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.

We help you balance your budget with the longevity you need for your home.
Frequently asked in Reno
What is the best flooring for the money in Reno?
For Reno homeowners looking for value, luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is a fantastic option. It offers impressive durability, water resistance, and a wide range of styles that mimic natural materials, all at a competitive price. Laminate is another cost-effective choice, particularly for areas where scratch resistance is a priority. A local pro can guide you to the best fit for your home and budget.
Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?
The choice between vinyl plank (LVP) and laminate in Reno often comes down to your specific needs. LVP generally excels in water resistance, making it ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and basements, and it often feels more comfortable underfoot. Laminate tends to be more scratch-resistant and can be more budget-friendly initially. Consider the primary use of the room and potential moisture exposure when deciding.
What type of flooring is most popular now?
Across the country, including in Reno, luxury vinyl plank (LVP) continues to be a top flooring trend. Its ability to replicate the look of wood or stone with exceptional durability and water resistance makes it a go-to for many homeowners. Its low maintenance is also a huge plus for busy households. Many are also opting for updated carpet styles for bedrooms and living areas.
What is the cheapest but best flooring?
How much does 1000 sq feet of flooring cost?
The cost to install 1000 sq ft of flooring in Reno varies greatly depending on the material selected, such as hardwood, tile, carpet, or vinyl, and the complexity of the installation. Factors like the subfloor condition and any necessary prep work will also influence the final price. For an accurate cost, it's essential to get a personalized quote from a licensed flooring professional.
What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?
The '1-3 rule' in flooring typically refers to subfloor flatness requirements, meaning the subfloor should not deviate more than 1/8 inch over a 3-foot span. Adhering to this ensures your new floor is laid perfectly flat, preventing future issues like creaking, buckling, or visible imperfections. Licensed installers will always ensure your subfloor is properly prepared according to these standards.
