Frequently asked in Houston

What is the best flooring for the money in Houston?

For value in Houston, consider engineered hardwood or luxury vinyl plank (LVP). Engineered wood holds up well to our humidity, while LVP offers excellent durability and water resistance for busy households. Both provide a great look at a reasonable price. A professional can guide your choice.

What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?

The '1 3 rule' for flooring suggests a directional layout where for every three feet of flooring, one foot runs in the same direction. This principle helps create a cohesive and expansive feel in a room. It’s a key aspect of visual design and professional installation. Proper alignment is crucial.

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?

In Houston's climate, vinyl plank flooring is often favored over laminate due to its superior water resistance, making it ideal for kitchens and bathrooms. Laminate can be less expensive but is prone to water damage. Vinyl plank offers greater resilience and longevity for our weather. A pro can advise.
