"Marcel and team did a fantastic job with the flooring. Right since the beginning from getting the quote, to committing on the dates to the installation, everything was done very professionally. They are a very experienced contractor, and it shows in the quality of work. We were also in a time crunch with our flooring job, and Marcel went above and beyond to get things done on time! He also has an amazing network of other contractors who can take care of all the other needs around the flooring job. We are very happy with our new floors and highly recommend Marcel and team for any flooring work anyone needs."

"Called Mr. Carpet about two weeks ago and received a phone call back from Mary in less than 12 hours.  She set up the appointment for Bob to come out and measure the various area slated for carpeting.  Bob arrived on time, took his shoes off and began measuring the areas for replacement.  He then showed up various samples of carpeting from three large sample books.  He also broke down his estimate to exclude some areas that we thought we would hold off on replacing.  We eventually decided to have all the areas re-carpeted so that the carpeting would flow from one area to the other.
Got a call the day before the carpeting was to be installed telling me that Carlos and his team would be doing the work and would be at the house between 9-10am.  Next morning Carlos called and told us he would be there with his team of two other workers at 8:45 which was fine with us.  They came in and immediately began relocating the furniture using profession moving techniques including runners put under the china cabinets which were then moved to another area.  Each guy had his own job and they worked very good together.  By 11 AM they had all the padding and most of the carpeting installed except for the floating stairs that needed much more work. After laying the carpet they vacuumed all the floors and disposed of the old carpeting.  
I really liked working with these guys and they knew exactly what to do in every situation.

"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."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to install carpet yourself, it is a challenging DIY project that requires precise measurement, proper cutting skills, and knowledge of correct installation techniques. The process involves multiple steps, including removing old flooring, installing underlayment and tack strips, and stretching the carpet to prevent wrinkles, which can take several days to complete.

Before starting, consider these factors:

  • Warranty: Many manufacturers' warranties are voided if the carpet is not installed by a professional.

  • Tools: You will need to buy or rent specialized equipment like a knee kicker, carpet stretcher, and seam roller.

  • Complexity: DIY installation is most suitable for simple, straightforward rooms. Projects involving stairs or floor vents are significantly more difficult.

  • Cost: While you can save on labor, the cost of tools plus the risk of expensive mistakes—which may require re-installation—can make hiring a professional more cost-effective in the long run.

Given the potential for errors, voided warranties, and the need for special tools, hiring a local carpet installer is often recommended to ensure the job is done correctly and safely.

Yes, you can technically make a crawl space liveable, but the only way to do so is by converting it into a basement. While some crawl spaces are big enough to walk through and store large items, they lack appropriate insulation and space to be liveable.

No, termites don’t eat bamboo flooring like they do hardwood flooring. That’s because bamboo is a hardy grass that is naturally resistant to many pests, including termites. If you’re concerned about termites or other pests that could damage your floors, you can achieve a look similar to hardwood without the stress of pests by installing bamboo flooring.

Yes, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls, and its cushioning can lessen the severity of an injury if a fall does occur. Hard surfaces often lack the friction needed for a secure tread and can be quite slippery.

However, it's worth noting that some carpets can also be slick, particularly if they are brand new, dirty, or made from certain materials. If any stair surface feels too slippery, traction treads can be added to most materials to increase grip and improve safety.

Protect hardwood floors in the kitchen by refinishing your floors every five to seven years or having them evaluated by a local specialist. Place mats around common food prep areas like the counter and island and keep up with treating water or grease stains as soon as they occur. Hardwood floors add a classic, rustic element of style to kitchens, but it does make them more susceptible to water damage and grease stains.
