What is the life expectancy of a subfloor?

• <div><p>A good subfloor can last 30 years or even longer, depending on the material. OSB should last a bit longer than plywood. However, OSB isn’t the best option for heavy flooring types like ceramic tile or stone. It’s also worth noting that regular moisture exposure will drastically reduce any subfloor's life span. </p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between a doorway floor transition and a door jamb?

• <div><p>Many doorways feature two door jambs. These are installed on both sides of a doorway to prevent the door from swinging too far. Door jambs usually stop the door at 180 degrees when closed. A doorway floor transition sits between the door jambs on the floor, helping to create a safer and more aesthetically pleasing transition from one flooring type to the next. </p></div>

Q: Can you put stair treads over carpet?

• <div><p>Yes. Many manufacturers make stair treads that you can install over carpeted stairs without needing to do any cutting or drilling. Stair treads can also be installed on wood, marble, and other stair surface materials. Just be sure to double-check the information for the specific product you&rsquo;re buying to ensure its adhesive or installation process will work with the type of stairs you have.</p></div>

Q: What carpet should you avoid for stairs?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

Q: Which hardwood floors last longest?

• <div><p>While many hardwood floors can last decades with proper maintenance, choosing a harder wood type, like hickory, can help extend the life span of your hardwood floors and reduce the amount of maintenance needed to keep them looking new and shiny. Softer hardwoods, like walnut, may not last quite as long as other types.</p></div>

Elvis came out on time and told me that the whole floor would need to be replaced, and that was outside of my budget. I just wanted a couple of sections to be replaced.
