Around here, this is the job
Coastal humidity moves wood. Sand eats cheap finishes. We talk honestly about LVP, tile, and where real hardwood still makes sense — and where it will cup by August.
How we do it
- 01
Measure the rooms, not a guess from a photo
We walk the space, check transitions, stairs, and what’s under the existing floor. Photos get you on the calendar. Measurements keep the material order right.
- 02
Pick a floor that matches how you live
Beach house, everyday family home, or a rental that turns over. Those are three different floors. We will not upsell you a finish you will hate in a year.
- 03
Prep is the job
Flatten, fix squeaks we can reach, set a vapor plan when the slab or crawl needs it. Pretty planks on a wavy subfloor still look wavy.
- 04
Install clean, leave it livable
We work room by room when we can so you are not camping. Baseboards, transitions, and undercut doors get finished — not left as a ‘you can caulk that.’
What this usually includes
- Luxury vinyl plank and similar resilient floors
- Tile floors (see also tile and showers)
- Room-by-room replacements
- Transitions, stairs, and door undercuts
- Tear-out and haul-away of the old floor
Questions we get
Can you match a floor through a few rooms?
Yes, and we should talk about where to hide seams and changes in level. Open kitchens and halls look best when the plan is one floor, not three leftovers.
What about water from the beach bag and the dog bowl?
That is why a lot of homes here go LVP or tile in the main living areas. We will tell you if a product is a bad idea for wet traffic.
