"I highly recommend Imperial Wood Floors to anyone getting their wood floors refinished. My finished floors are beautiful and Imperial fully met my expectations. The sanding was truly low dust! They did everything that the said they would: reasonable pricing, showed up and completed the job in quoted time frame, and even took care of some extra task."

"Ballweg installed the floor when we finished our basement. We?ve had zero problems with the floor the past decade. It was an easy process. Tony had extreme attention to detail. He was honest and on time. I felt like we were in the loop with the project from start to finish. I?d recommend him to anybody who wants a job well done and peace of mind before, during, and after the project."

"Everything went as smooth as possible! From meeting with the salesman and picking a color to talking with the office and scheduling. Day before install they reached out to confirm and day of install crew called and was right on time. Install crew was very knowledgeable and answered any questions I had at the time. When the install was finished they were very informative with dry times and maintenance, not to mention how clean they left the work area. Any future work I will be sure to go with garage experts of Madison!"

"We could not find a local flooring company that wanted to talk with us - either too busy for months or no reply to our message. Called Empire, talked with them the next day, flooring installed the next week at our convenience. Not sure how the price compares since we couldn't get a second quote locally. Installers were great to work with, worked fast, and did an excellent job."

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.

Carpet is most often affixed to the floor by tacks in tack strips rather than nailed or glued directly to the subfloor. The tack strips are nailed to wood subfloors. Even if you want to install carpet over concrete, you’ll adhere the tack strips to the concrete with masonry nails or a liquid adhesive.

You typically aren’t in any immediate danger if your floors are sagging, but that doesn’t mean you should leave them unattended. Sagging is likely a sign of underlying problems with the structure of your home, such as uneven subflooring or rotting joists. Have your floors inspected by a local carpenter as soon as possible to help you determine the type of repairs needed.

Yes, installing underlayment underneath the laminate flooring is necessary. The underlayment has many benefits like preventing water damage to your subfloors, insulating the floor for sound, and providing an even surface for the planks to sit on.

When you skip the underlayment, you can end up with serious issues, including water damage to your subfloors, noisy planks, and an uneven floor.

Laminate flooring should be stacked horizontally and laid flat to avoid any warping or stress to the boards. To stack it, you should do so in a grid with each row of flooring packages positioned at a 90-degree angle to the layer beneath it. This will provide the best support so the flooring will not sag in the middle.
