Choosing the right flooring: Where to start

March 23, 2026

It’s not just about how it looks — it’s about how you live

One of the most common questions we get is: “What flooring should I choose?”

The answer isn’t always straightforward — because the best flooring isn’t just about style, it’s about how your home works day to day.

For example, a busy kitchen or hallway needs something durable and easy to clean, which is why many homeowners choose vinyl or LVT. On the other hand, bedrooms and living rooms are often about comfort, where carpets can create a warmer, more relaxed feel.

Laminate and LVT are great all-rounders, offering a modern look with practical benefits, especially for families or homes with pets.

The key is to think about how each room is used, not just how you want it to look.

At Happy Feet, we always encourage customers to take a step back and consider their lifestyle first. When you do that, the right flooring choice becomes much clearer — and you end up with something that not only looks great, but works for years to come.
