Frequently asked in Boston

What is the best flooring for the money in Boston?

For value in Boston, consider engineered hardwood or high-quality laminate. They mimic the look of solid wood but can be more budget-friendly. The pros can explain how these options hold up in our climate and with daily wear and tear, helping you make a smart investment for your Boston home.

What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?

The 1 3 rule generally refers to the expansion and contraction of wood flooring due to humidity changes. Understanding this is crucial in a city like Boston with its distinct seasons. The pros will account for this by ensuring proper expansion gaps around the perimeter of your room, preventing buckling or gapping later on.

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate for a Boston home?

Both vinyl plank and laminate offer durable, water-resistant options suitable for Boston's varied conditions. Vinyl plank often excels in moisture-prone areas like kitchens, while laminate can offer a more convincing wood aesthetic. The specialists can help you decide based on the specific room and how you plan to use the space.

Hardwood flooring, especially lighter-toned oaks and wide planks, remains very popular in Boston homes.
