FAQs
Legacy Flooring
What type of flooring is best for my home?
The right flooring depends on your lifestyle and where it's being installed. LVP and LVT offer excellent durability and complete waterproof protection. Hardwood provides timeless beauty and increases your home's value. Carpet delivers warmth and comfort in bedrooms and living areas. Tile works best in bathrooms, kitchens, and other moisture-prone spaces. We'll help you choose the option that fits your needs and budget.How much does flooring cost per square foot?
This is often the first question we hear. It's important to understand whether you're looking at material-only pricing or fully installed costs, as there's a significant difference. We provide price ranges rather than exact figures because every project varies. We focus on your total project investment, not just the cost per square foot, to give you a complete picture.How long does installation take?
Setting clear timelines upfront prevents surprises later. Carpet installations typically take one day. LVP projects usually require one to three days. Hardwood installations generally take three to five days or more, depending on the scope. We'll provide a specific timeline once we assess your project.Do I need to move my furniture?
This is a common concern for homeowners. We'll clearly explain which items you'll need to move and what we can handle during installation. If you prefer not to move furniture yourself, we can discuss moving services as an option.Is this flooring waterproof or just water-resistant?
This distinction matters more than most people realize. Many customers confuse these terms, which can lead to problems down the road.

This question comes up frequently with families who have pets or children. We'll be straightforward with you—all flooring can scratch or dent to some degree. What matters is choosing materials that match your lifestyle and setting realistic expectations about durability. This honest conversation prevents warranty concerns in the future.Do I need new baseboards or can you reuse them?
We hear this question on nearly every project. You have three main options: reusing your existing baseboards, replacing them entirely, or adding shoe molding. Each choice affects both the final appearance and your project cost. We'll review these options with you during our consultation.What prep work is required before installation?
Proper preparation is where successful installations begin. We may need to address subfloor concerns, perform leveling work, or resolve moisture issues. Explaining these requirements upfront ensures your project stays on track and allows us to provide accurate pricing for any additional work needed.What warranty comes with the flooring and installation?
We understand you want peace of mind with your investment. Your flooring comes with both a product warranty from the manufacturer and a separate labor warranty for our installation work. We'll clearly outline what each warranty covers and what falls outside of coverage so there's no confusion.How do I care for and maintain my new floors?
