We do quality job to install hardwood,vinyl and laminate floor! We always do quality floor preparation and we have professional stuff to do it! we know how to do it better than others! check it out!
"Vitalii, owner of BFA Flooring, was personable and professional. After showing me the high and low points of the subfloor, Vitalii explained why it should be leveled, and how the process was done. He noticed the bathroom tile protruded into the bedroom and said they would cut the tile back, so the transition would be under the door. Vitalii also viewed the manufacturer’s instructions and installed it accordingly, in order to preserve the warranty. Vitalii and Mike did excellent work. They took care to protect my hallway floors, worked diligently and meticulously, and did a thorough clean-up afterward. The work was done in one day and the wood flooring and baseboards look amazing! I would definitely hire them again."

Unlike typical flooring companies or one-man operations, Footprints Floors isn’t focused on selling you products—we’re dedicated to providing outstanding customer service. Many other companies require you to buy flooring directly from them to use their installation services, limiting your options and potentially guiding you toward choices that may not suit your needs. At Footprints Floors, we install any flooring material you want, regardless of where you purchased it. This approach allows us to remain unbiased and genuinely focused on helping you choose the best solutions for your unique situation. We offer a comprehensive range of services including hardwood installation, wood floor refinishing, tile installations, backsplashes, bathroom remodels, carpet, sheet vinyl, exterior flooring, and more. Because we handle all types of flooring, we’ll never steer you away from refinishing an existing floor or combining different flooring types throughout your home. We have strong relationships with various reputable vendors such as Floor and Decor, ProSource, Shaw, Coretec, and others. This means we can assist you in sourcing materials at discounted prices, and we even offer pick-up and delivery directly to your home, further simplifying your project. Our commitment extends beyond just installation. My production manager visits your job site daily to ensure quality standards are consistently met. We’re dedicated to completing your project efficiently, showing up every day—including weekends—until the job is done to your satisfaction. In short, at Footprints Floors, we’re not just in the flooring business; we’re in the customer service business, dedicated to making your flooring project smooth and stress-free.

Rental sanders can address moderate surface damage, but their effectiveness depends on scratch depth and overall floor condition. Drum sanders offer the most aggressive removal capability for deeper imperfections. However, if the damage extends into the wood structure or affects large portions of the floor, board replacement by an expert might be necessary before sanding. Consult a flooring professional for help.
Always thoroughly review the manufacturer's operating instructions before starting. Wear appropriate safety gear, including goggles to protect your eyes and a respirator to prevent inhalation of dust. Inspect electrical components before each use to prevent shock hazards. Keep children and pets away from the work area, and maintain a clean space by frequently vacuuming dust accumulation to prevent slipping and to ensure you can see well.
Sandpaper requirements depend on floor size, condition, and the sanding approach. Plan to use multiple grit levels (coarse, medium, and fine) with at least one to two sheets per 100 square feet for each grit. Floors with significant damage or multiple finish layers will require more coarse-grit sheets. Purchase extra supplies before beginning because running out mid-project can cause visible inconsistencies in the final result.
