"Matt Fisher gave us a quote and a timeframe for the job within half an hour of a no-nonsense home visit. He explained the process, what his company's responsibilities are and what we would need to do. The wood was delivered and it was beautiful, and also sustainably harvested, which we appreciated. His crew was efficient, polite, meticulous, and very knowledgeable. We got stain samples displayed on our newly installed floors, which helped us to determine what we liked. They made the new floors mesh with the refinished, 40-year-old floors, perfectly. We are very pleased."

"From the time Jerry arrived, he was extremely professional and willing to solve my rush needs for flooring. He assisted with picking out the carpet and updated me by text on a daily basis as to the status of my order. They installed my carpet a week after contracting with him and the installers were professional, quick and did an amazing job. My flooring looks beautiful and I could not be happier."

"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!"

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

Moisture management is especially critical in NC—skipping subfloor moisture testing or improper vapor barrier installation can cause warping or mold. Precise subfloor preparation prevents squeaks and gaps. Allowing materials to acclimate to Garner’s climate reduces expansion issues. Proper expansion gaps and careful planning at room transitions are essential, as local humidity and temperature fluctuations can impact the long-term durability of flooring projects.

Helpful?

In Garner, flooring professionals measure from wall to wall, assess transitions at doorways, and evaluate existing trim and thresholds. They consider subfloor stability, especially with local clay soils, and account for HVAC vents or plumbing. Project boundaries may also be influenced by HOA guidelines, matching adjacent flooring, and the need for moisture barriers due to Garner’s variable weather and common crawl spaces.

Helpful?

The property’s condition in Garner directly impacts flooring choices. Homes with uneven subfloors from shifting clay soil may need extra leveling. Older properties might require asbestos or lead paint checks before removal. Moisture issues in crawl spaces or basements influence material selection and vapor barrier use. Newer homes may have HOA rules or warranties to consider, while historic homes often need careful structural assessment.

Helpful?

After flooring installation in Garner, allow floors to acclimate by keeping indoor humidity between 35-55%, especially during humid summers. Avoid placing heavy furniture for at least 72 hours, and use felt pads to protect surfaces from scratches. Schedule a final inspection with your contractor, review specific care instructions, and for hardwood, wait 30 days before laying area rugs to ensure proper curing in Garner’s climate.

Helpful?

Flooring project timelines in Garner vary by material and home size. Hardwood floors typically require 2-5 days, while luxury vinyl plank can be installed in 1-3 days. Tile installations may take 2-6 days, and carpet is often finished within a day. Seasonal humidity in Garner can extend drying times, especially for adhesives and finishes, so scheduling may be affected during wetter months.
