"Guy and Renato at G.O. Flooring are amazing! First of all extremely trustworthy. Secondly reasonable and determined to meet my expectations! They did a 4000 sq ft entire house floor install of high quality wood laminate . They moved all the furniture without using outdoor storage. They replaced existing molding. And they replaced stair steps with wood because they werenà ¢à  à  t available in laminate. They did the stairs twice because of my demands and they only charged materials. I would use them again, I am recommending them and Ià ¢à  à  m happy to answer questions."
"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."
"Gregg did a fantastic job. He laid flooring in 4 large rooms, 2 hallways and a staircase. He went above and beyond, took care of small details and I would highly recommend him."
"Great work by Marcin; he gutted the old tile floors in the kitchen and replaced with new hardwood floors complete with leveling as well as updating our living room floor; meticulous and professional dude. He also gave us care instructions for our new wood floors. Overall would recommend him and his company"
"Jason,from D & L Hardwood Flooring was a true professional. It was a pleasure to work with someone that actually returns phone calls and follows up with commitments. In addition to his outstanding service, my floors came out exactly as I wanted them. The last company I used disappointed me. I highly recommend D & L."
"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!"
"Luis and his crew did an absolutely beautiful job. They were very professional, careful and honest. Luis is easy to contact, shows up on time, gives a fair price and attention to customer satisfaction. I will confidently hire Royal Floor Sanding for future flooring projects and recommend him to my friends."
"Jim promptly replied to my project post and was very accommodating with price quote. His crew was very pleasant and did a great job installing vinyl flooring in two bedrooms. They cleaned up nicely when the job was completed. I plan to definitely use Jim again for a future floor installation. He and his crew exceeded my expectations."
"Adam and his crew did a fantastic job of refinishing our living room and dining room floors. Adam went above and beyond to make sure we were satisfied with his work. He takes pride in his work and truly cares about his customers. He excels at his craft. I would highly recommend Ontario Flooring."
Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts
There are a couple of color options to consider when installing carpet in high-traffic areas (like entrances and stairways). Medium-toned colors and patterned carpets can work well in these parts of your home because dirt and stains can blend in easily. Dark carpets will also conceal marks and spills, but they show lint and other light-colored debris. Consider a medium brown or tan for your high-traffic areas. Either way, it’s best to avoid paler shades, like white and cream, which get dirty easily.
There are many different types of carpets for you to choose from. When choosing a carpet, it’s essential to consider the following:
Fiber: Describes what your carpet is made of, such as polyester, wool, nylon, or acrylic.
Pile type: Explains how your carpet looks. Your carpet fibers can be looped, twisted, cut, or woven.
Pile height: Describes the length of your carpet. You can choose a low, medium, or high pile.
Density: Refers to how close yarn fibers are to each other.
Avoid placing carpet in the bathroom or the kitchen. After all, moisture is no friend to carpeting. Beyond that, it’s down to personal preference. Some people dislike when a garage or basement features carpet, but others enjoy it.
Most DIYers can learn how to remove carpet although it’s time and labor-intensive. However, if you have glued-down carpet and are concerned about damaging the substrate below, it's best to call a professional carpet remover. Also, removing glue-down carpet is more work than dealing with wall-to-wall carpet because you have to get rid of all traces of the adhesive from your subfloor to prepare it for a new installation.
Avoid plush, high-pile, or thick carpets on your stairs because they can increase the risk of slipping and wear down quickly in busy homes. Also, ensure the carpet you install is stain-resistant, particularly if you select a light color.
