Magnus Anderson Hardwood Flooring

If you’re looking to increase your home’s value, or even just revamp your living space, consider installing hardwood floors.

Hardwood floors work especially well in living room and kitchen areas. They’re sleek and modern in appearance and make cleaning a breeze! Because dirt and dust won’t accumulate on hardwood floors, and they are much more resistant to staining, a quick vacuuming and mopping routine once a week is all you need. There’s no grout lines to scrub or fibers to trap mud and debris, just be sure to keep them dry!

Strength and durability is also a bonus when you choose hardwood. The high quality hardwood flooring that we offer at Magnus Anderson will pass the test of time. Our floors are long lasting, tough and able to stand up to high traffic areas of the home. Hardwood floors that meet the elevated specifications of Magnus Anderson will last for generations and maintain their strength even under the toughest of circumstances!

Of course, there’s more to hardwood flooring than its ability to withstand wear and tear. Hardwood floors are known for their transformative properties as well. Even the smallest room will appear larger and more spacious with hardwood floors. The appeal of hardwood floors is apparent when you consider the source. Hardwood floors bring the warmth and essence of nature into the home that isn’t available with other sources. The value and aesthetic of hardwood floors is timeless.

For a classic look and value that grows, hardwood floors are the top choice for homeowners who want to change up their floors. Whether you plan to live in your home for a lifetime or are looking to sell, hardwood floors will meet your needs.

At Magnus Anderson, we pride ourselves on our high-quality hardwood floors, our expert installation, and our unique refinishing process for existing hardwood floors. Call us today to discover the perfect hardwood floors for your home in Fayetteville, Pinehurst, Southern Pines, and the surrounding areas.

Why Choose Luxury Vinyl Planks?

When it comes to flooring in Pinehurst and Fayetteville, the options are endless! With tile, hardwood, carpeting, laminate, and vinyl, it’s easy to become overwhelmed and wonder how you’ll ever decide.

But there’s another option at Magnus Anderson! Luxury vinyl planks. These planks offer the look of hardwood, stone, and tile at a fraction of the cost for our Pinehurst and Fayetteville customers!

You’re probably familiar with standard vinyl flooring that we offer at Magnus Anderson. The peel and stick plastic sheets that adhere to the floor. Luxury vinyl planks are on a different level and Magnus Anderson is proud to offer these floors to our Pinehurst and Fayetteville customers. They typically install in much the same way as vinyl, but luxury vinyl planks have a much thicker wear layer than regular vinyl. Because of the increased thickness we know our Pinehurst and Fayetteville clients will love these floors. Luxury vinyl planks are much more resistant to wear and tear as well as more durable and long lasting which is especially useful for Pinehurst and Fayetteville family homes.

In fact, luxury vinyl planks may be more comparable to laminate flooring. Both types of flooring have cost and durability advantages for our Pinehurst and Fayetteville customers, as well as being easy to clean. Laminate and luxury vinyl planks prove that luxury flooring doesn’t have to cost and arm and a leg in Pinehurst and Fayetteville. They are masters of disguise, taking on the qualities and look of tile and hardwood.

But that’s where their similarities end. Luxury vinyl planks stand up to moisture, which can be especially useful in the bathroom and kitchen areas in Pinehurst and Fayetteville. Because there is no wood in the product, you could soak luxury vinyl planks in water and not see any damage!

Luxury vinyl planks can be glued down, floated like laminate, or even grouted like tile! They are the number one choice for homeowners in Pinehurst and Fayetteville looking for luxury flooring without the high cost!

How To Save Kitchen Space With Cabinets

At Creative Stone, our team of professionals has had the privilege of being instrumental in turning many clients’ kitchen dreams into a reality. For each client, we take special care in honoring the vision they have and combining it with cabinet and countertop suggestions that they probably didn’t even know were possible. Many come in to see us and immediately let us know that they have their hearts set on granite countertops until we introduce them to the world of quartz or marble countertops. They have a vision in their head of a certain color of cabinetry, until we show them the vast amount of cabinet options that are available to them.

One statement we hear over and over again from homeowners who are looking to renovate their kitchens is “We don’t want our kitchen counters to be cluttered”. Everyone we talk to is looking for ways to cut down on the “stuff” that sits on their countertops. The best way to achieve bare countertops is to find the space for kitchen gadgets in the cabinets. As cabinet experts, we do our part by suggesting and then installing the cabinet space. However, it is the homeowners job to use the cabinet space in the best ways possible to eliminate kitchen clutter.

At Creative Stone, we have some suggestions on how to do that.

First, before you ever place an item in your newly installed kitchen cabinets, go through all of the items that you are planning to place in the cabinets and purge the items that you really do not need or want any longer. Also, when organizing items in your cabinets, it may help to use a certain type of rack or divider. You can pretty much find any type and size of cabinet divider, shelf or rack that you can think of on the market today. When it comes to small items, like spices, a rack inside the cabinet may help you organize better and save you space. Third, organize your small kitchen appliances, and pots and pans according to what you use the most. Keep what you use less frequently in the back of a kitchen cabinet, and everything else to the forefront.

With a little effort you can achieve that bare kitchen countertop space that you are looking for. If you want to renovate your kitchen space by replacing your current cabinets or countertops, then give our Creative Stone professionals in Fayetteville, NC a call today at (910) 491-1225. We would love to help you!
