As we already mentioned the specific shade of your hardwood flooring can make a big difference in the best paint colors for your walls.
Color matching hardwood.
If you have solid hardwood it s relatively simple for a professional hardwood flooring contractor to match what you have.
Also if your wood floors have been stained or waxed over the years this can alter the color.
When laminate or engineered flooring is involved try and match the faded tones of the existing floor to new products being installed.
Otherwise pick the largest furniture piece in the room.
Especially if a custom stain blend was used it can make it harder to recreate the exact color.
Even if the same wood species is selected for installation achieving that seamless match in hues will require staining the wood and some good old fashioned elbow grease.
Choose whichever sample is closest in color to the existing floor.
While mixing wood tones is perfectly acceptable and in fact encouraged it always helps to pick a dominant wood tone as a starting point to help you choose other pieces to bring in the room.
If you have wood floors this would be your dominant wood tone.
On a basic level hardwood floors usually are all brown with black or white painted hardwood being exceptions to the norm.
Gather samples with different intensities of the same color then pair them with the existing faded floor.
