"My experience with Landry Wood Flooring was excellent. The refinished 40 year old wood floors are beautiful. Everybody that sees the wood flooring, for the first time, makes a similar comment. They were prompt, did what they said they would do, professional, and excellent pricing. Only negative comment is that they didn't tape off the white floor molding before staining wood floor. The molding will require touch up. Intend to extend the wood flooring in the future and will be calling Landry Wood Flooring to do the installation."

"The wood floor we had needed cleaning but we found out that due to its age and type of floor, the cleaning would not improve it. We suggested it be replaced and Minuteman Floors gave us the information needed to make an informed decision. It was scheduled and we had to postpone and then they had to postpone, but this week all came together and everything was done no problems. People need to realize it is difficult to schedule items like this by the vendor so there needs to be give and take on the date/time. In the end we are happy."

"Highly recommend! Excellent communication and service! I needed the floors refinished on a specific date and Ron was very accomodating. He answered my calls and emails promptly. He arrived right on time with a great team. They completed the job on time. The floors in the 100 year old house looked brand new when they were done. I was very impressed with this company!!"

"We hired Steve and team because of multiple great reviews from friends and they did not disappoint. We had 2 separate leaks in our basement that ruined the finished floor. They did an incredible job replacing the floor while adding safeguards against water in the future. 5 Stars! Highly Recommend!"

"Ryan and his Shed Dog crew were fantastic and we're so glad we hired them to refinish our oak and pine flooring in Westford. They did 6 rooms and two long hallways, were able to start earlier than planned and finished right on time. The floors are gorgeous, the rate was very reasonable, and Ryan and team were friendly and great to have around. Highly recommend!"

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

If you have a concrete subfloor, you must secure the carpet padding with adhesive or glue. However, if you have a wooden subfloor, use staples instead. Removing a glued-down carpet can be difficult and time-consuming, so it’s best to avoid glue when possible.

One reason that laminate flooring has grown in popularity is that it can be installed on top of some kinds of existing flooring, therefore saving money and time. However, don’t install laminate flooring over carpet since it may void the manufacturer’s warranty. Plus, carpet is often too plush and soft to properly support a laminate flooring system.

Impervious or vitreous tile and vinyl flooring work best for the kitchen. These surfaces are non-porous (or have a very low porosity) that can stand up against spills, splashes, and plumbing leaks. Some natural stones are also a good fit, but keep porosity in mind. You may need to seal them to avoid stains and water damage to the subfloor.

Now that you know the true pleasure of a squeaky-clean floor, you’re probably wondering how to keep floors clean between mop days. Here are the best tips to keep your floor looking spotless:

  • Give floors a quick daily swipe with a microfiber mop.

  • Keep a spray bottle of your cleaning solution on hand to use as needed.

  • Sweep daily and vacuum once or twice a week.

  • Clean up spills and messes as soon as they happen.

  • Place a doormat at each entrance to your home to reduce mud tracking.

  • Consider enforcing a “no shoes inside” policy.

  • Wash your pet’s paws before letting them back inside.

You can save money on labor costs by removing your old carpet before the professionals come in to install the new carpet. Just make sure to clear it with your contractor ahead of time. You might also be able to cut costs by buying carpet at certain times of year when it’s less expensive. These periods include late December to mid-January and late spring to early summer.
