There is nothing worse then seeing your new renovation project go bad after a year because you didn’t take good advice at hand. Your renovation or Improvement is something that you never wish to just throw money away on all the time so doing some research will help in making you and the rest of your family more happier in the better things in life.
First thing is you wish to do is know the sq/ft of the area to have the hardwood flooring or laminate installed. Knowing the colors you like is a big plus in the market. Contractors get great deals at certain times of the year, also it makes it much easier when trying to get an online quote.
If your just installing hardwood flooring on the main floor of your home that has a wood sub-floor or is there other flooring that will have to be removed. Should you use Solid Hardwood or Engineered Hardwood or Laminate! It makes a difference in the renovation and it makes a big difference in Price.
Installing Solid Hardwood in Basements is not recommended stay with Engineered or Laminate Flooring. When installing you not only need an underlay you need a sub-floor called dry-core. If you install any of these products without it you will notice in a year that it will buckle up or start cupping!
In Fact when ever doing a Basement Renovation you should always start from the floor up! Start with a sub-floor! Then you can install Laminate or Engineered hardwood with no Problems. It will Last and you will get your monies worth! Any Home renovation company that installs Laminate or hardwood with just an underlay doesn’t no anything about the products they are putting in.
Yes it does cost more with the sub-floor but do you really wish to waste your money. Take the good advice from an expert! That cares for your home as much as you do. I like redoing other peoples work but I charge good money for it.
After installing a good sub-floor you should use a waterproof underlay with all seams tuck-taped then it does not matter if you install Engineered or Laminate flooring.
