Which flooring increases home value?

• <div><p>Hardwood offers the highest ROI at around 75%. Engineered hardwood, tile, reclaimed wood, and laminate also increase a home’s value but with lower ROIs. Lighter tiles tend to increase a home’s value slightly more than darker tiles. Taking the ROI into account when you choose flooring can increase your home value and allow you to recoup some or all of the cost to install it.</p></div>

Do carpet tiles stay in place?

• <div><p>Yes. When installed properly, the strong adhesive on carpet tiles keeps them in place while also allowing homeowners the flexibility to peel up an individual tile and replace it if they need to. It’s important to keep in mind that the adhesive on your carpet tiles may take some time to cure, so it’s best to leave them alone for a couple of days after you first install them.</p></div>

Should I replace or refinish my floors?

• <div><p>There are some circumstances that may require a full replacement of your hardwood floors, such as major flooding or crowning of the boards. Learn more about these specific situations in our article, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/costs-vs-benefits-hardwood-flooring-repair.htm"><i>Should You Repair Or Replace Your Hardwood Floors</i></a>, to identify whether or not it makes more sense to take on a refinishing project or completely replace them.</p></div>

Does a room have to be empty to restretch the carpet?

• <div><p>Your room doesn’t need to be completely empty to restretch a carpet, but you’ll need enough space that you can move around furniture to access the wrinkled areas and the wall where you’re reattaching the carpet. A contractor will move your furniture out of the way before they start the job, but you can save money by moving your furniture before they arrive.</p></div>

Q: Does a room have to be empty to restretch the carpet?

• <div><p>Your room doesn&rsquo;t need to be completely empty to restretch a carpet, but you&rsquo;ll need enough space that you can move around furniture to access the wrinkled areas and the wall where you&rsquo;re reattaching the carpet. A contractor will move your furniture out of the way before they start the job, but you can save money by moving your furniture before they arrive.</p></div>

Q: Does carpet over carpet increase the insulation and soundproofing of the room?

• <div><p>While carpet over carpet may provide some additional insulation and soundproofing benefits, it's not as effective as other methods. Layering carpets can add a modest buffer against noise and temperature fluctuations, but it's limited compared to installing thicker carpet padding or using specialized soundproofing materials. For <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-insulate-a-floor.htm">optimal floor insulation</a> and soundproofing, consider alternative solutions tailored to your specific needs and budget, such as adding additional padding or soundproofing underlayments beneath the carpet.</p></div>

I paid $13,000 for foundation repairs that did not ever address the 3" of sinking floors to the middle of my floors, after getting 2 separate opinions/quotes from Groundworks and Peak Structural, Inc., owned by the same company.

You wonâ t find a better group of guys to work with. The job was done right, completed on time, and in the budget. They removed walls, installed a new tub, installed tile on backsplash and floor, repaired our outside dormers and more. They can do it all.

We bought some ceramic tile back in the summer of 2015 and had it installed in our house. They did a very good job on the install and started and ended about the time they said they would. We have had multiple compliments on our flooring. Would definitely use again.

Though I could be wrong, I'm fairly sure that two things in my house were big reasons why a lot of people didn't buy it before I did - one of the old bathrooms was so small that it was functionally a half bath even though it counted as a full bath and the kitchen was a flat depressing gray color...
