What affects the price

The final amount for your new floors depends on a few specific things. First, it comes down to the material you choose, whether that is hardwood, luxury vinyl, or carpet. The size of the area being covered and how much prep work the subfloor needs will also play a role. If your rooms have complex layouts or lots of corners, that often adds labor time. Every home is unique, so we help you get an exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

Installing hardwood means putting down natural, solid wood planks that can be sanded and stained. You need this if you want a long-term flooring solution that can be restored multiple times. We handle everything from acclimating the wood to your home's humidity to the final protective coat. It is a significant investment that adds warmth and durability to any room. We ensure the wood is laid correctly to prevent squeaks and movement as the seasons change.

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is a top choice for Chicago homes due to its excellent water resistance, making it perfect for basements and kitchens.
