"This was the second time I’ve hired Jose to install flooring! He did the living room and kitchen last year, and the bathroom and hallway most recently! He is always professional, a great communicator, and an expert at installing my floors. Jose and his team were in and out in just one day! They worked really quickly and efficiently, and the finished product looks great. If I had any more floors to redo, I’d have Jose and his team back in a heartbeat!"

"Apex is a 2-person business. Michael and John form a great team, both passionate about making your floor look great, and are artisans. They only do hardwood floors. This has merits. They focus on doing one thing, great. And since it is their reputation at stake, they put their best into each project. You will see them work 6 days a week until your job is done well. Michael works on getting new business at a very reasonable price. He procures raw material+tools for a job and helps John. John is a perfectionist who delivers (oxymoron). He has a great work ethic and will not waste any time. Michael and John installed new hardwood floor in the main floor of our house. They leveled the sunken floor in one of our rooms with the rest, removed a sloppily installed slate floor (by prior owner), laced the new floor with existing hardwood floor. We so love our new floor that we feel like licking it :). I plan to hire Apex again in the future to install hardwood flooring in our upstairs. I highly recommend Apex. What more do you need than the best people in the trade working on your floor and making it look great, at a very competitive price?"

"Very pleased with the professional and friendly service received. Eric, the owner, was professional and easy to work with. I appreciated his help with narrowing the flooring choices to what product would be best for what I needed, ie, stand up to heavy traffic in the entryway as well as being waterproof for the baths and kitchen. He also promptly provided all the documentation required by my HOA for approval of what I wanted done. I kept changing my mind about which direction to lay the flooring, so when it was delivered, Eric helped lay out a box of the flooring so I could get a better idea of how it would look overall, very nice. Dan, the installer was also professional and did a great job. I particularly liked the job done cutting the bottom of the door frames to slip the flooring underneath. Looks like it was just meant to be that way. Since the name of his showroom is Floors and More, I asked if he did counter tops too. He worked with Andrew Shubin at Pro Granite to order the quartz for the kitchen and find remnants for the baths which helped keep the cost down. Very pleased all the way around. I plan to have him install carpet in the near future and possibly replace the tile around the fireplace."

"I had my hardwood floors refinished and the results are amazing—the floors look brand new. This was the only company willing to take on the job since others said it was too complicated. Their years of experience really showed, and they finished the work quickly without cutting corners. I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. If you need hardwood floors refinished, I’d definitely recommend this team—they know what they’re doing. My go-to the next time I have a flooring project."

"George and his crew did a fabulous job on our hardwood floors. When George came to give an estimate for the work, he was so thorough with his recommendations and suggestions. He needed no prompting about what needed to be done. He offered several options and because our base trim is fiberboard, I choose to paint the base trim myself after he was finished. BTW, frog tape is fabulous. An important factor to keep in mind is that his sanding machine used a 240 V connection which means his equipment is industrial grade and does an excellent job. His communication during the process was excellent, keeping us informed and inviting us back to check on things as he progressed - you cannot stay in the house if you do a Swedish finish, the fumes are overwhelming during the application and drying process. His follow-up and response was outstanding. He has a pleasant personality and we enjoyed working with him. I am happy to provide our unqualified recommendation for George and his company, European Custom Flooring."

"Vasilly explain in greater detail how his and his crew plan to install the hardwood flooring. Due to a back injury I suffer from Iraq, he and his crew move all the heavy items and furniture to begin the project. When he identified a possible concern, he immediately brought it to my attention and gave me his professional experience and options to rectify that issue. His professionalism N customer service was beyond my expectations. Vitaliy, Carpentry expertise was a work of art. The project took only two days which included the removal of carpet, padding, furniture moving and baseboards to install the flooring of a house thatâ s just under 2100 sq ft. The best money Iâ ve spent upgrading this house."

Flooring Installation questions, answered by experts

A stair runner is a length of carpet installed in the center of the staircase, either on top of or in between hard materials installed on the staircase. The carpet doesn’t cover the entire length of the steps, making stair runners an aesthetic choice. Thankfully, if you want hard materials on your stairs to show through, a stair runner will make it safer, as the primary area you walk on will be less slippery thanks to the carpet. 

Carpeting has a few benefits on stairs in addition to being a cost-effective floor covering. It absorbs sound, dampening footsteps. It also provides additional traction, which is especially important if you install linoleum floors, epoxy flooring, or any other floor covering that can become slippery if you’re wearing socks. Therefore, carpets can help prevent slips. 

Experts advise that replacing carpeting can bring a 50% to 80% return on investment. However, new carpeting doesn’t necessarily add value to your overall home value. Because flooring value heavily depends on taste, it can be tricky to determine whether new carpet will increase your home sale price. Carpeting tends to be a renovation that increases overall comfort and aesthetics for your home, but it’s not a big factor in value.

Luxury vinyl flooring is the best for pet owners, as it holds up well against scratches and accidents. Non-slip stone or porcelain tile are great options as well. Each of these also provide a less slippery surface for pups that like to run around.

As for the flooring options to avoid, these are hardwood, laminate, and carpeting. Claws can scratch hardwood and tear up carpeting. On top of that, removing dog urine from hardwood floors can be difficult; likewise with carpeting. Laminate holds up much better, but it’s super slippery (especially for dogs).

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.
