through a pile of rugs at a big box store, you know how difficult that can be.  Checking out all of the styles on a great website like flooringmall.com is so much easier.
