"I can’t say enough good things about Tomahawk Flooring. Richard and his father were knowledgeable, skilled, professional and quick to respond whenever I had a question. They installed laminate flooring in seven rooms of our house including two bathrooms and did a great job. The floor looks wonderful. I highly recommend them."

"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."

"As a Property Manager, I can not think of a flooring contractor I would recommend more than Minuteman Floors. While in a time crunch and running out of viable options, the owner, Stephan , showed up on time, gave an honest and reasonable estimate, and had his guys finishing carpeting in our Offices less than 24 Hrs after initial meeting. His crew was polite, respectful, and hard working. Thank you again for going above and beyond!"

"I am most pleased with the quality of work, the excellent communication, the follow thru on commitments and the schedule kept.This flooring of about 900 sq.ft.and rebuilding of two stair ways had to be done in twp phases and at my request it required several return visits over a period of weeks. Ron made it easy for me to schedule the other trades so my entire kitchen and family room renovation project went smoothly... Also ----The "Ron Wilson and Son Hardwood Floors" price was very fair and reasonable.-----Thank You Ron"

"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

While carpet over carpet may provide some additional insulation and soundproofing benefits, it's not as effective as other methods. Layering carpets can add a modest buffer against noise and temperature fluctuations, but it's limited compared to installing thicker carpet padding or using specialized soundproofing materials. For optimal floor insulation and soundproofing, consider alternative solutions tailored to your specific needs and budget, such as adding additional padding or soundproofing underlayments beneath the carpet.

When you install laminate flooring, you have to install spacers (also called expansion gaps) along the edges. This space along the edges gives the flooring the room it needs to naturally expand and contract. When you don't have an expansion gap, you can end up with damaged or warped planks. This can lead to uneven flooring, which is unsightly and can cause a trip hazard.

Whether you install flooring before or after kitchen cabinets depends primarily on the type of flooring you are using. For materials like hardwood, tile, and sheet flooring, the best practice is to install the flooring first. This ensures the cabinets are installed at the correct height and on a stable surface. However, you should not install cabinets on top of floating floors, such as laminate or luxury vinyl plank (LVP). These types of flooring need room to expand and contract with temperature and humidity changes. Placing heavy cabinets on top can restrict this movement, potentially causing the floor to buckle and making the cabinets unstable. For floating floors, install the cabinets first and then lay the flooring up to them. Other reasons to consider installing cabinets before the flooring include saving money on materials (since you won't need flooring under the cabinets) and avoiding potential damage to your new floor during cabinet installation. Additionally, installing cabinets directly on the subfloor might prevent voiding your flooring's warranty.

Houses naturally settle over time, but they should settle uniformly with no apparent settling in one spot. If your floor is uneven but only in a particular area of your home, differential settlement could be the problem. This can be caused by improper drainage, erosion, expanding soil, earthquake activity, or poor construction techniques.

You can use underfloor heating with most kinds of flooring. However, particularly thick carpet will create problems, since it will absorb a lot of the heat and make it difficult to feel. Also, there are some concerns that underfloor heating can dry out natural wood over time, so if you have wood flooring, get an expert opinion on whether radiant heating is appropriate.
