A beginner’s guide to selecting appropriate flooring for your home

Choosing flooring is far more complicated than just finding the best-looking product. There are many materials to choose from, and each type has a range of options to go along with it. Factors such as moisture, durability, and costs, play a role in influencing your decision. However, how do you zero in on which flooring is right for you?

With years of experience on our side, we understand flooring like no one else and can recommend the best products that suit your requirements. To make picking new flooring a less daunting task, Just Floored Inc. has formulated a Beginner’s Guide to selecting appropriate flooring for your home. Through this guide, we aim to educate homeowners on floor coverings and their appropriate uses.

Getting Started: Do your research

Research thoroughly: If you have a type of flooring in mind, carry out some research about items of interest through appropriate manufacturers’ websites. Google search a local company’s reviews and of actual projects that have been completed.

Licensing: Find out if your local floor covering professionals are qualified, licensed, and to what degree! Flooring companies should have a proper contractor’s license, recommendations by professional organizations, and be associated with the professional organizations, like NWFA, NTCA, Better Business Bureau, etc.

Talk to references and ask your friends: Speak with references of companies and with friends who have been in a similar position to you. It is a great way to gauge a flooring company and products you have in mind.

Next Steps: How to get the best flooring for your home or office.

Hire a professional: A professional helps you to determine the right floor covering product for your home, that not just suits your requirements and budget, but also lasts for years. However, before you finalize one, speak with at least three local professionals so that you get a better understanding of what options you have available to you.


Make informed decisions: While choosing a product or professional, be diligent, wary, and smart! Think outside the box, and you’ll get a great result.

Advice From The Pros: Mistakes to avoid.

On your quest to make an informed choice for the best material for flooring, it’s sometimes easy to cut corners and pick an easy option over the right one. As experienced professionals, we urge you to take your time while coming to a decision and avoid these four mistakes.

1. Not researching enough about the company or product.

2. Relying solely on the recommendations of “friends” and the internet to formulate your opinions.

3. Falling for low costs deals that are “too good to be true.”

4. Paying too much attention to $!
