"My experience really could not have been better. Tyler worked with me on the selection of an ideal hardwood flooring for my home. Additionally, we did a hand-woven wool carpet on the stairs, and they re-tiled my fireplace. The selection process was educational with zero pressure. Josh and Albert were my installers for the hardwood and tile. They were thorough in everything they did, and worked with me on the nuances of certain areas. They were punctual, communicative, and respectful. Any construction process in your home is going to be stressful, but they made it easy, and they were a pleasure to have around. Arturo installed my carpet, which only took a few hours. He did a great job. These people care about what they're doing and are masters of their craft. I've already referred them to several people and will use them again."

"For the most part, I was happy with Mario's work. The reason for 4 instead of 5 stars was the oven was higher than the counter about a quarter inch while the back of the oven is flush with the counter. Before the kitchen floor was replaced with laminates, the entire oven was flush with the counter, and the reason was the laminate was installed under the front legs of the oven where the floor was bare before that caused the oven front to be elevated."

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.
