When it comes to a successful and efficient hardwood installation, preparation is essential. You'll need to first remove all furniture from the room and empty any closets. You'll then need to address your old flooring. Contact us for more information on flooring removal and disposal. Once the room is ready, we'll make sure your subfloor is flat and smooth. A member of your household who is at least 18 or older should be available to greet the installation crew and show them to the work area. For everyone's safety, keep children and pets away from the work area until the job is done.

Congratulations on your new carpet from Neil's Floor Covering! We're sure you're eagerly awaiting its installation. This quick guide will help prepare you for installation day and will help you know exactly what to expect. When it comes to a successful and efficient carpet installation, preparation is essential. All furniture must be moved out of the room where your new carpet is to be installed. If you have heavy items that require special care, it's a good idea to hire professional movers and storage experts.

While some floating vinyl installations are easy enough for most DIYers to handle, it is still recommended that you trust professional installers with the job. Our flooring specialists at Neil's Floor Covering are efficient and experienced when it comes to all types of vinyl installations. Depending on the type of vinyl you have selected for installation, the process will vary in duration. The two types of installation methods for vinyl are lock and click floating or glue-down. Floating, lock and click vinyl systems are easier to install over most any type of subfloor, but glue-down materials involve ensuring the proper subfloor is in place, the recommended adhesive is used and the correct transitions are installed where applicable.

Remove furniture from the installation area and make sure that closet floors are cleared out. Trim molding and baseboard must be removed before laminate is installed. This can be a bit tricky, and it is not uncommon to have to patch and repaint them before reinstalling it after installation. If doing the tear out and disposal yourself, plan ahead about how you will dispose it. This can be time-consuming, so contact us about the best method and related costs. If you plan to remove your current flooring yourself, allow enough time for clean-up and floor preparation prior to your installation date.

Start by placing door mats outside and inside all entrances to help absorb soil, moisture, excessive dirt, sand, grit, oil, asphalt, or driveway sealer that might otherwise be tracked into the home. Clean mats and all area rugs regularly so they don't become soil sources themselves. No matter how careful you are, your carpet will likely fall victim to a spill or mess of some sort-especially if you have children or pets. If this happens, don't panic! Many of our carpets are sold with stain-resistant technology built right into their fibers, making it easy to clean common household messes.

For daily upkeep, sweep, damp mop, or use a manufacturer-approved vacuum cleaner without a beater bar. Place all heavy furniture on protective mats or pads to avoid scratching your flooring. Place doormats or area rugs throughout your home so you and your guests can also avoid tracking abrasives across your new flooring such as outdoor dirt, soil and debris. Vinyl flooring is waterproof, but it is still important to wipe up spills and messes as quickly as possible. Wipe away liquid spills and other common messes with a clean cloth but refer to your manufacturer's guidelines for taking care of tougher messes such as wax or nail polish.

Start by having guests and family members remove shoes before walking across your rug. This will minimize the amount of abrasive dirt and debris dragged across your flooring and rugs, which is important because dirt particles can also damage rug fibers over time. Place carpet protectors under all furniture legs, limit exposure to direct sunlight, and take caution when relocating furniture. Vacuum your rug a couple of times a week with a manufacturer-approved appliance. Twice a week should be sufficient, especially if your rug is in an area with light to medium traffic.

Our tile can help elevate the overall look of your home to a whole new level. First, though, you will want to trust our flooring experts with your tile installation! Tile installation can be very difficult for casual DIYers, so it is best to leave it to the professionals! Remember to discuss questions and expectations with your tile professional at the time of your in-home measure to help ensure everything is prepared for the big day. The removal and disposal of old flooring and trim, sub-floor preparation, and door clearance can also be addressed during the measure.

While tile is extremely easy to clean and maintain, it's important to know which cleaning products to use as well as which can damage grout or dull your tile's surface. While tile is extremely durable, it's not impervious. Proper care and maintenance are still needed to prolong the life of your flooring. Establish a routine that includes sweeping, dusting, and vacuuming. You'll also want to wet mop and address spills properly. You may consider investing in doormats to keep dirt off your flooring, and you could use area rugs to further protect your flooring.
