What affects the price

The final price for your flooring project depends on a few moving parts. First, the material itself plays a huge role; natural hardwood or premium stone will cost more than laminate or vinyl. You also have to consider the condition of your subfloor. If the installers need to pull up old carpet, level out uneven surfaces, or fix water damage before laying the new product, that adds time and labor. The total square footage and the layout of the room, including corners and closets, also affect the scope. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

Frequently asked in Fort Collins

What is the best flooring for the money in Fort Collins?

For excellent value in Fort Collins, luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is a top choice due to its durability and resistance to moisture, which is beneficial in our variable climate. Laminate flooring also offers good affordability and a wide range of styles. A pro can help you choose the best product for your specific needs.

What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?

The 1-3 rule in flooring typically refers to the expansion gap needed around the perimeter of floating floors, usually between 1/4 inch and 1/3 inch. This gap allows the flooring to expand and contract with changes in temperature and humidity. Proper installation of this gap is crucial for preventing buckling. The pros in Fort Collins understand these requirements.

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?

Vinyl plank (LVP) generally offers better water resistance, making it a strong choice for kitchens, bathrooms, and basements in Fort Collins homes. Laminate can be more budget-friendly and provides a realistic wood look but is less tolerant of standing water. The best option depends on the room's usage.

What type of flooring is most popular now in Fort Collins?

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) remains a highly popular choice in Fort Collins for its combination of style, durability, and water resistance. Hardwood flooring is also a perennial favorite for its classic elegance and value. Engineered wood is frequently chosen for its stability. Ask local professionals about current trends.
