What We Demand in Quality Flooring Materials

1. Durability and Longevity Durability is a top priority when selecting flooring materials. The last thing we want is for a floor to show signs of wear and tear within a short period of time. Whether it’s hardwood, tile, vinyl, or laminate, our company demands flooring that can withstand foot traffic, furniture, and the occasional spill or scratch.


Hardwood: We work with our clients to choose hardwoods that are dense and resilient, such as oak, maple, and hickory. These woods offer a robust surface that ages gracefully, even with heavy use.

Tile: For tile, we ensure it is not only attractive but resistant to chipping, cracking, and staining. Porcelain and ceramic tiles with high PEI (Porcelain Enamel Institute) ratings are our go-to choices for areas with higher foot traffic or moisture.

Vinyl and Laminate: With these materials, we look for high-quality construction, such as thick wear layers and strong, moisture-resistant cores, ensuring a long-lasting finish even in challenging environments like kitchens and bathrooms.

2. Aesthetic Appeal We understand that the visual appeal of flooring is just as important as its functionality. The right material should complement the design of the space, enhance the room’s atmosphere, and fit with the client’s style. We work with flooring options that offer a variety of colors, textures, and finishes, ensuring that every client’s unique vision is brought to life.


Wood Flooring: Our hardwood preference ranges from natural finishes that showcase the wood’s natural grain to modern stains that fit with contemporary aesthetics. Whether it's a rustic look or sleek, polished wood, we work with your needs to find flooring that aligns with diverse tastes.

Tile & Stone: From classic marble and slate to trendy mosaic tiles, we provide flooring that suits both traditional and modern designs. We ensure that all tiles are precisely cut and that the flooring installed carefully to achieve a seamless look.

Vinyl and Laminate: Advances in vinyl and laminate technology allow for designs that mimic natural materials like hardwood, stone, or even concrete. These are often more affordable options without compromising on style.

3. Environmental Impact Greensboro Flooring Installation is committed to sustainability. We are careful in selecting flooring materials that are sourced responsibly and contribute to a healthier environment. We prioritize materials that are renewable, recyclable, and made with low-impact production processes.

Safety and Health 

The safety and health of our clients are paramount. Low-VOC (volatile organic compound) materials, which contribute to indoor air pollution and can cause health problems, are a major concern for us. We ensure that the flooring materials we install meet strict health standards, contributing to better indoor air quality.


Non-toxic Finishes: We carefully select flooring that is free from harmful chemicals, including formaldehyde and phthalates, ensuring a safe environment for families and pets.

Slip Resistance: For areas prone to wet conditions, such as bathrooms and kitchens, we prioritize slip-resistant flooring to reduce the risk of accidents.

5. Ease of Maintenance Flooring should not only be beautiful but also easy to maintain. We seek materials that are simple to clean and maintain without requiring excessive upkeep or costly maintenance.


Water-resistant and Scratch-resistant Materials: Especially in high-traffic or moisture-prone areas, we choose materials that resist water and stains. For instance, our selection of water-resistant vinyl or moisture-resistant tile is perfect for bathrooms, kitchens, and basements.

Easy-to-Clean Surfaces: Whether it’s a sealed hardwood floor that only needs occasional sweeping and mopping, or a smooth tile surface that resists grime and dirt, we ensure that every flooring option we install is practical for daily use.


What We Reject as Subpar Flooring

1. Poor Durability and Weak Construction We reject flooring materials that show signs of poor construction or fragility. Thin vinyl, weak laminate, and soft hardwoods that cannot withstand everyday wear and tear don’t meet our standards. Floors that scratch easily, discolor over time, or show signs of warping quickly after installation are not acceptable.


2. Toxic Chemicals and Low-Quality Finishes Any flooring material that contains high levels of toxic chemicals or finishes that emit harmful fumes is a no-go. We avoid materials with high levels of VOCs, formaldehyde, or other toxic substances, as they pose a risk to our clients’ health and well-being.


3. Poor Aesthetic Appeal While everyone has different tastes, we reject flooring materials that are poorly finished, have inconsistent colors, or show defects that will affect the overall aesthetic of the space. For example, vinyl or laminate with visible seams, uneven textures, or color irregularities can detract from the desired look of a room.


4. Unsustainable and Non-Eco-Friendly Materials We avoid flooring materials that come from unsustainable sources or have a significant environmental impact. Materials that are harmful to ecosystems or involve heavy chemical treatments that are difficult to recycle do not align with our values.


5. High Maintenance or Difficult to Repair Materials Floors that require frequent repairs or specialized cleaning methods are not our first choice. If a floor cannot stand up to daily use without constant attention or if it requires expensive and complicated restoration techniques, we consider these materials subpar.
