Choosing the Right White

November 10, 2017 by iccfloors Leave a Comment

Even though white wall treatments are a staple in American homes it can be challenging finding the right kind of white. Contrary to popular belief white isn’t white. There are many noticeable variations of this color. If you enjoy the simplicity that white offers, it’s important to know it’s many different shades. So here are some tips for picking the perfect shade of white for your space.

Cool Stark White

Cool white walls create a serene atmosphere. You can expect to see such a stark shade of white in contemporary style spaces because it adds to the feeling of newness that minimalist love. Often, when using this variation of white you can keep the theme of the room simple which means there will be very little distraction or contrast.

Creamy White

Creamy white almost gives off a heavenly feel. This variation is great for use in the bedroom since it promotes relaxation and peace. When using creamy white in your bedroom, try contrasting with layers of other types of white. For example, imagine cool white curtains and ivory bedding. This will add more dimensions to the room.

Antique White

Antique white works in traditional spaces such as the living or dining room. Unlike cool white, antique white makes the room feel like it’s being lived in while providing an air of sophistication.

Ivory

If you don’t want a room to feel too cold than you might want to use an ivory white. White paint with ivory undertones adds a hint of warmth to your space. This variation of white complements hardwood floors. To truly bring this look life to use halogen lighting.

Gray White

Grayish white isn’t a variation that we see play out in homes often. The gray undertones don’t take away from the sophistication of the look. Instead, it serves as the perfect backdrop for more vivid hues. Colors such a purple, yellow and red work great as accent colors in a room with grayish white wall treatments.

Warm White

Warm white has khaki undertones. Such a hue makes a space for warm and welcoming especially when you tie in natural materials.

Colors for a House on the Market

November 6, 2017 by iccfloors Leave a Comment

Choosing the perfect paint color for your home can normally be a stressful process, but what about trying to market it to potential buyers? There is a fine line that you do not want to cross when making paint selections for your home. You may be into a bright pink accent wall, but your buyer may not be into that look. If you are looking to put your home up for sale, you will ideally want to choose a paint color that will appeal to various buyers. You may then ask “what colors will sell my house to a buyer?” We have created a list of four safe colors to paint your house.

Colors for A House on The Market:

Gray. Gray is probably the safest color of all the choice that will provide. It comes in a variety of values and hues and works in almost any room in your house. Interior design experts say soft hues may help sell your home. Try using gray on your walls, cabinetry or even your baseboard trim.
Warm Browns. Nothing says cozy like a neutral, warm color and browns will do just the trick. When selling to buyers, you want them to be able to picture themselves in your home. A warm brown wall with some lit candles can do just the trick. Try using warm browns in your living room area.
Navy Blue. If you are looking to add a dark, bold color, navy blue will be the perfect addition. Home buyers love navy blue and it can be your statement piece in any room. Whether you are looking for a bold front door or a dark dining room, navy blue may just be your perfect color choice. If you decide to use navy blue in your dining room, make sure you make the surrounding rooms more soft and subtle. You do not want your space to become extremely dark from all of the harsh colors.
Light Blue. From powder rooms to laundry rooms, light blue is the relaxing take on color that you may just need. Try using light, pale blues on your walls for a subtle pop of color.

We are happy to help with any of your paint-related questions!. Are they ready for your house showing? If not, we provide a wide selection of quality paint colors. Stop in today to view our showroom.

As a customer, you have a lot of questions and concerns. Your satisfaction is our top priority. To help us meet your expectations, we have answered four of the most common flooring questions. Please take some time to read over our answers and contact us with any more questions or concerns.

How long will it take for me to get my flooring?

Once the flooring order is placed at the mill, your sales associate will immediately know whether the product is in stock or will be produced at a certain date. If the product is in stock at the mill, we should receive the product within a week. After the product has been received by ICC Floors, we will set an installation date with you. Depending on the time of year, the installation date can be within the same week of receipt or several weeks depending on how busy our crews are.

What is “shop at home?”

One of our knowledgeable team members will come directly to your home or business with samples of flooring. During this time, we will measure your space to get an exact estimate. You have the ability to order right then and place a deposit on your new flooring without ever leaving your home or business. It is that easy!

What if I am unsure about what flooring to choose?

We offer a special service called “Design your Room,” where homeowners have the ability to upload a picture of their actual room and test out flooring and wall colors. This useful tool helps homeowners imagine what their space could look like without fully committing to a specific style of flooring. The best part is the first upload is completely free!

How do I pay for my flooring?

Along with checks and cash, we accept Discover, Visa, MasterCard, and American Express cards to pay for your purchase. Also, we offer financing through Synchrony Financial. To read more about financing your purchase, visit our financing page.

We look forward to working with you! For more information or to speak with a sales associate call us or visit one of our three locations.
