If your dining room is used on a regular basis, hard flooring options are usually the ‘go to’ given their ability to repel the daily activity that is thrown upon it each day. Laminate, Luxury Vinyl and Hybrid flooring are all great options for dining rooms, where durability is a must. Standing up to heavy furniture and the inevitable chair being scraped across the floor is something a Hybrid floor can handle with its scratch resistant ability.

Additionally, Hybrid flooring is water resistant so it’s better to be safer than sorry when it comes to choosing flooring for your dining room, making sure all the boxes are ticked.
Alternatively, placing a rug underneath the dining table can provide for a softer feel in the room, and can reduces friction between chairs. Rugs can be easily maintained and cleaned regularly to make this alternative work effectively.
