Question 1

What’s the best flooring for a kitchen or bathroom?

Accepted Answer

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) and porcelain tile are our top recommendations for wet areas — both are waterproof, durable, and easy to maintain.

Question 2

Can hardwood be installed over radiant heat?

Accepted Answer

Engineered hardwood is compatible with radiant heating systems. Solid hardwood is generally not recommended over in-floor heat due to expansion and contraction.

Question 3

Do you remove existing flooring?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we handle full tear-out and disposal of existing flooring as part of the installation process.

Question 4

How long does flooring installation take?

Accepted Answer

Most whole-home flooring projects take 3–7 days depending on square footage and material. Individual rooms can often be completed in a single day.

Question 5

Do I need to move my furniture?

Accepted Answer

Yes, furniture needs to be cleared from the work area before installation. We can advise on staging areas and sequencing to minimize disruption.

Question 6
