Introduction

Wood borders and accents are the perfect way to give your hardwood floors a distinctive, high-end finish that reflects your personality and style. Whether you’re aiming for a subtle highlight or a bold design statement, these details bring warmth, definition, and character to any room in your home. At R & S Floor Covering, we help homeowners and DIY enthusiasts explore endless possibilities to make their floors truly one of a kind.

What Are Wood Borders & Accents?

Wood borders and accents are decorative elements incorporated into hardwood flooring to add visual interest and define spaces. They can be simple—like a single contrasting strip around the perimeter of a room—or intricate, such as patterned inlays or medallions. Available in a variety of wood species, colors, grains, and finishes, they can be customized to complement your existing floors or to create a stunning new design. The feel underfoot is the same smooth, sturdy quality you love in hardwood, with the added visual appeal of craftsmanship and detail.

Top Features & Benefits

• Durability – Crafted from high-quality hardwoods and finished for longevity, wood borders and accents withstand daily foot traffic while retaining their beauty.
  Side note: Like all hardwood, they may show minor wear over time without proper maintenance.
• Style Versatility – From traditional oak strips to contemporary geometric parquet, you can choose a style that suits your décor and personal taste.
• Easy Maintenance – These accents require the same care as your hardwood floors—regular sweeping, occasional mopping, and refinishing when needed.
• Installation Advantages – Professional installation ensures a precise, seamless look that blends perfectly with your existing or new hardwood.
• Eco-Friendliness – Many options use sustainably sourced wood, allowing you to add elegance while being mindful of the environment.

What Sets Wood Borders & Accents Apart?

Unlike standard hardwood planks, borders and accents allow for complete customization. They can frame a dining room for a formal touch, draw attention to a fireplace, or create transitions in open-concept spaces without the need for walls. With the variety of design possibilities—contrasting colors, intricate medallions, parquet patterns, and even mixed materials like stone or metal—you can create a floor that’s as unique as your home.

Best Areas of the Home

Wood borders and accents work beautifully in:

• Living Rooms – Highlight seating areas or create a visual frame for your furniture layout.
• Dining Rooms – Add elegance and definition around your dining set.
• Hallways – Turn simple passageways into eye-catching design features.
