"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."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

The cost of new flooring materials depends on the type of flooring, its quality, installation method, and additional features. While some options, like solid hardwood flooring, may be more expensive than carpet initially, others, such as vinyl and laminate, offer more budget-friendly alternatives. Ultimately, the overall expense can be influenced by factors like longevity, maintenance requirements, and desired aesthetic, making it essential to consider the long-term value of each material.

Carpet installation costs include carpet type (material, weave), room size, subfloor preparation, and labor costs. Getting multiple quotes provides a clearer picture of expected expenses.

No, thick carpet padding isn’t necessarily better than thinner padding. The appropriate padding thickness will depend on the type of carpet and the amount of foot traffic in the area. 

For example, thick padding works well in low-traffic areas, like bedrooms, where you have soft and plush carpeting. However, thick carpet padding can damage low-pile carpet, which is used in the busiest parts of your home (like hallways and entryways). For that reason, it’s best to use thinner, heavier padding underneath carpet in high-traffic areas.

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.
