"I recently had my basement flooring installed and refinishing the 2nd floor bedrooms with oil-based poly semi-gloss by Jarius and his company Lakefront Legacy Floors, and I could not be more thrilled with the results! From start to finish, he was very communicative, professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly attentive to my concerns. He was patient with me, explaining various aspects of the installation, checking-in if I did not understand anything.  And as a first-time homeowner, I have never felt so relieved to have him do the work and to know my house will be taken cared of. When it came to the selection of flooring options, it was overwhelming, however with his expert guidance he made the process easy and helped me choose the perfect style for my home. The installation process was seamless; the crew arrived on time, worked efficiently, and left my space spotless. The quality of the flooring and refinishing is outstanding it has transformed my home into a warm and inviting haven. I genuinely appreciated the follow-up care he provided (texts/photos), ensuring everything met my expectations. I highly recommend Jarius to anyone looking for top-notch flooring, fair pricing, exceptional service and a genuine individual."

"We hired Numitor LLC to give our house a facelift as we wanted to sell it. Frank and his crew refinished our hardwood floors, painted and patched the walls, repaired and replaced a couple of windows and repaired and painted doors. We are highly satisfied with the result and Frank was always very attuned to our needs and requests. The whole crew of Numitor was reliable, on time and they always went the extra mile to get things done. The quality of the work exceeded our expectations and was executed in a very professional manner. We would highly recommend Numitor LLC and appreciate the personalized customer service Frank offered."

"I found out about New Haven painters through my brother in law who does home restoration and renovations. Paul came to give us an estimate, set up the schedule, and his team showed up on time. The cabinet doors arrived on schedule. I've never seen such a meticulous worker tape off countertops and floors - very professional. I am truly impressed, and I highly recommend this company. What a fantastic job! It looks like a brand new kitchen."

Flooring Installation FAQs, answered by experts

When it comes to linoleum versus laminate, the better choice depends on your personal needs. Linoleum tends to last longer but is more difficult to install. Laminate is less eco-friendly and less durable, but it is easy to install without a professional. 

Both options come in a wide variety of styles, but many prefer the look of laminate. Laminate and linoleum are affordable flooring options compared to hardwood or tile, but laminate costs less at about $0.70 to $2 per square foot.

When you install laminate flooring, you have to install spacers (also called expansion gaps) along the edges. This space along the edges gives the flooring the room it needs to naturally expand and contract. When you don't have an expansion gap, you can end up with damaged or warped planks. This can lead to uneven flooring, which is unsightly and can cause a trip hazard.

Yes, you can put rugs and carpet on heated floors. However, carpet is not the most efficient for heated floors. The carpet pad and pile can prevent the heat from penetrating into the room. Rugs may also prevent heat from reaching your feet. You will get the most from your heated floors if you use thin rugs so that a maximum amount of heat can penetrate the room. You may find you do not need rugs to warm a space, thanks to the radiant heat coming up through your feet.

Avoid plush, high-pile, or thick carpets on your stairs because they can increase the risk of slipping and wear down quickly in busy homes. Also, ensure the carpet you install is stain-resistant, particularly if you select a light color.

Whether or not transition pieces go under the baseboard depends on a few different factors. If the transitions are being installed with the flooring and before the baseboards, then they will go under the baseboards. If the baseboards are already installed, then it depends on whether or not you want to remove them or undercut them. If not, the transition pieces can butt up against the baseboard.
