Questions we get asked
How long does a flooring installation take?
It depends on room size and material. A single room of vinyl plank or laminate often takes a day; hardwood and tile can take longer because of drying and curing time.
Can you install new flooring over my old floor?
Sometimes. It depends on the condition of the existing floor and the new material. We check the subfloor and old flooring first and tell you if removal is needed.
Does Duluth's weather affect what flooring I should pick?
Wood flooring moves with changes in temperature and moisture, which matters in a climate with cold winters and humid summers. We talk through material options with that in mind when you're choosing flooring.
Do I need to move my furniture before you arrive?
Clearing the room ahead of time lets us get started on the job itself. If there are a few heavy pieces you can't move, let us know ahead of time so we can plan around them.
What flooring holds up best to snow, slush, and salt tracked in during winter?
Vinyl plank and tile handle moisture and salt better than carpet or hardwood at entryways. We can point out which materials in the showroom are made for that kind of wear.
Can you match flooring in an older Duluth home?
Older homes often have hardwood or trim that isn't made the same way anymore. We look at what's there and find the closest match available, or help you choose a different material if an exact match isn't possible.
