Lighter than Light

Charleston Place in Windham by Invincible H2O

Gain the illusion of space with the waterproof, kid-proof features you need when you shop Charleston Place in Windham by Invincible H2O. Light floors are still going strong in 2022, making light hardwoods such as white oak and white ash popular choices for many homeowners looking to redo their flooring. And, what better way to invest in the lighter than light trend than by opting for a bright white-washed waterproof floor? 

Pet-proof Flooring

Shelby Lane - White Oak in Antique by Hydrotek H2O

With a surge in pet adoptions these past couple of years, many homeowners have now found themselves needing pet-proof floors. Welcome your new furry friend into your home with a floor that can handle life’s toughest mishaps. Thanks to new technology, spills, scratches, and dents don’t stand a chance against this year’s flooring products that can take on all kinds of unexpected accidents, from spilled beverages to puppy accidents. 

Hardwood floors aren't completely out of the question, though. While traditional hardwood flooring was easy to scratch, difficult to maintain, and unprotected against moisture, recent advances in floor engineering have resulted in engineered hardwood products that are so long-lasting that they come with 50-year warranties! With Hydrotek H2O's Shelby Lane White Oak flooring, you can now have the popular real white oak look throughout your home. This floor will withstand the test of time thanks to its long-lasting features and waterproof construction.

With its magnificent authentic mineral streaks and knotting combined with classically styled seven-inch planks, Rustic River’s Portland View Oak instantly elevates your space in style.

Au Naturel

Liberty Grove in Ultra White by Bel Terra

This year has witnessed a significant green movement, with a focus on au naturel and a return to our roots. Bringing this organic modern aesthetic into your room, whether it's with wood, limestone, or plants, will have you feeling your best all year.

Bel Terra's Liberty Grove tile has a polished white shine that’s suggestive of marble behind a cascading waterfall. It’s because of this suggestive natural beauty that this tile is our top selection for nailing the all-natural trend. Gray flecks provide warmth and movement within the tile, making it a great choice for today's most stylish interiors.
