For homes with pets, luxury vinyl plank (LVP) and porcelain tile are excellent choices. LVP offers exceptional scratch resistance, water resistance, and easy maintenance. Many quality brands now offer "pet-proof" warranties. Porcelain tile is virtually indestructible and very easy to clean. If you prefer hardwood, consider engineered hardwood with a high-quality finish or harder species like hickory or maple. We also recommend selecting textured finishes and lighter colors that better hide pet hair and minor scratches.

Yes, we offer furniture moving as part of our service. Our team will carefully move and replace your furniture, ensuring your belongings are protected during the installation process. For larger items or particularly heavy pieces, we may discuss special arrangements during the consultation phase. We recommend removing small items, fragile decorations, and electronics before we arrive. Our goal is to make the flooring installation process as convenient and stress-free as possible for you.

Maintenance varies by flooring type. Hardwood requires regular sweeping, occasional damp mopping with wood-specific cleaners, and refinishing every 5-10 years. Laminate and vinyl should be swept regularly and cleaned with manufacturer-recommended products, avoiding excess water. Tile floors need regular sweeping and mopping, with occasional deep cleaning of grout lines. For all flooring types, we recommend using furniture pads, area rugs in high-traffic zones, and prompt cleanup of spills. We provide detailed care instructions specific to your flooring material upon project completion.
