WHAT DOES THE FLOORING PROCESS LOOK LIKE?

We believe that the best way to experience our full scale of services is by coming into our expansive showroom and meeting us in person.

HOW LONG DOES FLOORING INSTALLATION TAKE?

Installation duration depends on several factors, including existing flooring that may need to be demoed, type of flooring being installed, total square footage, etc. Typically, carpet installations are completed in one day by our team and hard surface installations larger than one room take multiple days. Tile almost always takes a minimum of two days, due to dry-time required for thinset. Contact our flooring company in Round Rock, TX to learn more about installation times.

HOW DO I CLEAN MY CARPET?

Frequent vacuuming is necessary. If you have a stain, the manufacturer may have a cleaning key on their website to assist you in stain removal. Most carpet manufacturers recommend having your carpets professionally cleaned by a certified company at least once every 18 months. This is also important to keep the warranty intact. Please hold onto all receipts. Questions for our flooring company in Round Rock, TX? We've got you! Reach out to us.

HOW DO I CLEAN MY HARD SURFACE FLOORS?

Most hard surface floors can be cleaned by sweeping. For floors that can tolerate some topical moisture, you can spray or lightly damp-mop using a pH-neutral cleaner. Both Swiffer Wet-Jet & Bona are pH-neutral. Always test any new cleaner on a small section of your floors first to ensure there are no reactions. Feel free to give us a call if you have any questions! See why we're the flooring company Round Rock, TX residents love.

HOW DO I PREPARE MY HOME FOR FLOORING INSTALLATION?

When you place an order with our flooring company in Round Rock, TX, we will provide you with a list of things to expect that should answer all of your questions. Generally speaking, we ask that you take care of moving all small things, breakables, and electronics. We do move furniture items. Depending on the flooring being installed, you may not have access to certain rooms until flooring installation is complete. Please be aware that flooring demo and installation can be dusty and create some mess. We do our best to minimize this, but please plan on cleaning once installation is complete. This can also be noisy, so if you, your household, or pets are sensitive to noise, you may want to make arrangements to be out of the house during working hours.

DO I HAVE TO BE HOME WHILE THE CREW IS WORKING?

No. Our flooring company in Round Rock, TX asks that you be on-site the first morning of installation to meet the crew and go over any questions. From there, you are free to come and go as you please.

WHAT ARE THE PROS AND CONS OF EACH TYPE OF FLOORING?

Each individual flooring type and style has different pros and cons. We can discuss this more in-depth in the showroom. For now, here’s a quick rundown from our flooring company in Round Rock, TX. Tile is extremely durable and easy to clean. Moisture doesn’t generally affect it. However, if you have known foundation issues, the tiles could crack. Tile is also colder and harder underfoot. Hardwood is the real thing! Nothing beats nature. According to Dumpsters.com, wood is used for 51% of floor replacements. Since hardwood is a real product, each plank is different from the rest. It never goes out of style and is generally viewed as a premium flooring product. However, hardwood has a higher tendency to scratch and dent and is susceptible to moisture and humidity. These things simply mean you may need to take a bit more care with a real hardwood floor. Laminate is engineered for households with kids and pets. Laminate is durable and when maintained properly can look the exact same 20 years after installation, in our experience! Laminate is also budget friendly. However, since it’s a wood based product, it can be more susceptible to moisture and humidity (though we do have LOTS of waterproof options). Luxury Vinyl Plank is generally the most water-proof, aside from tile. WPC and SPC vinyl planks can be installed in bathrooms! Durability and style vary a lot among the different categories of LVP. This flooring type installs easily and continues to grow in popularity. Carpet is soft, cozy and warm! Many people prefer to have carpet in bedrooms and rooms where they spend a lot of time on the floor. It is quiet, soft underfoot and generally the least expensive flooring to purchase and install. There are even pet-friendly carpets with fantastic warranties!

DO I REMOVE MY EXISTING FLOORS BEFORE INSTALLING NEW FLOORS?

In most cases, yes. It is generally recommended to remove the old floor first. If we don’t, there could be a number of potential issues – voided warranties, door clearance, etc. 

Is there someone who can help me choose the right flooring for my home?

Yes! We are happy to have a conversation with you about your household (i.e. do you have pets, active children, etc.) to help determine what floors may perform the best for your home. 

We can also make recommendations based on trends and style. If you'd like more thorough, personalized assistance, we have fabulous designers we can recommend!
