What affects the price

The final price for your flooring project depends on a few moving parts. First, the material itself—hardwood or luxury vinyl—will shift the total significantly. You also have to consider the square footage of the space and the current condition of your subfloor. Tack on factors like stairs, furniture moving, and the complexity of the layout, and you have your total. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.

About this service

The 'best' flooring is subjective because it depends entirely on how you live. For a high-traffic entryway, a durable tile or luxury vinyl might be the best option. For a formal living room, solid hardwood is often preferred for its elegance. We help you weigh the pros and cons of durability, maintenance, and comfort to decide what works for your specific household needs. We focus on matching the right material to your daily routine and budget.

Frequently asked in Atlanta

What is the best flooring for the money in Atlanta?

For value in Atlanta, consider durable options like luxury vinyl plank or laminate. These materials mimic the look of wood or tile but are often more budget-friendly and resilient to local conditions. A pro can walk you through which specific products offer the best long-term value for your home's specific needs and traffic.

What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?

The '1-3-1' rule for flooring is a common guideline where you spend about 1/3 of your budget on the flooring material itself. Another third goes towards installation costs, and the final third is reserved for underlayment, trim, and any unexpected issues. It's a way to budget realistically for a full project.

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?

Both vinyl plank (LVP) and laminate are popular for Atlanta homes. LVP is generally more water-resistant, making it great for kitchens and bathrooms. Laminate can offer a more authentic wood look at a lower price point, but it's less forgiving with moisture. Pros can help you decide based on your room's use.

What type of flooring is most popular now in Atlanta?

Currently, luxury vinyl plank (LVP) and engineered hardwood are leading trends in Atlanta. LVP's waterproof capabilities and realistic designs are a huge draw, especially with changing weather. Engineered hardwood offers the beauty of real wood with better stability in our climate. These pros stay updated on the latest styles.

What is the cheapest but best flooring?

Finding the cheapest *and* best can be a challenge, but options like quality laminate or certain vinyl planks offer excellent durability and aesthetics for the price. The 'best' depends on your priorities – water resistance, scratch-proofing, or a specific look. Call for advice tailored to your budget and needs.
