Northville’s residential character is rooted in Victorian-era architecture, with many homes built in Queen Anne and similar styles dating to the 1800s. Homeowners here often prioritize preserving that period character, which shapes which materials make sense in which rooms.

Solid hardwood remains the natural choice for living rooms, dining rooms, and other formal spaces where original character matters most — and where refinishing existing wood is often possible rather than a full replacement. In kitchens, bathrooms, and basements, though, waterproof LVP is generally the safer choice, since it won’t swell or warp from moisture the way older hardwood installations sometimes did.
