"I hired Refloor to come back and do my basement too. The installation was delayed due to stock shortage but the floors are in and they are beautiful. I hired my own painter to stain the moldings to match the floors. The floors look so much like real wood. Great job!"
"They sanded my light oak hardwood floors down enough to be able to stain them a darker color. Excellent company. They did a great job and showed up and completed the work on time. Highly recommend."
"Quick response, fair price. Removed carpet, repaired squeaky sub floor, replaced pad and stretched/re-laid carpet in 2 rooms and hallway; replaced carpet in the other 2. Prompt and friendly, moved furniture, worked fast, cleaned up! Highly recommend."
"The choice of floors was excellent. The The salespeople were very informative and patient. The installers did expert work. The office people were helpful. Every one of these people were pleasant. We are completely satisfied."
"My historic home had many design and installation challenges, but the team did an amazing job. They ended up moving my plumbing, building out a few walls, and built the floor under my shower pan. It was a lot of work and it was a unique situation but their work was perfect nonetheless! No detail was spared and my shower is incredible. I could not be happier with the work."
"I contacted Jeff after inquiring about a free quote for a flooring coating. Jeff showed up that week and provided me with a detailed quote, explained the process, color options and provided me with a very reasonable price. Jeff did not pressure sell and was very professional and friendly to not only myself but my wife also. Jeff provided me with all the needed literature and contact information for follow up. A few days later I spoke with Jeff who scheduled me an appointment within two weeks. Leading up to the scheduled install date Jeff stayed in contact and confirmed the appointment. Jeff stated they would arrive between 8:00 AM - 8:30 AM and promptly arrived at 8:00 AM. Jeff introduced me to his partner, Pat, who was very friendly. Jeff and Pat worked for the next several hours completing the job. It looks fantastic. They did a great job cleaning up and prior to leaving Jeff explained the expectations for the next few days until the product was fully dry. I would highly recommend this company as Jeff and Pat did an awesome job. I will update my review in a few weeks with how the floor coating has held up yet I do not have any concerns."
"Dave came out and did the job on time. The crew spent 4 days here which some other companies only spend 1. My concrete is 30 years old and was pitted really bad which they ground it down to level it off. It looks level and better than new. The finish is a grey flux-color with a lot of clear on it. I’ve seen other jobs from other companies but this is by far the best. After the job was done he offered to come by and move my compressor and tools back in. What company would come back after being paid ? Dave and his crew are awesome!"
Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts
Technically, you can start tiling in a corner and work your way out. However, it's not traditionally how tiling is done. Instead, work from the bottom middle of the wall. Tile out the entire row with whole tiles before moving on to the next row. Once you finish installing all of the whole tiles, then you focus on tiling the corners.
Each flooring material has its own maintenance requirements and cleaning techniques. For example, hardwood floors may require occasional refinishing and specialized cleaning products, while vinyl and laminate are easy to clean with regular sweeping and mopping. Concrete and natural stone, on the other hand, may need periodic sealing to maintain their appearance and durability. Follow manufacturer recommendations and utilize appropriate cleaning methods to preserve the integrity of your chosen flooring material.
There are many different types of carpets for you to choose from. When choosing a carpet, it’s essential to consider the following:
Fiber: Describes what your carpet is made of, such as polyester, wool, nylon, or acrylic.
Pile type: Explains how your carpet looks. Your carpet fibers can be looped, twisted, cut, or woven.
Pile height: Describes the length of your carpet. You can choose a low, medium, or high pile.
Density: Refers to how close yarn fibers are to each other.
Yes, nylon carpets are suitable for homes with allergies due to their hypoallergenic properties. Nylon fibers are resistant to mold and mildew growth, minimizing allergen accumulation in the carpet. Additionally, nylon carpets are often treated to repel moisture and stains, further reducing the risk of allergens and promoting a healthier indoor environment for allergy sufferers.
Luxury vinyl flooring is the best for pet owners, 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.
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’s super slippery (especially for dogs).
