Customers say: Quality work

"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!"

"Joey was not afraid to take on our somewhat-involved project - we needed 2 old in-wall AC units removed and to have the corresponding holes patched, but this included both interior wood paneling and wall construction as well as exterior brick/masonry. Joey partnered with his dad and they completed the work beautifully and well within the expected timeframe. Joey started by providing a detailed and comprehensive estimate, and he performed vital research as well, identifying the correct wood paneling that matched our existing walls. We enjoyed working with the Handybeard, recommended him to our neighbors, and look forward to using his services again in the future! He is already working with us on a future closet-reframing project. Thanks Joey and your dad!"

"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

Carpet stretching can be a worthwhile investment to increase the lifespan of your carpet and eliminate unsightly wrinkles, ridges, and ripples. For an older carpet that is in relatively good condition aside from some wrinkling or bubbling, restretching can make it look like new and extend its life by at least a couple of years. You should consider restretching when you notice looseness or other related issues.

However, it's important to note that stretching will not fix issues like stains, wear in the pile, or discoloration. Consider replacing the carpet instead if the repair cost is more than 50% of the price of a new one. Additionally, if your carpet is past its expected lifespan of five to 15 years, or if it has been stretched multiple times already, replacement is likely a better option.

Flooring transition strips can be secured to the subfloor using glue, nails, or screws. For a more secure installation, especially in high-traffic areas, using screws or nails is recommended as it reduces the risk of slippage. However, if aesthetic appeal is a priority, glue provides a cleaner, more seamless finish without any visible holes or screw heads.

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, your kitchen flooring should extend under your dishwasher. It is essential for creating a level and stable surface for the appliance and preventing moisture from seeping into the subflooring, which is costly to repair. Working with a kitchen contractor will ensure the new flooring accounts for the height of the dishwasher so it sits under the countertop properly without any glaring gaps.

Vacuum regularly, clean spills promptly, and schedule professional deep cleaning annually.
