Frequently asked in Orlando

What is the best flooring for the money in Orlando?

For great value in Orlando, consider engineered hardwood or high-quality laminate flooring. Engineered wood offers the authentic look of solid hardwood with better stability in our humid climate. Laminate can be a very cost-effective choice that still provides durability and a pleasing aesthetic. The pros can help you find the best balance of price and performance for your home's needs.

What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?

The '1-3 rule' often refers to the acclimation period for wood flooring. It suggests letting wood planks sit in the installation room for about 1 to 3 days before laying them. This allows the material to adjust to the local temperature and humidity, which is crucial in our humid climate. The installer will confirm the exact acclimation needs for your project.

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate in Orlando?

In Orlando, both vinyl plank and laminate are popular for their affordability and ease of maintenance. Vinyl plank offers excellent water resistance, making it a smart pick for kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms. Laminate can provide a very realistic wood appearance at a lower cost. The specialists can guide you on which material best suits the specific needs of each room in your home.

What type of flooring is most popular now?

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) and engineered hardwood are currently leading flooring trends. LVP's waterproof capabilities and realistic visuals are ideal for busy households, while engineered hardwood offers genuine wood beauty with enhanced stability. The pros can discuss these popular options and how they fit with current design styles for homes in our area.
