Q: Is cork flooring better than hardwood?

• <div><p>It all depends on what you&rsquo;re looking for in a floor. Cork flooring is certainly softer and more sound-absorbing than hardwood floors, and the two share very similar maintenance routines. That said, for some homeowners, the pristine appearance of hardwood floors may be more appealing, and they may be less prone to scratches and dents than cork flooring. Hardwood flooring also tends to be more expensive than cork flooring.</p></div>

Q: Which hardwood floors last longest?

• <div><p>While many hardwood floors can last decades with proper maintenance, choosing a harder wood type, like hickory, can help extend the life span of your hardwood floors and reduce the amount of maintenance needed to keep them looking new and shiny. Softer hardwoods, like walnut, may not last quite as long as other types.</p></div>

Q: Is a stair runner cheaper than a carpet?

• <div><p>A stair runner can be cheaper than a carpet and will definitely save money over the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/hardwood-floor-refinishing-cost-and-other-factors.htm">cost of refinishing hardwood floors</a> and stairs. The price depends, however, on the fabric and quality of the runner. A wool stair runner can be more expensive than an inexpensive polyester carpet and vice versa. Keep an eye on your budget, knowing that the higher quality the carpet and the carpet pad, the better the carpet will wear over time.</p></div>

Q: Does carpet ruin hardwood stairs?

• <div><p>In most cases, carpeting isn&rsquo;t kind to the wood that it&rsquo;s attached to. Most carpet installation uses adhesive or nailing strips, both of which will damage wood. Conversely, you can choose to use an adhesive designed to be removed from wood, in which case carpeting can actually protect your hardwood stairs.</p></div>
