Hardwood floor replacement isn't always a necessity. The good thing about hardwood is it is actually one of the most durable flooring types. It can last for several decades, even longer, with proper care. And, it's among the most aesthetic types of floor, often prefered over many others, even tile. What's more, it doesn't take much to care for hardwood. Just sweep it weekly and periodically, have it refinished. However, there will come a time when a hardwood floor needs to be replaced.
If you are planning to do some remodeling, it's not a bad idea to take up hardwood, especially if it is nearing the end of its life. You might consider having the hardwood replaced with natural materials or engineered materials. You can also remove the wainscoting and replace it, if you're renovating. But, if you're just replacing the flooring, you have a number of choices. For instance, you can replace it with ceramic tile or concrete.
Hardwood floors take a lot of abuse, and over time they can become stained, warped, chipped or just dull. When your hardwood floor begins to appear worn out, you can refinish it to restore its original shine, or you can tear out the floor and completely replace it. --San Francisco Gate
