Frequently asked in Providence

What is the best flooring for the money in Providence?

What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?

The '1-3 rule' for flooring generally refers to the recommended expansion gap needed around the perimeter of wood or wood-based flooring installations. This gap, typically about 1/3 inch, allows the material to expand and contract with changes in humidity, preventing buckling or warping. This is crucial in varying New England weather conditions, and independent service providers ensure it's done right.

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?

Both vinyl plank and laminate are popular, affordable options for homes in Providence. Vinyl plank offers superior water resistance, making it ideal for kitchens and bathrooms. Laminate can provide a more authentic wood appearance. The best choice depends on the specific room's usage and moisture levels. Talk to a pro for personalized advice.

What type of flooring is most popular now?

Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) and engineered hardwood remain top choices for homeowners. LVP's water resistance and durability make it a practical option for many areas, while engineered hardwood offers the classic appeal of real wood with added stability. These choices are popular across many urban environments, including Providence.
