What flooring is best for homes with pets and children?

How long does new flooring typically last?
Lifespan varies by material. Hardwood can last 50+ years, tile 20–50 years, LVP 15–25 years, laminate 10–25 years, and carpet 8–15 years with proper care.
Can new flooring increase the value of my home?

Which flooring options are waterproof?
Tile, sheet vinyl, and many luxury vinyl plank products are waterproof, making them excellent choices for kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms.
How do I choose the right flooring color and style?
Consider your home’s décor, lighting, lifestyle, and maintenance preferences. Taking samples home can help you see how different options look in your space.
How long does flooring installation take?
Most projects can be completed in one to several days, depending on the size of the area, the type of flooring, and any subfloor preparation required.
Can new flooring be installed over existing floors?
In many cases, yes. Some flooring products can be installed over existing surfaces, but the condition of the current floor and subfloor must be evaluated first.
How do I care for and maintain my new floors?
Regular sweeping, vacuuming, and using manufacturer-recommended cleaning products will help keep your floors looking beautiful for years.
Should I replace all the flooring in my home at once?
