"I could not have asked for a better flooring installer. During the bid process Garrett was very open and honest about cost, material requirement, and amount of time for the job. He was on time everyday, he always answered my calls or called me back as soon as possible, and he always told me his plan for the day. I never felt out of the loop. The floor in my house is exactly what I wanted. Garrett only cared about one thing, and that was quality. He took his time on every room in the house to make sure the flooring was perfect. It was straight, there were no marks, and the transitions flowed very well. He did a job on my stairs that looked I can't even explain, these stairs are going to sell my house they are so nice. One great part about the process was the fair pricing. Garrett only charged me for the boxes of flooring he used, not from an over estimated measurement. I never felt like he was trying to squeeze a few extra dollars out of me. If I ever have to use a flooring installer again, I would only go through Shekinah flooring, no question. "
"I hired Charles and Ken for a job after an ice maker leak in my house. I was communicated with during every step of the process, which is very important to me. They showed up on time and did the work in the timeline scheduled. I was very happy with the results and I get lots of compliments on my floors."
"Robert is very easy to work with. His crew is excellent and very professional. The installation was on time, as promised, and was completed in one day. He designed the 1100+ sq ft installation with the minimum of carpet seams and the seams that were necessary are perfect. I would have Robert do any floor installation in the future."
"They were excellent with assisting us to pick the right colors and product. I really enjoyed working with them. I liked the fact that they are a nice couple and they take pride on what they do."
"I really like and love my kitchen and floor refinishing done by Alfredo, and Emmanuel upstairs. I will gladly recommend Expert Home Builders to my friends and people."
Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts
Yes. So-called “floating” cork floors can be installed over concrete subfloor, though a polyethylene vapor barrier is required. This type of installation is achieved using the glue-down tiles, which are trickier for a DIY approach, so consider calling a professional to help you if you’re planning to install your cork floor over concrete.
Basements are commonly converted into game rooms. The potential challenges you may run into include controlling moisture, working with low ceilings, limited natural light, and the need for additional electrical or HVAC work. Addressing these issues can add to the total cost, but it ensures a comfortable and functional space.
The best flooring materials for a mudroom are porcelain and ceramic tiles. Both are easy to clean and maintain, and they're also water-resistant and highly durable. If you're not a fan of those types, you can also choose another nonporous flooring for your mudroom, such as stone or sealed concrete. Stay away from linoleum, cork, hardwood, and engineered wood, as water and moisture in your mudroom will damage these quickly.
The best flooring for radiant heat systems is tile, including porcelain, ceramic, and natural stone. These materials are excellent heat conductors, retain warmth well, and are waterproof, which prevents mold or rot in case of leaks from a hydronic system. Unlike wood, they do not pose a fire safety risk if the heating system overheats. Ceramic tile is a particularly popular choice as it is inexpensive, easy to install, and available in many styles, making it ideal for spaces like bathrooms. Other flooring types that work well with radiant heat include laminate, engineered wood, and vinyl. If you are installing radiant heating over a concrete slab, especially in a basement, it is advisable to install a vapor barrier first to prevent issues with moisture and condensation.
A laminate floor will lift if it hasn’t been installed with the proper expansion gaps around the room’s perimeter. Laminate flooring naturally expands and contracts when indoor temperatures fluctuate, and without adequate room for expansion, the planks can lift off the subfloor. To avoid this, ensure your flooring installer knows to leave the proper expansion gaps.
