Flooring/Carpet

Beautiful, high quality flooring can transform a drab room into something beautiful. Irrespective of the type of flooring you like, or the location of your home you want it installed, we can leverage Advance Remodeling’s decades of experience installing flooring to ensure you’re thrilled with the final product.

Things To Consider Prior to Flooring Installation

The condition of your flooring will have a significant bearing on the cost of replacing it. As you know, it is essential that flooring be structurally sound. The condition of the so called sub-floor determines the extent of work needed to replace flooring. Put simply, structural elements under flooring ensure that the floor holds the weight of furniture, appliances and your loved ones. Rotted or damaged floor joists or plywood would need to be replaced prior to new flooring being installed. So what are some signs that your sub-floor might be damaged?

  • Your floors are uneven or sagging.
  • You floor squeaks or shifts when you walk on it.
  • Your floor bounces when you walk on it.
  • You have cracked tiles.
  • Your room smells musty without visible signs of moisture.

If you notice any of this, or otherwise feel that your flooring needs replacement, please don’t hesitate to call us for a free estimate.

Types of Flooring

Hardwood

Hardwood flooring is durable and elegant. While hardwood is among the most expensive options to install, many homeowners choose it for its classic look and longevity. Hardwood is available in numerous types of wood, including oak, cherry, walnut, hickory and maple and can be refinished several times over its useful life. In addition, many hardwoods now have waterproof and scratch resistant options.

Vinyl

Vinyl flooring is the most popular option among Advance Remodeling customers. Vinyl is durable and, relative to hardwood, cost-effective. Vinyl is made from plastic and is waterproof, scratch- and stain-resistant. Vinyl is available in multiple colors and is made to appear like hardwood planks or stone tiles, depending on your preference.

Laminate

Laminate flooring, like vinyl, is available in multiple colors and is made to appear like hardwood planks or stone tiles, depending on your preference. Laminate is available at a similar price point as vinyl, meaning it is generally more affordable than hardwood. As a result, laminate flooring has become a popular choice in many homes. One significant difference between vinyl and laminate is that laminate contains wood byproducts whereas vinyl is fully synthetic. Consequently, laminate is less advisable to install in kitchens and bathrooms due to increased likelihood of water damage.

Tiles

Tile flooring is ideal for high-moisture rooms like bathrooms, kitchens and laundry rooms. Tiles are versatile and durable, lasting many years with little maintenance. Many tile textures are available, including the following:

  • Ceramic tile is made from clay and has a softer, more comfortable walking surface compared to other types of tile flooring.
  • Porcelain tile is more durable, less porous and even more water-resistant than ceramic. However, it’s also more expensive, often considerably more.
  • Natural stone tile, including granite, marble, slate and other materials are typically less durable than ceramic or porcelain tiles, but sometimes offer a more elegant appearance, making them popular with come home-owners.
  • Other less common types of tiles include mosaic glass, metal, cement and engineered tile.

Carpet

Although less popular than other flooring options in certain parts of the house, carpet is still the go-to for many home-owners in bedrooms, basements and dens. Carpet types include texture, pattern and carpet tile. Carpet is available in numerous colors and textures thicknesses, depending on your preference and budget.
