Frequently asked in Fort Lauderdale

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

Considering the humidity and potential for moisture, luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is a top contender for value. It's highly water-resistant and durable, making it great for homes near the coast. Pros can advise on the best long-term value for your specific Fort Lauderdale property.

What is the 1-3 rule for flooring?

The 1-3 rule typically refers to expansion gaps for floating floors, meaning a gap of about 1/3 inch is needed around the perimeter. This is vital in humid climates like Fort Lauderdale to prevent buckling. Pros ensure this is done correctly for longevity.

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?

For Fort Lauderdale's climate, vinyl plank often has the edge due to its superior water resistance. Laminate can mimic wood beautifully but is less ideal for areas prone to spills or high humidity. Pros can help you weigh these factors.

What type of flooring is most popular now?

Luxury vinyl plank continues to be a major trend due to its versatility and resilience. Engineered hardwood is also popular for those seeking a classic aesthetic with better stability than solid wood. Many homeowners are choosing these for their durability and style.

What is the cheapest but best flooring?

While 'cheapest' can be subjective, laminate flooring often presents a budget-friendly option that still offers good aesthetics. However, for long-term value in a humid environment, investing slightly more in waterproof vinyl plank might be wiser. Pros can help you find that sweet spot.
