Material & Product Questions

  • How do I choose between hardwood, LVP, tile, or carpet?

    Consider the room’s moisture exposure, traffic patterns, desired aesthetic, and maintenance willingness. Hardwood adds lasting value for living areas; LVP is excellent for moisture-prone or high-traffic rooms; tile and stone are optimal for wet areas and outdoors; carpet adds warmth and noise reduction in bedrooms and family rooms.

  • What is LVP and why choose it?

    LVP (Luxury Vinyl Plank) is a resilient waterproof flooring that mimics wood appearance but offers better resistance to moisture and heavy wear. It’s ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and homes with pets.

  • What are the key metrics for comparing LVP products?

    Look at wear layer thickness (measured in mils), core construction (rigid SPC vs. flexible), warranty terms, and locking vs. glue-down installation. Higher wear layers (e.g., 20 mil) offer longer durability.

Installation Questions

  • What preparation do I need to do before installation?

    Clear the room of furniture and personal items if possible. We provide a prep checklist in advance. For major renovations, coordinate with other trades and ensure safe access for installers.

  • How long does installation take for a typical room?

    It varies—one small room can take a day, while complex installations (patterns, site-finishing, or extensive subfloor repair) may take several days. Whole-house projects may span weeks.

  • Do you remove existing flooring?

    Yes, we handle demo and disposal as part of many projects. Disposal fees are included in estimates when applicable.

Repair & Maintenance Questions

  • Can minor floor damage be repaired?

    Many issues—scratches, small gouges, isolated water damage—can be repaired. We assess and recommend repair or replacement based on longevity and cost-effectiveness.


  • How often should I refinish hardwood?

    Frequency depends on wear and finish; re-coating may be needed every 3–7 years, while full sanding and refinishing could be necessary after more extensive wear (10–20 years depending on traffic and prior care).

  • How do I maintain tile and natural stone?

    Use neutral pH cleaners for tile; avoid acidic cleaners on natural stone. Seal stone surfaces per manufacturer recommendations; replace scratched grout as needed.

  • Do you offer workmanship warranties?

    Yes, we back our installations with workmanship commitments. Warranty specifics and duration are provided with each written proposal. Manufacturer warranties for materials are handled per product.
