Your office may be in desperate need of an overhaul, or you might just be noticing some little things that could use some improvement. Either way, there’s a lot you can do with the help of a Nashville contractor, so let’s look at a few interior improvement ideas for your office.
1. Refinish Your Flooring
While most offices aren’t known for their hardwood flooring, Nashville isn’t like most cities. Many office buildings have taken up residence in historic buildings that may be hiding beautiful flooring under dusty old carpets or cheap linoleum from the ‘90s. One overlooked office improvement idea is taking those hardwoods and giving them new life with refinishing. Refinishing hardwood flooring involves a few things. First, the floors are cleaned, and any loose nails or staples from carpeting will be removed. Next, the floors are sanded down, revealing the beautiful wood grain that may be hiding beneath water damage and scratches. Finally, the floors are polished and sealed with a finish that locks in the look and protects them from damage. Refinished hardwoods can last for decades in a commercial setting if they’re properly cleaned and maintained, making this a great investment for you if you have hardwood office flooring already.
2. Install New Flooring
If your flooring is cursed with stubborn stains, worn through from years of foot traffic, or is just starting to look out of date, replacing your commercial office flooring may be your only option. Fortunately, you’ve got a lot of choices for office floor coverings. Carpeting offers some acoustic benefits, reducing echo and helping to prevent sound transmission across large cubicle spaces. Office carpet also provides a great level of comfort for your staff, whether they’re on their feet for hours doing production work or at a standing desk. Carpet tiles are a great choice for offices because they can be replaced if a stain won’t come out or the carpet is damaged by a burn or scratch. But carpeting isn’t the only option for a modern Nashville office flooring setup. Vinyl flooring is a great choice for your office for a variety of reasons. On the one hand, it’s far more affordable than hardwood flooring, but it can still be designed to look like hardwood or even tile. Additionally, vinyl flooring is very durable and waterproof, making it a great option for office kitchens, breakrooms, or even throughout the office complex.

3. Install Acoustic Ceilings
Not every office enhancement needs to be floor-based. If you’re looking to curb echoes, dull sound transmission, and reduce the overall din of your office, you should seriously consider acoustic ceilings. These stylish tiles are made of materials that absorb sound, preventing echoes from occurring. This helps keep noise to a minimum in your office and ensures a greater level of privacy for folks on phone calls or having a chat with a neighbor. Acoustic ceiling panels come in many forms, so you can expect different colors, materials like wood and metal, and even custom graphics to help enhance the look of your space, while also helping the acoustics.
