Flooring Installation Sarasota

If you’re looking for flooring installation Sarasota then you’ll be happy to know that wood flooring is low maintenance, strong and durable, improves air quality and adds value to your home. Here is an overview of each type of flooring with an approximate cost per square foot.

Hardwood flooring Installation Sarasota

Solid Hardwood floors are typically the most expensive flooring made from solid wood and provide the best acoustics. Due to the absorbent nature of hardwood, flooring you should not install it in wet areas such as kitchens bathrooms, laundry rooms, mud rooms etc. When cared for correctly hardwood floors can last a lifetime and can be refinished multiple times to give a like-new look without installing new flooring.

Engineered Hardwood Sarasota

Engineered hardwood is made up of multiple layers similar to plywood with a thinner layer of solid wood on top. When comparing to hardwood, engineered hardwood is more stable and not as prone to moisture changes. High quality engineered hardwood can be refinished once to double the effect lifespan. This is my personal choice, we used a bamboo engineered hardwood in our home

Laminate Flooring Installation Sarasota

Laminate flooring coating (the bit you see)is typically made with synthetic resin treated cellulose. Providing a tough finish that looks like wood. It is a very popular choice in many homes.

Luxury Vinyl Plank (LVP)

Luxury Vinyl planks are becoming more and more popular and the fastest-growing product in the flooring industry. The main reason being the vinyl planks are 100% moisture resistant which gives an advantage over all the wood product. The versatile boards can being floated or glue down. The boards have the appearance of wood but still have a slightly plastic feel to them. If you want a warm flooring in your bathroom then Vinyl plank is the choice.

Discounted Flooring

If you are installing flooring in a small room such as a closet or small bedroom be sure to check out the clearance sections. Once companies run low on a type flooring they will discount the boxes giving you some great savings on a limited selection.

Installation options

Floating the floor

Floating the floor is the quickest and cheapest method to install your floor. A floated floor has more freedom to move, is less susceptible to warpage and provides a softer feel underfoot. The installation includes a plastic vapor barrier and a padded underlay with the floor installed on top. You need to factor in an additional.

Gluing

Gluing provides a solid installation by securing the wood or vinyl directly to the subfloor. It provides a different sound and is typically louder than a floated floor with a much more secure feel. It is important to use high-quality glue.

Nailing

If you are installing over a joisted floor you can nail down the flooring directly to the floor joists or plywood subfloor. You can even get creative and nail the flooring to the ceiling for a fresh look.

Trim work

There are two main options to finish the flooring when it comes to trim. My preferred method is to remove the baseboards prior to the installation and then install them again after on top of the new flooring. The other option is to add 1/4 round all the way around the room. We can also remove your baseboards and install new, upgraded trim.
