Study Reveals New Flooring to be Among Top Home Improvement Projects for 2011

Is new flooring on the top of your list of projects to do around the house?  If so, you are in good company.  A recent study conducted by Kudzu.com concluded that flooring projects are among the most popular home improvement projects for 2011.  The study discovered that nearly 80% of homeowners are considering a home-related project this year, and 33% of those homeowners will install new flooring.  Flooring came only behind painting (49%), landscaping (38%), and refurnishing (35%).

Rhonda Hills, Kudzu.com vice president and chief marketing officer expresses, “The floors are one of the first things someone notices when they walk into a home.  Good flooring improves the look of a room and can also increase the value to the home. It’s no surprise that flooring projects are at the top of most homeowners’ lists.”

The study, which involved 3500 participants, also revealed that many homeowners (50%) are undecided on which flooring brand they will use.  Among the brands most considered are Armstrong (24%), StainMaster (19%), Mohawk (15%), Shaw (14%), and Bruce (10%).  All of these brands and more are available at Pizazz Floors & Interior Design, and your design consultant can help you select the best product for your budget and lifestyle.  Pizazz can handle all of your flooring needs, from hardwood to carpet to tile to laminate.  Let us help you check one more thing off your list for 2011!
