Enhances your timber floors
Beautiful floors with an impressive natural wood grain are not just for rich people. You can have the same look in your home by choosing flooring that has been stained or painted to resemble its original state!
Gives it a more mature appearance
A dark color can be a great way to give off that old-fashioned feel you’re going for in your home. It also helps if the wood is already naturally colored, but even then it’ll add some depth without being overbearing or trendy
Protects wood from sun damage
The floor of your house is one place that you can’t afford to have damaged. Stains like these will help protect against warping, which might otherwise happen because direct sunlight hits them and causes stretching or cracking in some cases!
Protects floors from general wear and tear
If you want to protect your stain against damage caused by foot traffic and general use, then staining is a great option!

The debate over which floor stain finish is harder has been a topic of great discussion. Harder finishes will scratch more easily than softer ones.
