As we move further into spring, many homeowners are ready to transform their homes and breathe new life into the space. If you want to give your abode an upgrade that instantly brightens it up, new flooring might be the ticket.

Whether adding a pop of color or doing a total upgrade, our Window Accents & Flooring team compiled three ways that new floors can brighten your home this season.

1. Open Up Your Space With Neutral Colors and Bright Floors

If you held a before-and-after photo of a living room with dark hardwood floors and light wood planks, you'd notice the space suddenly feels much bigger with bright floors. Color plays a huge role in how open a space feels.

While dark wood accents are beautiful, lighter hardwood, neutral carpeting, or even brightly toned tile can open up any room in your home. At Window Accents & Flooring, we can help you shop for hardwood floors near Princeton, New Jersey, that come in a variety of lighter tones.

2. Peruse Pastel Rugs

If you love your current floors but want to add some pizzazz, pastel area rugs go the distance. We love soft hues that don’t leave the space feeling cluttered, such as:

  • Light blues.
  • Blush pinks.
  • Sunny yellows.

Whether you choose a statement-making patterned rug or a subtle, neutral-toned runner, these pieces bring classic spring color palettes into your home.

3. Dive Into a Deep Spring Cleaning

If you're happy with how your home’s flooring currently looks, nothing brightens up a space like a deep clean. After a long winter, your floors have picked up dirt, dust, and grime that can make them look dimmer than they actually are. However, a good spring cleaning can get your floors looking as good as new.

Here are some tips for spring cleaning different flooring types:

  • Hardwood floors: Use a gentle wood cleaner and a microfiber mop to remove buildup while protecting a reliable finish.
  • Tile or vinyl floors: Wipe down with a cloth soaked in warm water and mild detergent. Be sure to get those grout lines with a detail brush or even an old toothbrush.
  • Carpet and rugs: Doing a deep vacuum and carpet cleaning, or hiring professional carpet cleaners, will revive your carpeting and area rugs.
