Painting on hardwood floors is not as crazy as you think. Here are 4 reasons why we think it's a good idea.
Revive Old and Worn Floors
Wood floors are susceptible to scratches. Over time, that good looking floor will no longer appear quite attractive or new. If your hardwood floor is old and worn, painting over it is a great idea. Painted wood will give your floors a new and fresh look and will help cover up those nicks and scratches. Ultimately, it will help update your flooring; thereby, giving new, vibrant life to old floors. A great home remodeling alternative to tearing up your floors.
Saves You Time and Money
Refinishing wood floor is a tedious process. It is also a costly endeavor. To make your wood floor as immaculate-looking as it used to, it needs to be stripped, sanded, repaired, and then finished. Homeowners can't do this on their own. Refinishing wood floor requires the skills and expertise of a professional. Of course, we recommend getting new floors no matter, if it's a matter of safety.
But if your wood floors are still sturdy and just need of a facelift and you want a faster and more affordable option, try painting your wood floor. Some DIYers were able to do this project with just $10!

You can add artistic shapes and patterns that match your design vision. This allows you to express your creativity and reflect your personality in your home.
