"The previous contractor that laid the linoleum left ripples in the floor. It wasn't installed correctly. Top Notch Construct came in and did just that in the repairs, a Top Notch job. The team was also very professional and worked with me in understanding what they were going to do."
"Everything went wonderfully with this company. They were very professional, listened to exactly what my problem was, and explained to me how they were going to diagnose the problem and/or solve it before doing any actual work. Once they started, the team (three people came) worked together like a well-oiled machine. One was in the room with diagnostics, one was at the fuse box looking for possible problems there, and the third went into the crawlspace beneath our house to look at the physical wiring. Once the problem was found (there was a faulty wire beneath the house that had come loose from the junction box), it was fixed and tested within minutes and another full diagnostic was done to make sure there were no other possible issues. They cleaned up after themselves very neatly. They also replaced the light switch with a dimmer switch at no extra cost! Well within my budget, and came in even lower than their original (FREE) estimate! I would highly recommend this company to anyone in the Bergen County area. "
"Ian was very professional, on time and easy to communicate with. He did an excellent job installing our bamboo and cork flooring, despite our choice of cork which he had not previously worked with. He also installed new wool carpet for us, which was not easy to work with, and did a great job to make it look nice. I highly recommend his service and had no problems at all with any aspect of the job. I was even able to have our flooring ordered from lumber liquidators sent directly to him and he brought it to our house to acclimate before installation- job well done!"
"They worked for three days in a rode, then 3 to 4 hours in a weekend day. Then when I paid him in full, came one day and the other days are empty promises."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts
If you also need to know how to fill the gap between the floor and the baseboard, it's best to use a flexible, paintable latex caulk. Clean the area thoroughly to remove dust and debris. Then, apply a smooth bead of caulk along the gap using a caulking gun, and use a caulk-smoothing tool to press and smooth it into place. If the gap is large, you may need to insert backer rod, such as a foam filler, before caulking. Once dry, paint the caulk to match the baseboard for a clean, seamless look.
Carpet is most often affixed to the floor by tacks in tack strips rather than nailed or glued directly to the subfloor. The tack strips are nailed to wood subfloors. Even if you want to install carpet over concrete, you’ll adhere the tack strips to the concrete with masonry nails or a liquid adhesive.
Yes, flooring should go under the fridge and your other large appliances. Installing it underneath creates a seamless appearance and makes it easier to move appliances for cleaning or replacement. It is also essential for protecting your subfloor. A kitchen contractor will help you find suitable flooring that is durable enough to handle the weight of your fridge without denting or cracking.
Laminate flooring is susceptible to expansion and contraction during temperature fluctuations. In the summer, laminate flooring is more likely to expand, possibly giving it a crowned or warped look. In the winter, when temperatures fall, the flooring can contract, revealing gaps between the boards. This is normal and should be expected when you install laminate flooring.
Some flooring companies recycle old carpet after replacing it. The broader flooring industry has been moving toward recycling more carpet material. However, whether an individual carpet gets recycled is up to the flooring company that removes it. When gathering quotes for new flooring in your area, ask each company about removal options and what they do with the material.
