What affects the price

The final amount for your new floors depends on a few specific things. First, it comes down to the material you choose, whether that is hardwood, luxury vinyl, or carpet. The size of the area being covered and how much prep work the subfloor needs will also play a role. If your rooms have complex layouts or lots of corners, that often adds labor time. Every home is unique, so we help you get an exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

If your existing wood floors have scratches, dull spots, or signs of heavy wear, refinishing is the solution. We sand down the top layer to remove surface damage and apply a fresh coat of stain or sealant to restore the natural beauty of the wood. This process is much more affordable than a full replacement and brings life back to older floors. You should look into this when the wood underneath is still in good shape but the surface has lost its luster.

For Minneapolis homeowners, the best value often balances durability with aesthetics. High-quality laminate or luxury vinyl plank (LVP) can provide a beautiful wood look at a more accessible price point and are resilient to our climate.

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?

The better choice between vinyl plank and laminate depends on your home's specific needs. Vinyl plank offers excellent water resistance, making it ideal for kitchens and basements, and it's very durable. Laminate can often provide a more authentic wood appearance and may be more budget-friendly. The experts can help you weigh these factors for your Minneapolis home.

What type of flooring is most popular now?

Currently, luxury vinyl plank (LVP) and engineered hardwood are highly popular. LVP's durability, water resistance, and wide array of realistic wood and stone looks make it a versatile choice for many homes. Engineered hardwood offers the beauty of real wood with improved stability in fluctuating humidity. The pros can discuss these trends and how they might suit your Minneapolis residence.
