6 Questions to resolve Before Buying  New Floors By

1. Where is the room located, and how will it be used?

Ground-level and basement spaces are more susceptible to moisture than those upstairs, so consider the impact on your flooring choice. Also, if the room will serve as an entry area for your home or a play area for pets and kids, look for flooring that can handle wear. If the floor needs to support a wheelchair, walker or cane, make sure the flooring material will allow easy, unobstructed movement.

2. What is your climate?

Wood can warp and buckle, and carpet can mold in humid environments. Tile makes a great alternative, is easy to clean and maintain, and comes in a variety of textures, colors and sizes to suit your personal style.

3. What level of floor care is required?

Are you willing to make the new flooring’s maintenance schedule a part of your life? Ask what is involved in cleaning and upkeep, and factor things, like refinishing and steaming into your decision.


4. Does anyone in your home have allergies?

Hard surface like wood or Luxury Vinyl floors collects fewer dust mites and allergens. Add warmth and visual interest with easy-to-clean rugs.

5. Can you install new flooring yourself?

New flooring installation is more than lining up boards and tile. Determine whether or not you can identify and repair a faulty subfloor if you know how to safely dispose of the old flooring and or where to start (which area)your new floors. Some flooring may require professional removal.



6. Have you factored in additional costs?

Installing new flooring may also require you to replace existing trim and thresholds. Also, if you’re having flooring installed professionally, you’ll need to include this extra expense in your budget.


6. Can you refinish the existing floor?

Research your refinishing options. You may be able to bring your floors up to date with a new stain. AT J & J Flooring and carpet supplies we offer services like installing or sanding and staining wood floors.

J&J Flooring and carpet supplies Before 1. Waterproof When you’ve got people walking in and out with wet shoes or kids spilling their drinks, it’s important to have flooring that can take on its share of water. Luxury vinyl flooring is known for being made with 100% waterproof materials that are able to withstand water immersion and can be dried and reused without damage. This makes it the perfect flooring for bathrooms or damp locations like basements. 2. Resilient Luxury vinyl flooring provides a tough surface that can handle regular traffic and rough wear and tear.
