A lot of people have made the mistake thinking they can save some money on their flooring project by doing the installation themselves. All too often they find themselves in a jam and realizing they have taken on more than they can handle. Enter the flooring contractor!
It is always a good idea to choose a flooring contractor even before you begin choosing the flooring that's right for you. Flooring professionals can help you make the right decisions in choosing your flooring materials, as well as the best decision for the various features of your home. With so many options from hardwood to ceramic tiles, you will want to take the time to really look at what works for you. Here are some things to consider:
• Subflooring. If you are choosing a heavy flooring material, the subflooring may need to be redone to accommodate it.
• The traffic in your home. How much traffic goes in and out of an area should be considered when choosing your flooring. A good flooring contractor can give you good ideas for this.
• The existing flooring. Some new flooring can be installed right down on top of it and sometimes it will need to be removed before new flooring can go down. Again, a flooring contractor will help you make the right decision.
• Your lifestyle. Do you have young children? Maybe an elderly person living with you? Or pets? All of these things should be taken into account when choosing the right floor for your home.
So, how do you know how to find the right flooring contractor? Here are some tips.
• Does the contractor have the proper skill level for the job? Ask to see his portfolio of other jobs when you meet with him.
• Does he have insurance? This would include workman's comp as well as liability. Ask about whether or not he employs other workers or sub-contractors. If there are sub-contractors involved, you will want to know who takes the final responsibility for the job done.
• If you speak with a salesperson, make sure that you also get to meet with the contractor or owner before the job begins. The key here is to know who is responsible and what the procedure is if you are unsatisfied for any reason.
Following these tips and suggestions will save you a lot of headache, as well as time and money on a job gone wrong. Flooring contractors know their stuff and can get the job done right the first time, so this is a time where you should always leave the job to the pros!
