If you want to install new flooring but aren’t sure what kind, keep reading to understand some of the practical and aesthetic factors that should influence your decision,   You can choose from hardwoods, ceramic tile, bamboo, laminate, linoleum, marble, carpet, vinyl, rubber, cork and carpet.  The prices vary from product to product.  Here are some of the basic prices for materials only:

Laminate: $3.50-$4.50

Experts say solid hardwood flooring is an expensive but extremely durable choice because its usual thickness of three-quarters of an inch allows for multiple refinishings. Engineered wood flooring has a lower initial cost, but the thin top layer of high-quality wood resting atop several layers of cheaper wood allows for only one to three refinishings. Experts say solid wood flooring adds more value to a home than engineered wood, but both types are prone to denting and to fading from sunlight. Engineered wood is slightly less prone to swelling and warping with increased moisture, but neither is a good choice for rooms in which there’s frequent contact with water. So the first thing to consider is where are you wanting the new flooring.  With water damage areas like the bathroom and kitchen you would want to consider some sort of tile.  Living room areas are more prominately done in carpet, but it is totally up to your preference.  Give us a call if we can help you with any of your flooring needs.  Here are some pictures of different floorings we have installed.
