What Floors Are Good For You?

What Floors Are Good For You

Choosing new flooring products isn’t just about matching your décor. It’s about finding what fits your lifestyle, space and even the Arizona heat. Maybe you’ve got kids running through the halls, pets chasing toys or you’re finally ready to upgrade your home’s look and comfort.

At Premium Floors & Design, we help homeowners across Phoenix find floors that fit their life—not just their square footage. With our shop-at-home service, you get samples, expertise and good vibes brought right to your door. Let’s talk about how to find the best floors for you.

Think About How You Live

Before falling in love with a look on Pinterest, take a good, hard look at your lifestyle. Think about how your home really functions. Here are some suggestions for different areas of your home:

  • High-Traffic Areas: Go for durability. Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) , tile and engineered hardwood can handle daily wear and tear.
  • Low-Traffic Areas: Bedrooms or offices can benefit from the extra comfort that comes with carpet and laminate flooring.
  • Moisture-Prone Spaces: Kitchens and bathrooms need waterproof options like LVP or porcelain tile.

Take this tip from our owner to heart: every floor can scratch, but the right material hides it better and lasts longer. That’s why we walk customers through real-life scenarios before recommending a product. Along with the flooring materials, professional flooring services can also make or break your floors.

Flooring That Fits Your Lifestyle

We all live very different lives and that’s perfectly okay! However, when it’s time to shop around for new flooring, you have to consider your lifestyle. Let’s go over some of the possibilities:

For Busy Families & Pet Owners

Life happens! Between muddy paws and snack-time spills, you need floors that are stylish and stress-free. Consider luxury vinyl plank (LVP) because it’s waterproof, easy to clean and comes in many wood-look designs. For ultimate toughness, tile flooring provides unmatched durability.

For the Design-Obsessed

Do you live for interior inspiration? Maybe you want your home to feel curated and elevated. That’s where engineered hardwood or high-end vinyl come in. They offer designer looks without high maintenance—elegant yet practical for real life.

For Relaxed Retirees

Sometimes, comfort and simplicity come first. Soft-touch carpet or cushioned vinyl make walking easy on the joints and keep rooms warm and quiet. Modern carpets resist stains, fading and wear, even in the sunniest Arizona homes. 

Don’t Forget About Living in Phoenix

Arizona homes present their own set of unique challenges. Between dry heat, dust, and intense sunlight, there’s a lot to keep in mind. Here are some smart flooring choices:

  • Tile stays cool underfoot and resists expansion.
  • Vinyl floors won’t warp or crack. 
  • Engineered hardwood adds luxury without drying like solid wood.

When you choose Premium Floors & Design, you can take advantage of our shop-at-home service. This lets you see what samples look like under your own lighting, next to your furniture and within your actual living space.
