"I'm very pleased with the installation of my bathroom shower/floor tile. The workers conducted themselves professionally, covering floors and stairs to protect them. Cleaning after the job was complete. The bathroom looks fabulous! Floor Installations brought my vision to life. I highly recommend them and will be using them for future projects."

"Very pleased with the result. Stephen spent a lot of time talking with my wife and I about our options and gave us a fair price quote. The floor had been covered with carpet for the last 50 years, and when it was ripped up, he discovered that there were pet stains. Realizing that we were price conscious, Stephen said he and the team would take the extra time to try to mitigate the stain at no additional cost to us. I'd definitely recommend Extreme Flooring."

"Amazing - Mainor and Evelyn were a pleasure to work with. Mainor even won over our grumpy old dog. Honest, good vibes and flexible, which was good because our project was a mess! Post-hurricane cleanup took months and our project crossed from 2021 to 2022 and Evelyn never made me feel bad. The floors look AMAZING now that they're in and I can't wait until we save up for floors upstairs since we already know who will do them!"

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

If you’re using a carpet runner instead of a traditional carpet, pay attention to your width measurements. Instead of measuring the total width of your staircase with 2 added inches for foldover, simply measure the width you’d like the runner to cover. Runners generally come in standard sizes, so you may need to approximate what would look best in your space.

You can lay your laminate flooring in whichever direction you'd like. However, you should check your materials' instructions and see what the maximum length limit is for the installation. This differs according to the brand you buy, but you can expect it to be around 40 linear feet. Depending on the size of the room, this might dictate which direction you end up laying the planks.

Laminate flooring takes about 24 to 48  hours to settle. Before this, planks are not completely acclimated to your home, and walking on them could cause shifting and permanent damage to the flooring. You should allow floorboards to acclimate for 48 to 72 hours before installing so that they can adjust to your home’s humidity and temperature levels, but they will continue to acclimate and settle after installation. For this reason, avoid placing any furniture in the room for 72 hours after installation.

Your floors will continue to settle for a few months after installation, becoming less bouncy as they rest.

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.

While not always required, experts recommend removing baseboards before removing old carpet and installing a new one. This practice leads to a smoother process and a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. Removing the baseboards allows for a seamless carpet installation without the risk of damaging either the carpet or the trim. It also provides a good opportunity to repaint or stain the baseboards and inspect the underlying wall for any issues. If you prefer a quicker option, you can carefully cut the old carpet along the edge of the baseboards, but this may result in a less polished installation for the new carpet.
