Choosing a floor is a huge decision with the endless options available on the market today. In this video, I will break down the key characteristics of each type of hard flooring, give you the pros and cons, cost of material plus cost of installation and lastly the types of flooring that I most frequently source for my own clients.

    Julie, I'm LOVING your content. It is so so in depth, organized and to the point that I really appreciate the time and effort you put into each video. Both my husband and I are Brazilians living in Utah, and we will be building our home next year for our little family of 5. While I do like concrete flooring as an option, I am leaning towards large polished tiles for the entire first floor (kitchen+living+powder room), mostly because I see most modern homes having concrete and while my house will be modern, I just don't want it to look like everyone else's. Polished tile is a very popular choice in any modern house in Brazil, so I feel that by choosing it I will be bringing a piece of my land with me, haha x) Found one that might work at Dal Tile, but would love any recommendations for sourcing a few more options! :) Keep up the great content!

    I recently had floating Luxury Vinyl Plank flooring installed in my home (S. California) . It has a diamond oxide coating that makes it extremely durable . I took a key and dropped a pot to a flooring sample and it did not scratch or dent. The coating also makes it waterproof and fade resistant. It is very family and dog friendly. It has the look and feel of real wood without the high cost and maintenance of real wood.

    I am confused on the LVP analysis to a degree. So many people who have it, love it but a common refrain I am hearing from others is that its the cheap option and it detracts from resale or that people immediately pull it up. I am not seeing that in the market though (maybe with the older/cheaper LVP that doesn't look nearly identical to real wood). The higher end stuff looks amazing, you know exactly what the finish will look like, super durable and can be easily replaced if you ever want a new look (floating that is). Its also showing up on higher end homes now more frequently in at least the DC metro. Also it works great at entries where you would normally want tile or some other water resistant floor. We spec'd white oak throughout our remodel (already have the white oak pre-built staircases in place) but the durability of LVP is about to sway us. Our current house had white oak but our 90lb german shepherd, kids and two adults who are terrible at maintenance have rendered it terrible looking. So more idiot proof floors is really appealing because nice new looking hardwood floors are the best but they don't stay that way long unless you are really obsessed with taking care of it and what walks on it. Good review on the materials btw :)

    So good to read about your great experience! We are planning our first home, will build it from scratch. I love the idea of having the same flooring on all rooms, that continuity that looks quite luxurious. In my current apartment I have woodlike ceramic tile, and while it looks great it feels very hard and cold. We walk barefoot all the time and have a toddler and I don't like it. That's why we were leaning towards woodlike LVP - it's a humid city, I want the same flooring in the kitchen, laundry room, bathroom, etc so it has to be waterproof. LVP seems to check all the boxes so far!

    My fiancé and I are about to start our first home build so I'm so glad I found you! I've been binging all your videos and taking notes! For an open plan kitchen, lounge and dining, so the main area of the home, I've always wanted wood floors. We live in Australia in a small rural beachside town, so hardwood isn't really the right way to go, but I'm leaning towards laminate due to the climate and our budget, and because I think it will look as close to real wood floors as I can get, and because we will be on acreage with animals so durability is important.

    Hi Julie, I agree with the previous comment.. you are the best Interior Designer on You Tube. I decided on quartz thanks to your information. I have also decided to go with Cambria. I asked you a question recently about choosing Whitby as a countertop to go with my new Shaker style walnut cabinets. It’s quite an investment obviously, so I went to a showroom to take another look at the new colors. I don’t want trendy, I want something neutral enough to be transitional. Some of the Cambria, like Colton, has so much veining… it reminds me of varicose veins…or is that just me? Whitby is still on my list, Inverness Frost has some veining for a little more interest, maybe even Inverness Bronze( or is that too reddish?) I would love it if you could give me your top 3 to 5 light colored picks from the cambria line. Also, I loved your color palette video… my problem is I don’t understand color tones. For instance, do I go with an off white or cream tone with warm cabinets and how do I pick out the flooring so that I am not too “matchy-matchy” Could that be a possible new video? Thanks Julie!!!! 😊❤

I am on a lot of facebook groups that think LVP (Luxury vinyl plank) (I want to die laughing when I hear this description) is the way to go. I am a true believer that real wood floors stand the test of time and I will be using that on my next project. Wood can be traditional and all the way to contemporary with the right color choice. Thats my 2 cents worth. Thanks again and I love all of your informative videos. I have watched them all and cant wait for the next one.

    Finally, a channel and a host that can give Jeff (Home RenoVision DIY) a run for his money. I've been getting tired of Jeff's tendency for longwindedness and lately I've been looking for someone who can go through flooring options in a straightforward manner. I think I've found it. I've never seen any of Julie's videos before today but something tells me she's just as comfortable with her sleeves rolled up blue collar style. Probably not her chosen lot in life; all I'm saying is she can handle power tools if needs be. The tell is the way technical stuff rolls off her tongue just as comfortably and she sounds like she walks the talk.

    Julie, I absolutely love and appreciate your thoughtfully organized and detailed content with your eye for design that I also love!! And the fact that you infuse Feng shui ❤️ We just bought a classic home that I want to style as boho/jungalow+classic and debating what flooring to go with for 1st floor because half is (travertine?) tile and half is a dark brown solid wood installed diagonally (I prefer straight). We're thinking to replace tile with engineered wood/linoleum (eco+VOC conscious) and refinish the wood to match or coordinate with the new floor to save $ and not redo it all. But also debating if we should replace all so it's coordinated floor (though not open concept 1st floor just flows from one room to the other). That would drive up the budget and I don't want to opt for vinyl or laminate (VOC) and prefer the wood took and was debating if we should go with wood-like porcelain (con: cold). Any tips you have would be greatly appreciated!! 🙏🏽

    Hi Julie, I have now watched your flooring video 4 times 😄. I installed new walnut cabinets and Whitby countertops by Cambria in May and I still haven't decided on a floor. I have researched and researched and brought home samples of everything under the sun and have given myself "paralysis by analysis". Here's the basics. No kids, no pets, Occcasional parties. I am putting the flooring in the kitchen, dining room, livingroom, hallways. We leave Minnesota from Jan-April to go camping and set our thermostat at 45 degrees. We live on a lake and enjoy the lake breeze so in the summer, the AC doesn't come on till its in the 90's. Our house value is up to 900K+ so we don't want to skimp on quality. I would love an engineered wood floor and am looking at Shaw Repel scuff resist platinum... but am told it might not do well under such extreme conditions. It's only 1 mil thick so I can't imagine it could expand and contract THAT much. Can it? My other thought was to go with waterproof laminate. So far it seems that the REV wood by Mohawk is the most realistic with the GenuEdge and supposedly more scratch resistant than other laminates. I know that you said you put in laminate. Are you still happy with it. Is there a brand that you recommend for quality laminates or hardwoods? Any suggestions on wood or color? I could send a picture. I was thinking of oak or hickory with some warm tones. The walnut has lightened up a bit since installation and looks almost like it has orange in the tones I have brought home over 100 samples of EVERYTHING and really want to get this installed before Thanksgiving, Any thoughts, Julie? Thank you!!! Ginny J. Love your channel and would appreciated your advice.

  • @JulieKhuu

    You live by the lake, but does the floor require water resistance Ginny? Engineered hardwood is still my first pick for you. I would purchase it asap, store it, but don’t install until spring. I know that sounds crazy, but with the incremental weather that you’re describing, I would like for the floors to adjust to the heat/ humidity/ temperature of your home before installing. They shouldn’t warp once they’re accustomed to their new space.
