"RK Flooring installed a COREtec oak vinyl plank floor in our Master Bedroom/Walk-in Closet, and we couldn't be more pleased with the finished product AND outstanding customer service Rob (the owner) provided throughout the entire process. Rob quickly responded to our request via Home Advisor, took the time to educate us on the best COREtec product for us, provided a quick on-the-spot estimate, and delivered a beautiful and rich-looking floor that took only 4 hours to install. It was truly a pleasure to work with such a communicative, professional, skilled & efficient contractor, and we will certainly choose Rob and his team for any of our future flooring projects. We highly recommend that you check him out too!"

"Coastal Bay removed our existing soaking tub and adjacent shower stall to make way for an oversized tile shower and much-needed bathroom storage space. They handled everything from demo (tub and tile removal) through finish work (luxury vinyl plank flooring, drywall, trim, painting), and installed a beautiful new tile shower and new toilet. It was a pleasure working with Stephen and Dustin to plan this project, and the specialists who executed the plan were exceptional - every person on this job was professional, skilled, friendly, reliable, and on time. Special shout out to Joe for flawless tile work! These guys have integrity, would definitely recommend them."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

No, thick carpet padding isn’t necessarily better than thinner padding. The appropriate padding thickness will depend on the type of carpet and the amount of foot traffic in the area. 

For example, thick padding works well in low-traffic areas, like bedrooms, where you have soft and plush carpeting. However, thick carpet padding can damage low-pile carpet, which is used in the busiest parts of your home (like hallways and entryways). For that reason, it’s best to use thinner, heavier padding underneath carpet in high-traffic areas.

It takes about one to two days to remove carpet and install laminate flooring for small and medium-sized rooms. A larger room may take an extra day to complete. If you’re replacing flooring throughout your house, expect closer to one to two weeks, depending on your home’s square footage.

It is normal to glue carpet down, though it’s not the only or the most popular method of installing carpet. Modern techniques include tack strips and stretching the carpet, but you might still find glued carpet in older homes or a home with a DIY’d past. Removing a glued-down carpet will be harder compared to other methods of installation.

You can save money on labor costs by removing your old carpet before the professionals come in to install the new carpet. Just make sure to clear it with your contractor ahead of time. You might also be able to cut costs by buying carpet at certain times of year when it’s less expensive. These periods include late December to mid-January and late spring to early summer.

Vinyl floors last between 10 and 25 years on average when you care for them and protect them against water damage, though higher-quality vinyl can last longer.

If your vinyl flooring has heavy wear and tear or if it's peeling, it's a good time to do a reinstallation. Other signs your flooring is nearing the end of its lifespan include bubbling, heat-damaged planks or tiles, and discoloration.
