"Rich and crew were courteous and did a fantastic job. Made me feel comfortable in being able to see different samples on my floor prior to job starting. I wound up choosing a different formula than the Classic Grey I was originally going for. Great communication and so pleased with the finished product- I love my new floors! So happy I chose Oak Tree!"

"I cannot recommend Erik and A-1 Flooring enough for their outstanding work. Over the past 8 years, they've transformed the hardwood floors in three of my houses, and each time, the results have been nothing short of phenomenal. What truly sets them apart is their ability to breathe new life into old floors. The 110-year-old floors in my current home now look as if they were just installed yesterday. Erik is knowledgeable, responsive, and accommodating making the entire process an absolute pleasure. Look no further!"

"David and his team did an amazing job on our floors. They refinished our existing hardwood floors and installed new flooring in part of our home, and everything blends together perfectly. David promised to finish the job in three days, and he delivered exactly as promised. The team was always on time, cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each day, and kept the house as neat as possible throughout the project. The quality of the work really stands out. The floors are beautiful, and they paid attention to every detail, especially around the kitchen cabinets, closets, edges, and the stairs. The dustless sanding system also made a huge difference. Best of all, there were no surprise charges. David was honest, easy to work with, and always responsive. We couldn’t be happier with the results and would definitely hire him again!"

"Nick was extremely professional and down right the nicest person I ever worked with respect to home improvements. He listened and did not have a sales pitch with an angle. Nick was conscientious of all parameters regarding the install and communicated the same. He/his workers were meticulous. It was truly like having family help you with a home improvement project. My foster dogs are happily enjoying their new floor. Laura"

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

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.

Installing carpet on stairs involves a lot more cutting, tucking, tack strips, and time. The shape of your staircase, along with the material and construction of the carpet you’re installing, will also increase the cost. Carpet installation on stairs will cost $400 to $800 in total, but it can go as high as $2,500 for difficult staircases, such as wrap-around, upholstered, or spiral staircases.

Yes, there are plenty of ways to lay stair carpet without grippers, such as carpet adhesive, magnetic flooring, or staples. Adhesive may be your best bet if you don’t want grippers, as it will most likely stick the best and cause the least amount of damage. However, if you’re looking for an easy fix, grippers are one of the best solutions you can purchase.

Yes, carpeted stairs are generally considered safer than stairs with hard surfaces like wood, vinyl, or tile. Carpet provides more traction, which helps reduce the chances of slips and falls, and its cushioning can lessen the severity of an injury if a fall does occur. Hard surfaces often lack the friction needed for a secure tread and can be quite slippery.

However, it's worth noting that some carpets can also be slick, particularly if they are brand new, dirty, or made from certain materials. If any stair surface feels too slippery, traction treads can be added to most materials to increase grip and improve safety.

No, thick carpet padding isn’t necessarily better than thinner padding. The appropriate padding thickness will depend on the type of carpet and the amount of foot traffic in the area. 

For example, thick padding works well in low-traffic areas, like bedrooms, where you have soft and plush carpeting. However, thick carpet padding can damage low-pile carpet, which is used in the busiest parts of your home (like hallways and entryways). For that reason, it’s best to use thinner, heavier padding underneath carpet in high-traffic areas.
