FAQs
Have questions about new flooring? You’re in the right place.
Whether you’re comparing flooring materials, planning a remodel, or preparing for installation, our frequently asked questions are here to help. We’ve answered many of the questions homeowners and business owners ask most often about flooring products, installation, maintenance, warranties, and more.
What types of flooring do you offer?
S & R Floors offers a wide selection of residential and commercial flooring, including hardwood, luxury vinyl plank (LVP), luxury vinyl tile (LVT), laminate, carpet, waterproof flooring, tile, area rugs, and commercial flooring products. We carry trusted brands and can help you find the right flooring for your style, budget, and lifestyle.
Which flooring option is best for my home?
The best flooring depends on your lifestyle, budget, and the room you’re renovating. Hardwood offers timeless beauty, luxury vinyl provides exceptional durability and water resistance, carpet adds comfort, while laminate offers an affordable hardwood look. During your consultation, we’ll help you compare options based on your needs.
Is waterproof flooring really waterproof?
Yes. Modern waterproof flooring is designed to prevent water from penetrating the surface, making it an excellent choice for kitchens, bathrooms, laundry rooms, entryways, and finished basements. Proper installation is essential to maximize its performance.
What flooring is best for homes with pets?
Luxury vinyl flooring is one of the best choices for pet owners because it resists scratches, accidents, moisture, and everyday wear. Certain stain-resistant carpets and durable laminate flooring are also excellent options for active households.
Do you offer eco-friendly flooring options?
Yes. We carry flooring products made with environmentally responsible materials, including hardwood sourced from sustainable forests, low-VOC flooring options, cork flooring, and products certified for indoor air quality.
How long does a new flooring installation take?
Most residential flooring installations can be completed within one to three days, depending on the size of the project, flooring type, and whether existing flooring needs to be removed.
Do I need to move my furniture before installation?
We recommend removing small personal belongings before installation. Depending on the project, our team may assist with larger furniture. We’ll discuss preparation details before your installation date.
Can new flooring be installed over existing floors?
In some cases, yes. Certain luxury vinyl and laminate flooring products can be installed over existing hard surface floors if the subfloor is level and in good condition. We’ll inspect your existing flooring to determine the best approach.
Will you remove and dispose of my old flooring?
Yes. We offer complete flooring removal and disposal services as part of many installation projects, making the process as convenient as possible.
Do you provide free flooring estimates?
Yes. S & R Floors offers free flooring estimates to help homeowners and business owners compare options and plan their projects with confidence.
What should I expect during the installation process?
Our team will prepare the work area, remove old flooring if needed, prepare the subfloor, install your new flooring, complete finishing details, and clean the workspace before reviewing the finished project with you.
