How do you protect hardwood floors?

• <div><p>Furniture pads and rugs are simple ways to protect your floors as they prevent furniture from scratching them, reducing wear and tear. The same goes for trimming your pet’s nails since they can scratch the floors as well. You can also apply a protective finish every few years to maintain the floor’s appearance. </p></div>

Q: What outdoor flooring is not slippery?

• <div><p>Outdoor kitchens get wet and are sometimes next to pools. To avoid accidents, go with a non-slip material like concrete, brick, or rubber. Avoid materials like ceramic and porcelain, as they are known to be quite slippery. Wood and composite flooring can be slippery if untreated, so make sure to stain or finish these materials.</p></div>

Q: What is the safest type of flooring?

• <div><p>Carpeting with a low pile is both slip-resistant and soft, making it one of the safest types of flooring in the case of slips and falls. In order to be fully ADA-compliant, carpet shouldn&rsquo;t exceed the thickness of half an inch, and you should secure the edges to the floor to prevent trip hazards. </p><p>Other ADA-compliant flooring options include hardwood, laminate, or ceramic tile with a gritty, anti-slip surface. Ceramic or porcelain tile are actually some of the best types of flooring for wheelchair users.</p></div>

Q: Are bamboo floors high maintenance?

• <div><p>Bamboo floors are fairly low-maintenance. You&rsquo;ll need to sweep or vacuum them regularly to remove debris and rub off scuffs quickly to prevent permanent damage. Bamboo is vulnerable to moisture, so wipe up spills immediately to prevent permanent damage. When comparing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/bamboo-flooring-vs-hardwood.htm">bamboo flooring vs. hardwood</a>, you&rsquo;ll notice that the maintenance requirements are similar for both types of flooring.</p></div>

Q: What is the life expectancy of laminate flooring?

• <div><p>The life expectancy of your laminate flooring is <b>10 to 30 years,</b> depending on how well you maintain it. Unlike hardwood flooring, you cannot refinish laminate to prolong its lifespan. So while laminate is more budget-friendly, it does not last as long as hardwood. You can increase the lifespan of your floor by maintaining a regular cleaning schedule, using the right cleaning products, and wiping up spills promptly.</p></div>

The process started with Brent, who listened to what I wanted and guided me in the right direction. Since I had a dog, a hatred for carpet, and no idea how to pick out flooring, he led me to a hand-scraped hickory. I fell in love. Then he helped me choose a tile that worked with the wood and my...

They were pretty reliable. They were probably a little more expensive in some place but sometimes it’s worth it. Their reputation is excellent in this area.

It was an insurance claim and we paid them $1,000 three times because we had them out three different times. It went well. They were very helpful and they did what we asked them to do. We dealt with several different people. We would use them again.
