"Rustic Flooring installed laminate flooring we bought from LL Flooring. Marcel and his guys did an excellent, professional and with attention to detail job. I highly recommend Rustic and will use them again for additional flooring projects we are planning. We couldn’t be happier."

"The entire process went pretty well. Bob (sales) called ahead of the appointed time in order to arrive early (yea!), and the installation team (JJ and two younger guys) arrived a bit earlier than expected (yea!). They quickly moved my big furniture and removed the old carpeting and pad. About seven hours later I had brand new carpeting to walk on! After I thoroughly vacuumed the new carpeting I didn't find any real problems except for one visible "seam peak" in the main floor area (and I believe this may become less visible over time)."

"I hired George and Angel to finish up a hardwood floor installation. They did such a great job I asked them to quote me for laminate flooring for three bedrooms. I couldn't be happier with the results and would recommend Superior Flooring to anyone looking to make the plunge and change up their flooring. Their services are fairly priced and the results are awesome!"

"The end job was excellent.  They came every day, stayed all day until the job was finished.  We are very happy with the finished product.  However, they did not return calls promptly and were going to leave the job unfinished.  By unfinished I mean they were going to leave without properly  installing all the shoe  molding.  They were going to leave a putty joint between the floor and baseboard showing.  They also charged us for the additional shoe molding which we believed was included in the original price. I do
recommend them justmake sure you include everything you want  written in the contract."

"I took a half wall out between my kitchen and family room and hired Forest Flooring to install wood flooring where the wall was. Forest cut back the old flooring and installed new boards between the wood flooring in the kitchen and the carpet in the family room. The transition looks great and when itâ s time to install hardwood throughout the remainder of the first floor, Forest will be the first call. Highly recommend."

Customers say: Super punctual

"Wizard of Wood Floors did a great job on my hardwood floors. They are knowledgeable and professional. They completed the project within three days as promised. I picked a light color stain and the stain can’t cover my hardware floor’s previous nail holes from the carpet. Mike sent a staff over to help refinish the nail holes to make it look as nice as possible. I fully recommend Wizard of Wood Floors."

Flooring Installation FAQs, answered by experts

It all depends on what you’re looking for in a floor. Cork flooring is certainly softer and more sound-absorbing than hardwood floors, and the two share very similar maintenance routines. That said, for some homeowners, the pristine appearance of hardwood floors may be more appealing, and they may be less prone to scratches and dents than cork flooring. Hardwood flooring also tends to be more expensive than cork flooring.

A subfloor's lifespan can range from 30 years to the entire life of the house, which is often between 50 and 100 years. The actual longevity depends on the material and its protection from damage. For example, while OSB may last longer than plywood, it is not the best choice for heavy flooring like ceramic tile. The most critical factor is moisture; a subfloor that avoids water damage, mold, and termites can last for decades. However, prolonged exposure to moisture will cause it to warp, rot, or grow mold, significantly shortening its life.

It’s possible to reuse household materials to cover floors, but they won’t provide the same level of protection as dedicated materials. They’re also more difficult to tape down and more prone to slipping and bunching up—and any dirt or debris on them could scratch or stain your floors. That being said, extra materials like these can be useful for protecting the sides of furniture and placing in areas that could use added protection.

Some flooring companies recycle old carpet after replacing it. The broader flooring industry has been moving toward recycling more carpet material. However, whether an individual carpet gets recycled is up to the flooring company that removes it. When gathering quotes for new flooring in your area, ask each company about removal options and what they do with the material.

You can buy inexpensive kitchen flooring off the shelf at most home improvement stores with the best prices offered by big-box chain stores. Be aware, though, that not all flooring materials are suitable for DIY installation. Most flooring contractors can buy your flooring at a discount, so be sure to check with your contractor before buying your flooring materials.
