Expert Flooring Installers in Burlington, MA

Your floors set the tone for your entire home. In Burlington, where median home values approach $800,000 or more, the flooring you choose affects how your house looks, feels, and holds its value. Worn carpet, dull hardwood, or peeling vinyl makes even a well-maintained home feel dated.

Massachusetts climate is hard on floors. Winter brings sharp humidity drops when heating runs constantly, causing wood to contract. Summer humidity makes it expand. Salt and slush get tracked in from November through March. Flooring installed without accounting for these swings develops gaps, warping, or premature wear. We've seen it all over the years, and knowing what materials handle this climate is part of what makes our installations last.

Material choice matters more than most people realize. Solid hardwood remains the premium option at $15-25 per square foot installed. Oak, maple, and hickory are popular choices that hold up well and can be refinished multiple times over decades. Hardwood adds real value to your home. Studies show 70-80% ROI on hardwood flooring, and many buyers specifically look for homes with hardwood already in place.

Luxury vinyl plank has become a strong alternative. At $10-15 per square foot installed, LVP handles moisture, scratches, and heavy foot traffic better than wood. It works well in kitchens, bathrooms, basements, and entryways where hardwood would struggle. Modern LVP looks surprisingly realistic and stays stable through the humidity swings that cause wood to gap or cup.

Laminate offers a budget-friendly option at $8-12 per square foot. It looks good initially but cannot be refinished, and cheaper versions show wear within a decade. Tile remains the best choice for bathrooms and entryways, running $12-25 per square foot depending on the material. We help you match materials to how you actually use each room, rather than pushing the most expensive option everywhere.

Our process begins with an on-site visit. We look at your existing flooring, take exact measurements, and discuss what you want to accomplish. We assess everything visible, including accessible subfloor areas. Then we provide a written quote with line items so you know exactly where every dollar goes.

Here's how we handle the work. The price we quote covers everything we can see and assess beforehand. Sometimes old flooring hides damage that only becomes visible once we pull it up. Water damage, rot, insufficient subfloor structure. When that happens, we stop immediately and bring you to see what we found. We explain why it matters, present your options with clear pricing for each, and propose a change order. We only proceed with additional work if you give approval. This approach builds trust. We want clients for life, not one-time transactions where people feel blindsided by unexpected costs.

Most flooring projects in Burlington take 2-5 days once we start. A single room might finish in a day. Whole-house installations typically run 3-5 days. Hardwood that needs acclimation adds time before installation, usually 5-7 days in your home to adjust to humidity levels. We handle furniture moving, old flooring removal, and cleanup.

Every installation includes manufacturer warranties on materials plus our workmanship warranty on the installation itself. Most flooring failures trace to installation problems rather than material defects. Proper acclimation, correct underlayment, appropriate expansion gaps, and careful transitions determine whether your floors last 10 years or 30.

We've been in the construction industry for over 27 years under the same family ownership. We show up when scheduled, protect your home during the work, and clean up each day. That approach builds reputation in communities like Burlington where neighbors talk and referrals matter.
