"Highly recommend Brandon with Wingler’s Handyman Services for any home improvement needs. When our subfloor started showing signs it needed replacing, we reached out for an estimate. His pricing was very reasonable and he got us scheduled quickly—which matters with flooring issues. From the moment he walked in, I felt confident we were in good hands. He’s knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and made the whole process feel manageable, even with an older house that loves surprises. And of course, we had a few. 😅 Plumbing leaks, extra bracing needed… Brandon handled it all without missing a beat. What stood out most was his attention to detail. He took his time and made sure everything was done right, not just “good enough.” The finished floors turned out better than I imagined. We’re beyond happy and already have a list of future projects for him."

They put up drywall,added a ceiling, professionally painted and added a vinyl tile flooring. We couldn't ask for more. We will use Miguel and his company for any future projects."

"Outstanding crew that got in there, did the install and didnâ t mess around. When they went to work they meant it! Outstanding product and really fast installation. When the flooring product was here they came in, blitzed the house and got the old carpet out and the new flooring in. They had to move a lot of heavy furniture around to do the install and never heard a single murmur. Great experince and we love the floors!"

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

Most DIYers can learn how to remove carpet although it’s time and labor-intensive. However, if you have glued-down carpet and are concerned about damaging the substrate below, it's best to call a professional carpet remover. Also, removing glue-down carpet is more work than dealing with wall-to-wall carpet because you have to get rid of all traces of the adhesive from your subfloor to prepare it for a new installation.

While it is possible to install carpet yourself, it is a challenging DIY project that requires precise measurement, proper cutting skills, and knowledge of correct installation techniques. The process involves multiple steps, including removing old flooring, installing underlayment and tack strips, and stretching the carpet to prevent wrinkles, which can take several days to complete.

Before starting, consider these factors:

  • Warranty: Many manufacturers' warranties are voided if the carpet is not installed by a professional.

  • Tools: You will need to buy or rent specialized equipment like a knee kicker, carpet stretcher, and seam roller.

  • Complexity: DIY installation is most suitable for simple, straightforward rooms. Projects involving stairs or floor vents are significantly more difficult.

  • Cost: While you can save on labor, the cost of tools plus the risk of expensive mistakes—which may require re-installation—can make hiring a professional more cost-effective in the long run.

Given the potential for errors, voided warranties, and the need for special tools, hiring a local carpet installer is often recommended to ensure the job is done correctly and safely.

A subfloor's lifespan can range from 30 years to the entire life of the house, which is often between 50 and 100 years. The actual longevity depends on the material and its protection from damage. For example, while OSB may last longer than plywood, it is not the best choice for heavy flooring like ceramic tile. The most critical factor is moisture; a subfloor that avoids water damage, mold, and termites can last for decades. However, prolonged exposure to moisture will cause it to warp, rot, or grow mold, significantly shortening its life.

If you’re having your flooring professionally installed, both cork and bamboo are natural options that ring in at an affordable price. These flooring materials may cost as little as $2 or $3 per square foot (for comparison, some hardwood floors cost upward of $20 per square foot), and they’re also sustainable and healthy. Keep in mind that each manufacturer will set their own prices, and labor costs will add to the overall price you pay.

In most cases, carpeting isn’t kind to the wood that it’s attached to. Most carpet installation uses adhesive or nailing strips, both of which will damage wood. Conversely, you can choose to use an adhesive designed to be removed from wood, in which case carpeting can actually protect your hardwood stairs.
