We are all questioning our self what is really better for our own health: carpeting or having hardwood floors in our homes. Well there is some naked truth about the carpeting, so please take it as a consideration to better and greener living, because your health matters. The Mayo Clinic recommends removing carpet in your home and replacing it with hard surfaces to insure healthier air quality .Hard surfaces like hardwood floors make it more difficult for allergens to penetrate and cling to the floor.

Key sustainability advocates such as USBC and LEED have identified hardwood floors as healthier and more sustainable choice in flooring .They don’t leave a space where mold, pollen or animal dander can grow unlike other flooring alternatives.
