"Team was quick, professional and precise when repairing original 1911 hardwood floors after rug tape had caused much of an old rug to adhere to the flooring. I would recommend this team again!"

"Excellent job by a great company, Monteros Hardwood Flooring. They changed the entire look of my 40+ year old hardwood floor. The time & price were also excellent with this family owned business. I I would highly recommend Monteros Hardwood Flooring!!"

"Absolutely perfectly. The job required removal of existing linoleum and carpeting, new install of latex subflooring, luxury vinyl install over three rooms all laid on a 45° angle, and new baseboards. My install was a bit problematic as it involved the approval of the Condo Board. Valley Carpet One went above and beyond by submitting specs to the Condo Board and backing up their choices with solid examples of previous work, and got me the approval I needed. They worked with my painter to make sure the baseboards were painted before install. And when there was a recurring problem with one area — caulk would absorb into the space along one mirrored wall and would not adhere — they waited until the flooring had settled and did the finishing touches to perfection. They had been recommended to me by a friend who had also recommended them to five other people, and I have since recommended them to people who have also used their services. Valley Carpet One is an incredible company, and I hope to engage them again when I do my bathroom and balcony,"

"This guy I the best. Worth every penny. My floors had holes and were shaking. My mom is in a wheel chair so this is not acceptable. Not only did he reinforce and level the floor he also recommended the right type of flooring. He truly went above and beyond. I would give him 10 stars it I could. ✨️"

"The work exceeded our expectations. Scott even added a floor reducer that transition nicely with the bathroom floor. Prior to the work, Scott gave me the pros and cons between refinishing or installing a new floor, that helps a lot when deciding which option to take."

"We received several bids on the work we needed done. Mario Diaz Flooring was not the cheapest bid and not the most expensive. We chose them because of their ratings and the confidence Mario had that we would love the end product. Our situation was not just refinishing original hardwood floors, putting adding a brand new 300 square foot oak floor with a 70-year-old existing oak floor that flow together. When we pulled up the carpet, we had a lot of stains in the wood, some fresh and wet from my daughter's dog when they visit us, which I was not aware existed. I was amazed that Mario’s crew got all the stains out and the new room they added matched the old oak floors so well. They did a beautiful job. They showed up everyday and completed the job in a timely manner. The crew worked very hard and were very polite. A few companies that quoted the project seemed to make a big deal about adding a brand new room with the original oak flooring we had. Mario assured us we would be happy with the end product and gave us confidence in his craftsmanship. He said our floors will look pretty much the same because he uses solid oak similar to what was used in the 1950s (newer but oak). He uses a process to age the wood to help it match the original. We were amazed how the floors matched up so perfectly. They laid it down piece-by-piece (no fake wood or prefab material). We absolutely love the look of our new floors. I will never cover up these beautiful wood floors with carpet ever again. I encourage people to get multiple bids and have conversations with the companies. It is time consuming but worth the effort or just skip them all and call Mario Diaz' company. If you get multiple bids, you will figure out fast who is taking advantage and highballing the project."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can recycle most types of carpet. If you hire a pro to remove your old carpet, ask about their carpet disposal process. Many companies will recycle the carpeting, but if yours doesn’t, you can ask them to take it to a recycling center for you (although there might be an additional fee). Alternatively, you can hire a junk hauling service or contact a carpet recycling organization (like CARE).

DIY is possible for small areas. Professional installation ensures proper stretching and a polished finish.

Laminate flooring takes about 24 to 48  hours to settle. Before this, planks are not completely acclimated to your home, and walking on them could cause shifting and permanent damage to the flooring. You should allow floorboards to acclimate for 48 to 72 hours before installing so that they can adjust to your home’s humidity and temperature levels, but they will continue to acclimate and settle after installation. For this reason, avoid placing any furniture in the room for 72 hours after installation.

Your floors will continue to settle for a few months after installation, becoming less bouncy as they rest.

As with anything you buy, be wary of prices that seem too good to be true. Some low-cost flooring products can contain chemicals that release harmful VOCs (volatile organic compounds) in the form of fumes that can be inhaled or dust that can cause skin conditions.

Even good-quality products can be dangerous for DIY-ers who don’t take proper precautions. Always carefully read manufacturer instructions and wear the recommended protective gear when working with paints and other chemicals. You can also hire a local garage flooring pro with the experience and equipment needed to perform the installation safely with no lingering fumes or debris.

Using too much soap or floor cleaner can leave your laminate floors looking dirty or cloudy after mopping. Only use a teaspoon of soap or cleaning solution in a gallon of water. Additionally, always be sure to sweep or vacuum laminate floors before mopping to ensure you pick up dried grit, hair, and dust that can be harder to catch with a wet mop.
