How long does flooring installation take?+
Most single rooms are completed in 1–2 days. Whole-house projects typically take 3–5 days depending on the flooring type and amount of prep work needed.
Do I need to move my furniture?+
We can move standard furniture as part of the project. Heavy items like pianos, safes or aquariums should be moved in advance.
Can you install flooring over existing floors?+
In many cases, yes. LVP and laminate can often go over existing hard surfaces. Carpet and hardwood typically require removing the old flooring first. We assess this during the estimate.
Do you remove old flooring?+
Yes. We handle the removal and disposal of old flooring as part of the project. This is included as a line item in our estimate.
What about subfloor issues?+
We inspect the subfloor before any installation. If repairs, leveling or moisture barriers are needed, we include that in the quote so there are no surprises.
Do you offer financing?+
Yes. We offer 12-month no-interest financing for qualified customers. Checking your options does not affect your credit score.
Are you licensed and insured?+
Yes. We are fully licensed and insured for your protection.
