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 Winston-Salem

What is the 1 3 rule for flooring?

Which is better, vinyl plank or laminate?

Both vinyl plank and laminate are popular, cost-effective choices for Winston-Salem residents. Vinyl plank generally offers superior water resistance, making it ideal for kitchens and bathrooms, while laminate can mimic the look of hardwood very convincingly. The best choice depends on your specific room's needs and your aesthetic preferences.

What type of flooring is most popular now?

Currently, luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is incredibly popular due to its durability, water resistance, and realistic wood or stone looks. It's a fantastic option for many homes in Winston-Salem, handling spills and heavy foot traffic with ease. Engineered hardwood is also a strong contender for those seeking a more traditional, upscale appearance.
