"Our floors are beautiful! Joe and his team were professional, very responsive and showed great attention to detail. Their work was excellent. We had Joe refinish the hardwood floors in two rooms of our home. The floors were in poor condition, scalloped and marred, the result of a “homeowner special” refinishing job by the previous owner. We were very happy with the quality of the work and immediately scheduled to have the floors in an additional room refinished. We couldn’t be happier!"

"Bill did an excellent job patching my carpet. We moved a wall and needed to have a 3x6 oddly shaped patch put in our berber carpet. The finished product was seamless and looked like an original install. He also did a great job matching the pattern. I would hire Bill for any of my flooring needs! Thanks Bill!"

"Justin is a perfectionist, his craftmanship was apparent as my fence was not a run of the mill installation. He communicated very well along the way and I highly recommend him, he has integrity and his engineering background did come in handy during the project. He left the job site spotless."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

Steam mops can be a better option than traditional mops because the steam can lift stubborn dirt from floors without using chemicals, and it also kills bacteria and dust mites. However, steam mops have drawbacks: they are more expensive, require an electrical outlet, and are not suitable for all flooring types, such as laminate or hardwood, which can be damaged by the steam.

Regular mopping can also sanitize floors effectively when done with the right cleaning products and techniques, though it may require more effort. The main advantage of a traditional mop is its versatility, as it can be used on any type of flooring. Ultimately, the best choice depends on your floor type, budget, and cleaning preferences.

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. 

You’ll find many of the options we listed at big-box home improvement retailers and department stores, as well as smaller independent floor specialists in your area. Many of these stores offer full-service installation of the products they sell, and others may offer to refer you to a trusted partner for installation.

You can also shop for these products online. We recommend shopping around to compare prices, service offerings, and reviews from previous customers to help make a more informed final decision.

In most cases, you do not need to put padding or underlayment under carpet tiles. Unlike traditional carpet, which requires a separate pad, carpet tiles are designed to be installed directly onto a firm subfloor like plywood, concrete, or tile. Many carpet tiles come with a built-in underlay and attach with peel-and-stick adhesive, double-sided carpet tape, or glue. For a more comfortable, cushioned feel, especially in residential settings, you can opt for padded carpet tiles that have a thicker underlay attached. While it's generally not recommended to install a separate pad, a compact underlayment might be used in some situations, though this typically requires professional installation. An acoustic underlay may also be considered in commercial spaces or multi-level homes where noise reduction is a priority.

There could be several reasons why your carpet padding has adhered to the floor. Some of the most common reasons include:

  • There was intentional gluing or stapling to the surface.

  • The polyurethane and floor bonded over years of wear.

  • Pet urine, spills, or other substances leaked through the carpet and created a sticky surface.

If the carpeting in the home has not been changed in a long time, clearing off the padding underneath could be difficult. Pet urine can wreak havoc on carpeting and the flooring underneath. If you plan to reinstall carpeting, remember to use proper cleaning techniques for removing pet urine odors to prevent future problems.
