What affects the price

When you start looking at new floors, the final bill depends on a few specific things. The biggest factor is the type of material you pick—hardwood, tile, or luxury vinyl all have different price points. You also have to think about the size of the area, how much prep work the subfloor needs, and whether you are removing old flooring first. Complex patterns or tight corners can add labor hours, which shifts the total. We can help you break down the numbers, with exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?

The '1 3 rule' in flooring often refers to a guideline for how much you should account for waste during installation, typically around 10-15%. It's about ensuring you have enough material to account for cuts and tricky layouts. A pro can help you accurately estimate material needs for your Cary home.

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?

Both vinyl plank and laminate are popular choices in Cary for their durability and affordability compared to real hardwood. Vinyl plank often offers better water resistance, making it ideal for kitchens and bathrooms. Laminate can be a great option for living areas. We can discuss which suits your needs best.
