Many of our Floor Coverings International® locations have local warehouses or storefronts, but visits are usually by appointment only.
Most customers browse our products at an on-site consultation. We bring our entire flooring catalog to each appointment, so you can visualize how different materials and designs will look in your unique space.
Before scheduling a free consultation with our Design Associates, here are four design tips to kick-start your flooring selection process:
When you’re ready to delve deeper into these design considerations, our Design Associates will be there to expertly guide you towards finding a flooring product that perfectly matches your style and preferences.
There are two primary vinyl flooring installation methods. Most manufacturers use either vinyl floor adhesive or a float and glueless method. The method professionals use depends on the type of flooring you choose.
Yes! Underlayment smooths out imperfections in the subfloor, absorbs sound, and serves as an extra moisture barrier. In some cases, laminate planks and tile come with underlayment pre-attached.
Vinyl plank flooring is created in multiple layers that make it stronger, quieter, and more comfortable than sheet vinyl. It also includes a coating that resists scratching and staining, and backings that contract well in high foot traffic areas. Due to all these factors, plus moisture resistance, plank vinyl flooring is excellent for bathrooms and almost any area of the home. Its applications include:
Vinyl plank is made with 3D printing technology, similar to laminate flooring, to create a top layer that mimics high-end materials and costs a fraction of their price.
Solid wood and engineered hardwood are both exceptionally durable flooring options. Perhaps the biggest difference is refinishing: Solid hardwood floors can be refinished several times due to the depth of the wear layer, so it’s easily repaired if dented or deeply scraped. Engineered wood floors have a much shallower wear layer, though their thickness varies; some can be refinished a couple of times and others not at all.
Most carpets last 5-15 years, although the average lifespan of carpet varies based on several factors, including:
Carpeting is sold per square foot, typically from $1 to $6. Carpet padding is usually sold separately and may cost between $0.50 and $2 per square foot. During your in-home consultation, your Design Associate will provide a detailed estimate based on your choice of carpet, the square footage required, and carpet removal and installation costs, if applicable. It’s all a part of our customer-oriented process!
Hypoallergenic carpet is designed to reduce the presence of allergens in your home, protecting those with respiratory conditions like asthma or allergies. It uses materials like nylon and polyester that are resistant to mold, mildew, and dust.
Carpet made of materials with reduced volatile organic compounds (VOCs), which are commonly found in glues, fabrics, and other manufactured materials, are considered low VOC. Low VOC carpeting reduces off-gassing or the emission of chemicals. Many hypoallergenic carpets are also low VOC.
Laminate flooring is priced by the square foot and ranges from $0.60 to $5. Laminate flooring costs vary based on the quality of the material, manufacturer, and the square footage required.
Most laminate flooring is rated as water-resistant, which means it can handle spills and moisture for short periods. Exposure to standing water can result in warping or buckling. Some manufacturers make waterproof laminate tiles and planks best suited for bathrooms, kitchens, and high-moisture basements.
The cost of vinyl flooring and installation varies depending on the selected brand and design, the square footage, and the time needed to remove old flooring. Your local flooring team will provide a detailed estimate that includes material and labor so you know exactly what is included.
Tile is an excellent option if you want a one-of-a-kind design for any room. Floor Coverings International® can help you select and install tile on any surface, from floors to backsplashes.
The cost of tile flooring and installation varies depending on several factors, including the type of tile flooring, the square footage required, and the amount of labor needed to remove existing flooring. The biggest variable is the chosen material; the cost of floor tiles per square foot varies widely, but our Design Associates will provide a detailed cost estimate, so you know you’re getting great value!
The cost of solid or engineered wood flooring installation depends on material costs and the time required to remove existing flooring, prepare the area, install the wood flooring, and clean up the space. Installing hardwood floors is complex, but you can trust our experts to do the job right—and quickly! Our wood floor installation services set the industry standard for quality and attention to detail.
There are so many reasons that more and more homeowners choose hardwood flooring throughout their properties, such as enhanced home value, the timeless look, and the longevity of wood flooring. Wood floors create an appealing ambiance that’s natural, inviting, and universally appreciated.
There are many waterproof flooring options available from Floor Coverings International®.
Some flooring materials are naturally water resistant, such as luxury vinyl tile, vinyl flooring, ceramic tile, porcelain tile flooring and rubber flooring.
But that’s not all…
Additional water-resistant/repellant coatings may also be available for materials such as carpet and hardwood.
The materials-only cost of hardwood flooring depends on several factors, including the type of wood chosen, the square footage of the room, and the timeline.
Our distinctive design consultations simplify the flooring installation process through four straightforward steps. When you schedule a free meeting with one of our design associates, here’s what you can anticipate:
For an expanded selection of options, make sure to inquire with your design associate about obtaining pet-friendly floors for your home or office.
The market offers a wide array of flooring brands to choose from, and determining the best one ultimately depends on selecting the features that align with your specific requirements.
At Floor Coverings International®, we establish partnerships with renowned brands such as Shaw, Armstrong, and STAINMASTER® to ensure we provide you with the finest quality flooring materials for your installation project.
However, that’s not all…
If you already have a preferred brand in mind, we can accommodate your request by placing a special order for your installation project. We have the capability to order nearly any flooring material directly from the manufacturer.
Virtually every type of flooring material offers a high-quality version that can endure for a lifetime. Whether you’re considering tile, hardwood, or vinyl flooring, our Design Associates are available to assist you in discovering a product that aligns with your design objectives and durability needs.
Nevertheless, when it comes to commercial spaces, certain durable floors may prove more advantageous than others. For instance, durable carpet squares or luxury vinyl tiles may be considered “softer” compared to stone flooring, but they offer the advantage of being easier to replace, repair, or upgrade as needed.
Most laminated floors last 10 to 25 years, depending on the quality of the product and installation, foot traffic, and maintenance frequency. The best way to extend the lifespan of laminate flooring is to clean up minor spills immediately and sweep regularly.
