Gilman Floors

Carpeting of earlier times provided far fewer benefits compared with today's carpets that are manufactured from the most recent technologies. For example, modern carpets from major manufacturers offer almost complete stain resistance, fibers that won't remain 'down' when crushed and also don't retain dirt and allergens. Perhaps best of all, they are currently available in a very complete selection of styles, designs, colors, textures and patterns, so that any homeowner will find the preferred flooring product that complements or enhances their new or existing interior design plan.

To truly ensure the longevity and beauty of your area rug, you must sometimes go beyond basic vacuuming and invest in professional cleaning services. When your area rug has started to look worn down, or when grime and dirt have been worked too far into the fibers to be extracted with a vacuum, Gilman Floors is there to make it look like new again by performing a quality cleaning. Proudly serving the Bluffton, South Carolina area, our experienced carpet cleaning technicians will clean and protect your home investment.

Forget about hardwood refinishing for a moment. For right now, imagine that it's Sunday morning. The warm sun is peaking in through the window and over the faint sound of birds chirping you can hear your family getting ready to start their respective days. Junior is eating breakfast and preparing for his big soccer game, and while trying to put his cleats on at the table he spills his glass of milk. You make a joke, you both chuckle and together you clean up the mess. It sounds like a beautiful and relaxing morning, doesn't it?

Few floors function in the way that ceramic & porcelain floor tiles do. While they are stunning to look at, no matter what style you choose, they are also durable and functional. Both natural and highly artistic options are available in appearance, along with everything in between. At the same time, you will quickly see how their density and hardness play a part in their long life span. It's not just a floor covering. It can be an investment in your future, whether you intend to stay in your home, or sell it.

When choosing a floor covering for lifespan purposes, the obvious choice for most homeowners is solid hardwood flooring. It can easily find its way to 100 years of life in just about any home, with the proper care and maintenance. However, these floors have been known to last longer, as can be seen in a variety of historical homes across the country. You're likely to even find flooring near our country's capital that has been in place since those buildings were first built. But there's so much more available in this flooring material.

Area rugs are chosen for a wealth of reasons important to the homeowner, but it all comes down to beauty and protection. In fact, both can actually be at work in the same time, depending on the strategic use of each rug. Choose one rug for a major focal point in an entryway, or spread them throughout your home for protection that runs all the way through, as both will look to serve your specific purposes. The truth is, there's no wrong way to use an area rug, and we're sure you'll find amazing ways to use your own.

You may or may not realize that laminate flooring was the first wood-look flooring to hit the United States flooring market. As such, it was a raging trend among homeowners for quite some time, for those who wanted the stunning and timeless look of solid hardwood flooring, but didn't want to install the real thing. Since then, it has only gotten better, with advancements in manufacturing techniques. And we're here to show you how. Gilman Floors came into existence in 2001, as an in-home shopping option.
