Drab, Dull & Dated - Budget friendly flooring solutions

By
Home Stager with Renaissance Home Staging & Redesign

As a Home Stager I'm always in pursuit of solutions for clients, and I recently discovered dramatic budget friendly flooring solutions, or "squares".   In this era of "distressed", I was looking for a way for sellers to add impact to a room.    I found a company called FLOR, and realized there is now a world of flooring options for sellers who don't have large budgets!  They even offer to send you floor samples so you can make sure the colors match!

More importantly, I can now suggest budget friendly flooring solutions that can be delivered in a box right to your door.  These budget friendly flooring solutions come in a rainbow of colors, textures, designs and can be configured to any size room!            Budget Friendly Flooring

These budget friendly flooring solutions are rugged, and made of nylon or wool, so they will stand up to years of wear and tear, and can be taken with the seller.  What I like is that this budget friendly flooring solution gives a room the WOW factor so many realtors and buyers are looking for in a listing. You can insert pops of color to add warmth, drama, and provide a little "eye candy" for those MLS buyers.   This is such a simple solution, and it's affordable. For a few hundred dollars you can  completely transform the look and feel of a room. The squares are easy to assemble, so you don't have to be a design wizard to figure it out!

Flooring Solutions on a budget 

Challenges like damaged hardwood floors could be painted, and a few "squares" added.  Cement slabs could be stained.  But this is one of the simpliest budget friendly flooring solutions I have yet to find, and it will help solve a variety of issues as well as add  visual interest.  It's not always easy to find rugs, so this could reduce shopping time substantially.

Liz - WOW!!!  Very interesting!  I'll have to remember this the next time someone asks me about area rugs.  Oddly enough, I get asked this quite often and I've been recommending an online rug store where I have purchased many of my own area rugs for my home.

Donna.... The colors and textures are what sold me.  Nice clean looks, updated, and easy to install.  They connected on the corners with "dots", and you can configure them perfectly to odd shaped rooms.  I love the splash of color they add to a room.  They are affordable, and can be used in so many home styles.

Hi Donna--I think FLOR has some really great designs, yet I have still never had an application to use them.  Nice to know you have had good success with this produce.

Janet,.. Simple, and affordable seem to be the mantra today.  High priced solutions can scare the average seller.  I have been "collecting" lots of brochures, and samples, so clients feel more at ease about suggestions like this. Their imaginations are probably just as bad as many buyers'.   You may want to keep this in your bag of tricks

Kevin...always remember that even a short sale needs to move as fast as possible, so staging a home can always help the odds that it gets more offers, or a better price, and a price the banks may agree on.  take care.

Teri,..   What's great about this, is they can be packed up easily.   And if you get the panels soils they can be cleaned easily.  Since they are made of nylon or wool, they are so durable for the money.   I think your son will like the quality.  Some of the rug styles literally have dozens of colors!

Liz, this is a great resource and I love that you can replace the tiles-great for homes with pets and for kids spaces-clean and contemporary looking.

Joanna, I like the idea of being to replace a damaged rug.   I like the fact that it's easy to pack up and move, too. Wendy...  I love the colors.   There are some great looks, and textures.  I think these would be fantastic in a loft, or condo because often the spaces are so challenging.
