Frequently asked in New Orleans

What is the best flooring for the money?

For value, laminate or luxury vinyl plank (LVP) are often excellent choices. These materials can offer a convincing hardwood look at a more accessible price. The pros can detail their durability and style options for your New Orleans home. Get a free quote to compare.

What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?

The '1 3 rule' typically involves leaving a 1/3 inch expansion gap around the perimeter of floating floors. This allows the flooring to expand and contract with changes in humidity and temperature, which is critical in New Orleans. Pros ensure this is done properly.

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?

Vinyl plank (LVP) generally provides superior water resistance, making it a wise choice for kitchens and bathrooms in New Orleans' climate. Laminate is often more cost-effective and can achieve a very realistic wood appearance. Pros can help you decide.

What type of flooring is most popular now?

Hardwood flooring remains a consistent favorite, alongside realistic LVP. Homeowners love the natural beauty and warmth. For New Orleans homes, pros often suggest materials that can withstand high humidity and potential moisture.

What is the cheapest but best flooring?

Laminate and certain LVP options often provide the best combination of affordability and quality. They offer a wood-like aesthetic without the high cost. The pros can guide you to cost-effective solutions that look great.

How much does 1000 sq feet of flooring cost?

The cost for 1000 sq ft of flooring can vary significantly based on the hardwood species, installation complexity, and necessary subfloor preparation. Factors like site conditions in New Orleans and the removal of existing flooring will affect the final quote. Call for your free estimate.
