Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best flooring for the money?

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) offers the best value for most homes — it's waterproof, durable, looks like hardwood, installs easily, and costs $4-$9/sq ft installed. For resale value, real hardwood ($8-$16/sq ft) offers the highest return.

How long does flooring installation take?

Single room: 1 day. Multiple rooms: 2-4 days. Whole house: 3-7 days. Tile takes longest due to grout drying time. Floating floors (laminate, LVP) are fastest.
