Client Project - Flooring & Windows

Client renovation projects are what we do best! And when it comes to creating the space you’ve been dreaming of, we pride ourselves on ensuring your dreams are turned into one big reality with our team at D&M Flooring and Windows. We are in love with how this project turned out, and so are our clients, so let us take you through some of the details…

When it came to the flooring, we went with a gorgeous Herringbone pattern of quality hardwood flooring, to create a traditional and stylish look in the space. Flooring preparation is critical, and with careful attention to detail and care in our placement, we were able to create a stunning finish, and a consistent and seamless transition between the carpet and the Herringbone.

Did you know that the pattern of the flooring we chose to go with is called ‘Herringbone’ due to its visual similarity to the bone structure of a herring fish? This style of flooring can actually make a space appear larger and more open, due to the illusion of movement that it gives!

When it comes to the perfect flooring installation we pay close attention to our layers, as the types of layers seen in a project like this one cannot be rushed! And with excellent workmanship and close attention to details, everything came together perfectly.

Of course, a home renovation project isn’t complete without looking to the windows to tie it all together! And we made sure to address our client’s every need to create the ambience they were hoping for.

Looking to the window furnishings, we went with a denim shade to compliment our client’s vision; we added a curtain with black out backing over the S fold sheer fabric, and added padded pelmets to hide the tracks and fittings, which helped cut out light and nurture these amazing results! We fell in love with how the sheers kiss the floor, and soften the ambience created in the space. Overall, a contemporary French style was achieved and adds a beautiful base to our client’s freshly renovated home.

Everything truly did come together beautifully, and projects like these remind us of why we’ve been in this business for 50 years and absolutely love doing what we’re doing.

So if you have a vision for your home and would like to transform it into the space of your dreams, talk to our team today. Our in-house interior designer will assist you in bringing your ideas to life!

Choosing your floor colour

Flooring is a big decision and not one to be taken lightly as after all, it is one of the biggest surface areas within the home.

Here are our 4 biggest tips to consider when choosing your floor colouring.

1 - Your room size.

Do you want to make your room feel larger? Opt for a lighter coloured flooring. If you are looking for more of a cosy or intimate space then have a look at darker finishes. 

2 - What’s your mood?

Do you want a breezy, light filled, beach vibe? White or light timber finishes will be key here. 

Would you like a contemporary feel, have you considered a black option for a sense of drama - a good drama of course! 

Maybe you would like a classic theme, a simple dark wood / laminate could be perfect. 

3 - Don’t forget your furniture!

If you are not investing in new furniture, it is very important to consider the existing colours you will be working with in your home. Do you have some special artwork you want to compliment? A sofa you just cannot part with? Keep these in mind when shortlisting you floor colouring. 

Show us some pictures of your key items so we can help advise you on our complimenting colour options. 

4 - It’s all in the lighting

Like your paint colours, your flooring can look different throughout the day. Ask us for some free samples to check how they look at different times of the day, with both natural and artificial light.
