Q: How often should you strip and wax a floor?

• <div><p>You should strip and wax hardwood floors every six months to two years. The actual length of time between stripping and waxing depends on the wear and tear that the floors see. Stripping and waxing floors can help <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-repair-hardwood-floor-damage.htm">repair hardwood floor damage</a> and give the room a fresh look.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to put flooring in an attic?

• <div><p>The cost to put wooden flooring in an attic can run a wide range. Carpeting can cost as little as $1 per square foot, or even less if you opt for unfinished flooring types like rubber or painted plywood. On the high end, hardwood floors might cost as much as $45 dollars per square foot. For a previously unused space, you&rsquo;ll probably need to add a subfloor which usually costs about $5 per square foot.</p></div>

Q: Should flooring go under the dishwasher?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

Q: What type of carpet is the most expensive?

• <div><p>Berber is the most expensive type of carpet, followed by textured carpet. Berber costs $3 to $20 per square foot, and textured carpet ranges from $1 to $12 per square foot. Berber features fibers arranged in short, thick loops, making it extraordinarily durable. The most expensive carpet material is wool, followed by acrylic, Triexta, and cotton. Wool costs $4 to $20 per square foot and is a beautiful, luxurious, and durable material. Acrylic, Triexta, and cotton range from $2 to $8 per square foot.</p></div>

Q: What type of flooring is best for dogs, cats, and other pets?

• <div><p>Luxury <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/luxury-vinyl-flooring-good-choice-pets.htm">vinyl flooring is the best for pet owners</a>, as it holds up well against scratches and accidents. Non-slip stone or porcelain tile are great options as well. Each of these also provide a less slippery surface for pups that like to run around.</p><p>As for the flooring options to avoid, these are hardwood, laminate, and carpeting. Claws can scratch hardwood and tear up carpeting. On top of that, removing dog urine from hardwood floors can be difficult; likewise with carpeting. Laminate holds up much better, but it&rsquo;s super slippery (especially for dogs).</p></div>

Jeff Rice did a 100% excellent job. He is a perfectionist. He installed laminate flooring and had to remove caroet and pad. Great work and very pleasant.

Very well. It is an old house with no straight walls. Craig worked diligently to make sure the bath walls we purchased fit and were plumb. The floor was also a challenge being uneven which Craig did very well addressing it. He used various techniques to level the floor and place the new tile....

They showed up when they said they would, did the work in the time they said they, and did a beautiful job. The floors are oak and they finished them to show the natural color. I surprised what a difference the floors make in the looks of the house.

It was a small job and it was obvious that I was not a priority. The floor looked okay but not great for the price paid. The quarter round looks terrible around the moulding, and the metal transition strip was installed very poorly. I would recommend looking at other flooring companies.
