Fresh favorites for installing
Right now, folks installing new hardwood floors are choosing wider boards (planks that are 7-12 inches wide) because they make rooms look bigger and more open. (Flooring stores) Light natural tones—like blonde oak or soft ash—are also very popular. They brighten rooms and have a calming look. (Timberwolf Hardwood Floors) Another trend: textures. Hand-scraped or wire-brushed finishes are appealing because they hide wear and scratch marks more easily and feel good underfoot. And good news: sustainability is more than a buzzword. Homeowners are looking for wood from responsibly-managed forests and finishes with fewer VOCs.
What’s new in refinishing & sanding
If you already have hardwood floors and want to refresh them, sanding and refinishing is key. Trends now favor matte or satin finishes rather than high-gloss. These flatter finishes show fewer scratches and feel more natural. (The Spruce) Refinishing work is paying more attention to detail: making sure the old floor surface is cleaned up well, using better sealers and stains, and honoring the original wood’s character rather than covering it up. Also, textured refinishes (wire-brushed, lightly distressed) are in because they give the floors personality and are low-maintenance. (Flooring stores)
A few handy tips
When installing new floors: ask about wide-plank options and choose a wood species you like that will hold up over time.
For refinishing: check how deep your floor can be sanded (some floors only allow one more sanding).
Consider the finish: If you have kids or pets, a matte or textured finish will be more forgiving.
If sustainability matters to you: ask about certifications, low-VOC finishes, and locally-sourced wood.
Lastly: Pick a look that you’ll still like in five or ten years. Trends are fun, but timeless style goes a long way.
In short: Whether you’re installing brand-new hardwood or giving an existing floor a new life, go for natural tones, wider boards, textured finishes and eco-friendly materials. With the right choices, your floors will look great and stand the test of time.
