How do I find the right flooring contractor?
When selecting a flooring contractor, it's crucial to prioritize experience over price. Quality flooring installation requires time and expertise. Lower prices often indicate rushed work, as contractors may be eager to move on to their next project. Remember, you typically get what you pay for in this industry. The cost should reflect both the contractor's skill level and credibility. Unlike purchasing a car, hiring a contractor doesn't mean you'll get the same result for a lower price. The art of flooring installation is honed through years of practice, application, and sometimes, learning from mistakes. It's advisable not to let your floor become a testing ground for an inexperienced contractor.Why does hiring an insured flooring contractor matter?
Flooring materials are expensive. And since a bad installation may not show signs of failure for several months, it's important to have an insured contractor because, by law, they are obligated to warrant their work and address problems concerning installation. Installation errors will also void manufacturer warranties, meaning liability for expenses related to fixing those issues falls on an insured contractor. According to Grand View Research, the U.S. wood flooring market size was 6.33 billion in 2024, which highlights the financial importance of protecting flooring investments through proper installation and insurance coverage. An uninsured contractor is not bound to care or repair. A contractor should provide contact information to his or her insurance agent to prove their insured status. Homeowners are liable for any injuries incurred by uninsured persons on their property. That's why Cummings Hardwood Floors Ltd, one of the trusted flooring contractors in Louisville, CO, is fully insured for all flooring work.Subflooring sounds somewhat mysterious and complicated – what do I really need to know about it?
Subfloor prep is one of the most critical aspects of installation, so at a minimum, it should be adequately cleaned before installation. Depending on the type of installation, flooring can fail if the subfloor isn't prepped correctly. This includes catastrophic glue failure and moisture problems that can swell the wood.
