What Type of Flooring is Best for Cold Weather?

While the summer was nice while it lasted, we all need to be prepared for the good, bad, and ugly that’ll come after. Along with the colder weather coming, you should be prepared in every sense down to your flooring. Choosing flooring that is great for these types of climates will ensure that you can retain some extra heat this fall and winter. So, what are some of the best flooring for cold weather? We’ll tell ya!

Carpet

Carpet is almost a no-brainer when it comes to flooring because it’s soft, will keep your feet warm, and the fibers of the carpet can help to make up for heat loss. Carpet is one of the best ways to keep your home nice and toasty throughout the season. Even through the summer, it’s perfect all year round!

Rugs

For your spaces with epoxy floors and concrete, adding a rug to give it that warm and cozy feeling will help tremendously with heat and make sure your feet aren’t iceboxes when walking around. Investing in a big rug that will cover up a good amount of space is a great option! If your concrete is decorative, sparsely placing rugs throughout will help, too!

Vinyl 

Vinyl flooring can be an excellent choice for flooring due to its resistance to expanding and contracting with the weather. There are also ways to put radiant heating under your floor for extra warmth. 

Concrete

Since we’re Cutting Edge Decorative Concrete, we’re a bit biased about our love for concrete. While we don't recommend this during the winter for your living spaces, now is the perfect time to pour concrete for your patio or garage before it gets too cold. 

Cutting Edge is here for you for all of your concrete needs, and we will help to give you exactly what you want, however you want it.
