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!"

"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."

Small jobs welcome

"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!"

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

Laminate flooring takes about 24 to 48  hours to settle. Before this, planks are not completely acclimated to your home, and walking on them could cause shifting and permanent damage to the flooring. You should allow floorboards to acclimate for 48 to 72 hours before installing so that they can adjust to your home’s humidity and temperature levels, but they will continue to acclimate and settle after installation. For this reason, avoid placing any furniture in the room for 72 hours after installation.

Your floors will continue to settle for a few months after installation, becoming less bouncy as they rest.

If you have a concrete subfloor, you must secure the carpet padding with adhesive or glue. However, if you have a wooden subfloor, use staples instead. Removing a glued-down carpet can be difficult and time-consuming, so it’s best to avoid glue when possible.

Because cork flooring has a low-impact feel and is water-resistant, it is a good choice for kitchens. It makes standing to chop vegetables and stir soup for long periods of time feel much easier on your feet and legs. But keep in mind that spills can cause cork to swell if they sit for too long, so if you’re a messy home chef, keep plenty of towels nearby to keep your cork floors in good condition.

Laminate is a sturdy material that lasts 15 to 25 years if it’s properly maintained and isn’t damaged. Laminate with a higher AC rating lasts longer than laminate with a lower AC rating. For the most longevity, put laminate with an AC1 rating in low-traffic areas and use laminate with an AC3 or AC4 rating in high-traffic areas like entryways.

The life expectancy of your laminate flooring is 10 to 30 years, 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.
