"Brendon is a highly experienced wood flooring refinishing professional. Our floor was damaged due to wear and sun. He was able to restore the floor to a high luster. Strongly recommend him to all!"
"The guys working in the house where great to work with. They did a great job putting the new floor. The bathroom looks fabulous. There was some miscommunication on certain things but overall when I update some more parts of the house I will use them."
"Dogs and the 4th of July aren't a good combination for carpet. Alan made the holes go away and gave me back my beautiful floor. Quick and professional. Thanks Alan!"
"Eddie and his crew gave my little home the most wonderful new look with the flooring that they put in! They were here early and stayed late and plowed through the hard to measure areas - on top of it all they all have such great attitudes! I would use them over again in a heartbeat! Great work and great character - that is what counts for me!"
"These guys show up when scheduled and do excellent work. The crew was very friendly and accommodating and they work hard! They arrived early morning and worked until dark, and came back again early the next day to finish. After cleaning up after themselves, the owner came by to inspect and make sure I was satisfied with the job and left me with plenty of paint for touch ups. That's the kind of service worth raving about. The price was very fair and lower than other estimates we received. I highly recommend this company and will definitely use them again."
"It was a wonderful experience. Missy was outstanding, suggested flooring and I love it! She let us have samples for as long as we needed. The installers were great and clean."
"They were really great. I felt like they worked really hard to find what I needed and to get me a good deal. They were quick and honest and kind. I hate the workers that treat you like you are stupid and they try to rip you off and both Vadim and Alex were the complete opposite. I am recommending them to all of my friends. Makita"
"The man who came, cleaned out the back of the refrigerator. He was even kind enough to let me clean the floor when he moved the refrigerator out. When he got done, my refrigerator purred. He was wonderful. I also liked the fact that I sent in my request online on a Sunday and my refrigerator was fixed before noon on Monday. My first call with this company and I am very very pleased."
Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts
To prep a floor for painting, start by sweeping and cleaning any loose debris that could puncture the protective material. Take out as much furniture as possible. Then lay plastic, canvas, rosin paper, or masonite sheets across the room, securing them at the edges with masking tape. Plan your painting so that you minimize the chances you’ll step in and track any splatters.
Laminate is a sturdy material that lasts 15 to 25 years if it’s properly maintained and isn’t damaged. Laminate with a higher AC rating lasts longer than laminate with a lower AC rating. For the most longevity, put laminate with an AC1 rating in low-traffic areas and use laminate with an AC3 or AC4 rating in high-traffic areas like entryways.
With proper care and maintenance, hardwood floors can last for decades or even centuries. Solid hardwood and tropical wood, in particular, have the potential to be sanded and refinished multiple times, extending their lifespan. However, the longevity of hardwood floors also depends on factors such as the wood species, quality of installation, and the level of foot traffic in that area of your home.
Avoid steam cleaning unsealed hardwood, vinyl, and laminate floors unless the manufacturer explicitly states that a steam mop can be used.
Yes, you can negotiate the purchase price of new carpet. You may also be able to negotiate installation costs or other fees in addition to the per-foot pricing of the carpet itself. You may have better luck negotiating with an independent retailer (as opposed to a big-box store), as they may have more discretion in pricing, but it’s always worth asking.
