"Defender Flooring did an awesome job on my floors and they were professional from day one. The entire process went smoothly from choosing the stain to recommending what to use on my floors afterwards. I would not only recommend them, I would hire Defender Flooring again."

"I recently hired Milton and his company to replace my laminated flooring, which had been damaged by a flood. They did an outstanding job, installing beautiful tile flooring and completing all the work in just five days. I’m extremely pleased with the quality, professionalism, and efficiency they demonstrated throughout the project. Milton was easy to communicate with and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I’m so happy with the results that I already plan to rehire him next spring to renovate my kitchen. Highly recommend!"

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.

Dust mites feed on dead skin cells, which means your bed is a haven for them. They also like the warmth and humidity in your mattress because that is the climate required for them to survive. That’s why it’s vital to vacuum your mattress and regularly wash your linens to keep mites from living in your bed. 

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.

If you don’t want to use carpet as a covering for your stairs, you have several alternatives. A few popular choices include hardwood, laminate, and rubber flooring.

Furniture pads and rugs are simple ways to protect your floors as they prevent furniture from scratching them, reducing wear and tear. The same goes for trimming your pet’s nails since they can scratch the floors as well. You can also apply a protective finish every few years to maintain the floor’s appearance.
