Common questions
What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?
The 1 3 rule isn't a standard flooring term. It might refer to expansion gaps. These gaps allow flooring to move with temperature and humidity changes. This is important in Virginia's varied climate. Too little gap can cause buckling.
Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?
Vinyl plank is generally more water-resistant than laminate. This makes it a great choice for humid areas in Virginia, like kitchens or bathrooms. Laminate can look like wood but is less forgiving with moisture. Both offer many styles.
What type of flooring is most popular now?
Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is very popular across Virginia. It mimics wood or stone but is highly durable and water-resistant. Hardwood is also a classic choice for Virginia homes. We see a lot of interest in natural looks.
What is the cheapest but best flooring?
Finding the cheapest that is also best is tricky. Vinyl plank often offers good value. It is durable and water-resistant for areas like Norfolk. Consider long-term cost, not just upfront price. We help you weigh options for your budget.
