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 New Orleans

What is the best flooring for the money?

For excellent value in New Orleans, engineered wood is often a top choice, offering the beauty of hardwood with greater stability in humid conditions. Laminate flooring can also be a budget-friendly option that mimics wood well. Discuss your specific needs with the pros for the best cost-effective solution.

What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?

The 1-3 rule for flooring typically refers to expansion gaps, suggesting a minimum gap of 1/32 inch for every inch of flooring width. This is crucial for wood floors to allow for natural expansion and contraction, preventing issues like buckling in New Orleans' humid climate. Installers will ensure proper gaps are left.

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?

Vinyl plank is generally more water-resistant and durable, making it a practical choice for kitchens and areas prone to moisture in New Orleans. Laminate offers a more wood-like appearance and can be more budget-friendly but is less resistant to water damage. The pros can advise on the best fit for your home.

What type of flooring is most popular now?

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) and engineered hardwood continue to be highly popular due to their durability, aesthetic appeal, and suitability for various home environments. Many New Orleans homeowners appreciate these for their blend of style and practicality. The pros can show you the latest trends.
