BATHROOM: Remove old tile, and install new tile. Mr. Ford is a skilled craftsman who takes pride in his work. From the estimate, to the final payment, he impressed me with his professionalism. He was here when he said he would be, and has the tools necessary to do the job right. Jonathan is very knowledgeable about his trade, making suggestions that elevated my original ideas.

He treated me fairly, was flexible, and stayed within my budget. I never felt pressured to upgrade. He was a pleasure to work with, and I have already spoken to him about completing my next project."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

In Des Moines, many older homes have subfloor issues from shifting soil and seasonal humidity, which can cause uneven surfaces and creaking. Watch for sloping floors, sticking doors, or visible cracks—these often signal foundation settling or moisture problems. Homes built before 1940 may have asbestos or lead-based materials, so professional assessment is wise before starting any hardwood, laminate, or tile flooring project.

Helpful?

For Des Moines’ climate, keep a dehumidifier for damp basements and a humidifier to protect hardwood in dry winters. Essential supplies include a microfiber mop, pH-neutral floor cleaner, moisture meter, and quality doormats to trap salt and debris. Grout sealer, felt pads for furniture, and touch-up stain are handy for quick fixes, while ice melt safe for floors helps during snowy months.

Helpful?

Upgrading flooring in Des Moines can noticeably boost home value and attract buyers, especially with hardwood or luxury vinyl plank in neutral tones. Consistent, professionally installed flooring appeals to those seeking move-in-ready homes. Pet-friendly, low-maintenance materials are highly desirable, and updating basement or entryway floors with water-resistant options can further enhance resale prospects in local neighborhoods.

Helpful?

In Des Moines, flooring projects can impact electrical wiring, plumbing, or HVAC—especially in older homes with original systems. Radiant heat or water lines may run beneath concrete slabs, and changing flooring height can affect vents, baseboards, or door clearance. Before installing luxury vinyl plank or engineered hardwood, inspect for hidden wires or pipes to avoid accidental damage and ensure a smooth renovation process.

Helpful?

Des Moines homeowners favor wide-plank hardwood in natural oak or hickory, often with matte or weathered finishes for a modern farmhouse look. Luxury vinyl plank is popular for its water resistance and durability, especially in basements and kitchens. Earthy tones, wood-look tile, and large-format porcelain are trending, while pet-friendly and scratch-resistant flooring options are increasingly sought after for busy households.
