Customers say: Quality work

"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."

"I would have put 4 stars because, although the floors were done beautifully, there was some lousy communication during the process. The crew was supposed to be completely done by Thursday, so I started going about my day in the house on Friday and was unpleasantly surprised to see them show up to "finish". They also left a giant pile of trash on my lawn after completing the job (not just sawdust which I expected, but a pile of carpet padding which was not from my house). It was difficult to get in touch with anyone to get answers for a few days over the weekend. The reason I'm giving 5 stars is that, when I finally did get a response, I talked directly with Marteen the CEO, who was very apologetic about the trash and lack of communication regarding the crew's need for an extended timeline, and came by to remove the trash himself. He checked in afterwards to make sure I felt better about the whole experience. The crew actually did an amazing job on the floors and they look brand new, I just wish their mindfulness and communication during the job was a bit better. So what would have been 4 stars is definitely 5, and Marteen's effort is the reason. I've been recommending TLC since. If you want your hardwood floors to look amazing without paying through the roof, TLC is the place to go."

Flooring Installation FAQs, answered by experts

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.

If the installer is unwilling to fix the problems and you’re not interested in seeking remediation, you could hide a visually unpleasant floor. This will only work if the floor is structurally sound and the only issue you have is the way it looks. The easiest way to do this is to use large area rugs. You can also paint the floor, although that’s a labor-intensive job if you want to go the DIY route.

Moso bamboo, Phyllostachys edulis, is the most commonly used species for bamboo flooring. Moso bamboo is native to China and Taiwan, and it was later introduced to Japan and then the United States. In addition to flooring, Moso bamboo is used in textile production, and the shoots are edible. Moso is one of the fastest-growing plants in the world, which is why it’s an affordable and sustainable option compared to traditional hardwood.

Yes, flooring should go under the fridge and your other large appliances. Installing it underneath creates a seamless appearance and makes it easier to move appliances for cleaning or replacement. It is also essential for protecting your subfloor. A kitchen contractor will help you find suitable flooring that is durable enough to handle the weight of your fridge without denting or cracking.

Installing carpet over carpet may affect the warranty of the new carpet. Check with the manufacturer or retailer regarding their warranty policies. Many warranties stipulate specific installation guidelines, and installing carpet over carpet may not comply with these requirements. Voiding the warranty due to improper installation methods can leave you without help in case of issues or defects with the new carpet.
