"Tom is wonderful to work with! He is very responsive and knowledgeable and reliable. He helped me pick out the perfect LVP for my kitchen. The previous installer did not do a good job and my floor was uneven and breaking and looked awful. Tom and his installers took off the old floor, leveled and repaired the sub floor and expertly installed the new floor. It looks fabulous and we love it! We would recommend Tom very highly to anyone looking for quality work and hope to have him do some more work for us in the future."
"He was able to get the whole 2nd floor completed in a short time constraint. Clean and ductless. Workers were courteous. They were also able to replace an additional board on short notice after the 2nd floor was finished. Floors look fantastic!!"
"Excellent experience! Everything was perfect & our floors came out great! We would highly recommend them & would hired them again for sure! ? ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
"They moved the refrigerator and stove. I went out for 3 hours; when I came home, the floor was done, my stove and refrigerator were returned; and my floor looks beautiful."
"Pleasure to work with, always on time and efficient, the quality is top notch!
Coordination in the field with multiple subcontractors to avoid conflict with flooring finish, the communication on the process and sequence was very professional and allowed us the builder to easily schedule other subcontractors.
We highly recommend aqua flooring for all your flooring needs, Qua is turnkey when it comes his flooring scope."
"NE Flooring was very responsive in meeting my project needs. They quickly sent a person to look at the work required, then sent pictures of the repair needed and within minutes I received their quote. I found their quote very reasonable but waited a couple of days to receive other quotes. When I decided to go with NE Flooring, just prior to the busy July 4th weekend, they immediately sent a team to make the repair the next day. They were able to do an outstanding job in repairing the floor and matching the stain on my flooring. They even came back the following day to check their work and to put another protective coating on the floor. Overall, they did an excellent job and I would highly recommend them."
"Great work again by Wu and his team. Very easy to get a quote and they got us done incredibly fast. Most importantly our new hardwood floor is absolutely gorgeous."
"I highly recommend QC Flooring with owner Quentin Carrasquillo. Quentin was very professional and trustworthy throughout the project as well as flexible when needed. I trusted him in my home and greatly appreciate his flooring expertise. So grateful to have found him here - I am a very satisfied customer since my two new white oak floors and landing as well as his work on refinishing several floors came out beautifully."
"If I could give a 10 star rating I would! Miguel and his crew did an awesome job installing vinyl wood flooring. Quick turn around from hire to finish. Highly recommend and the price was below other crazy quotes I received. You won t be disappointed. Well done Miguel. THANK YOU!"
Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts
One reason that laminate flooring has grown in popularity is that it can be installed on top of some kinds of existing flooring, therefore saving money and time. However, don’t install laminate flooring over carpet since it may void the manufacturer’s warranty. Plus, carpet is often too plush and soft to properly support a laminate flooring system.
You can lay your laminate flooring in whichever direction you'd like. However, you should check your materials' instructions and see what the maximum length limit is for the installation. This differs according to the brand you buy, but you can expect it to be around 40 linear feet. Depending on the size of the room, this might dictate which direction you end up laying the planks.
It’s better to lift and set down furniture; sliding it across the floor is more likely to cause damage to both the floor and the furniture itself. For very heavy items, consider using a dolly with rubber wheels. It is possible to purchase sliders designed specifically for gliding furniture across floors, but you still risk causing permanent damage to flooring if you use them.
Avoid placing carpet in the bathroom or the kitchen. After all, moisture is no friend to carpeting. Beyond that, it’s down to personal preference. Some people dislike when a garage or basement features carpet, but others enjoy it.
Yes, you can recycle most types of carpet. If you hire a pro to remove your old carpet, ask about their carpet disposal process. Many companies will recycle the carpeting, but if yours doesn’t, you can ask them to take it to a recycling center for you (although there might be an additional fee). Alternatively, you can hire a junk hauling service or contact a carpet recycling organization (like CARE).
