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.

Frequently asked in Fort Lauderdale

What is the best flooring for the money in Fort Lauderdale?

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) often provides the best bang for your buck in Fort Lauderdale. It's highly resistant to moisture, which is crucial here, and comes in many attractive styles that can mimic wood or tile. The pros can help you find an LVP that fits your budget and aesthetic.

What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?

The '1-3 rule' is a guideline suggesting that installation and related costs can be about three times the price of the flooring material itself. This covers things like underlayment, removal of old flooring, and the actual labor. A detailed quote from a specialist will clarify these costs for your Fort Lauderdale home.

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?

For Fort Lauderdale's climate, vinyl plank is generally superior due to its excellent water resistance, making it ideal for kitchens and bathrooms. Laminate can be more prone to water damage and is better suited for drier, less humid environments. Let the pros explain the best fit for your home.

What type of flooring is most popular now in Fort Lauderdale?

Luxury vinyl plank remains a top choice for its durability and water-friendly nature. Many homeowners are also opting for updated tile designs or engineered wood that can better withstand humidity. The local pros can show you the latest trends.
