"We had a failed hardwood refinishing project on our hands when we called Prospect flooring. Mike was quick with the estimate, the price was competitive. Jodi called us every day to explain what will happen next day and was great to resolve few little things we encountered. We were so happy with the work performed, that we hired Prospect Flooring again for the second project at our house. Second project included installing engineered food in our basement and replace carpeted stairs with hardwood. Again, work was done with great quality. Prospect flooring worked around our schedule and completed work in 2 days."

Our philosophy is to provide you with exactly what was promised, using the highest standard, without the rush. Due to our current install schedule we are not currently offering repair work.
"I spoke to Rudy on 10 May 2025 with questions on correcting some squeaky floors in a couple areas on my 20-year old flooring. Rudy was EXTREMELY helpful in providing excellent advice. Even when I indicated I may not want the work done (due to my inability to vacate the house to allow for the odors to dissipate), he stayed on the phone call (on a Saturday) to suggest several ways to move forward with correcting the issue. I can't say enough of how polite and thorough he was to include providing me rough cost estimates for the work that would allow me to plan. I will definitely use this company if I move on with the projects based on Rudy's excellent customer service!"

Laminate flooring is made of multiple layers of synthetic material bonded together. The top layer is made from resin, which seals and protects the rest of the flooring from scratches and stains. The decorative layer features a print image of wood, stone, or ceramic, while the core is made from high-density fiberboard and resin to provide strength and structure. The bottom layer protects the core from moisture.
Carpet installs average $3.50 to $11 per square foot, while laminate runs $6 to $14. Carpet costs less up front, but laminate lasts longer, cuts down on maintenance, and delivers a stronger ROI. If you’re looking for durability and a resale bump, laminate often wins out despite the higher initial price.
AC ratings measure durability. An AC1 plank handles light foot traffic, while AC5 stands up to busy commercial spaces. The tougher the plank, the higher the price, an extra $1 to $3.50 per square foot. Choosing the right rating helps you balance budget and longevity.
You can lay laminate over most hard surfaces, but never over carpet. The soft pile doesn’t give the planks the solid, level base they need and can void the warranty. Instead, remove the carpet, check that the subfloor is flat, and roll out a firm underlayment before installation.
Laminate can add value when it replaces tired carpet, vinyl, or linoleum. A fresh, wood-look surface upgrades the room’s style without the cost of solid hardwood. Opt for high-quality planks with realistic patterns and good AC ratings to boost durability—and your home’s resale appeal.
