FAQs

Legacy Floorcovering

  • How long does flooring installation take?

    The duration of flooring installation can vary depending on the project's size and complexity. Each installation is unique, so timelines may differ.
  • Is LVT flooring waterproof?

    LVT flooring offers water resistance, but it's not completely waterproof. It provides protection against moisture, but prolonged exposure to water should be avoided.
  • Are carpets today stain resistant?

    Most modern carpets are designed with built-in stain resistance. This feature helps protect against common spills and makes maintenance easier.
  • What is the difference between solid & engineered hardwood?

    Solid hardwood is made from a single piece of wood, while engineered hardwood consists of 5-7 layers of wood. For planks wider than 5 inches, engineered hardwood is typically necessary.
  • What flooring is best for basements & bathrooms?

    LVT flooring is an excellent choice for basements and bathrooms. Its water and moisture-resistant properties make it well-suited for these areas that often encounter moisture.
  • Is vinyl (LVT) plank flooring better than laminate?

    Laminate flooring tends to be harder than LVT (vinyl), while LVT is often warmer underfoot. Both types offer water resistance, making the choice dependent on individual preferences and needs.
  • What type of flooring holds up best in high traffic areas or with pets?

    For high-traffic areas or homes with pets, we recommend stain-resistant carpets with pet warranties or LVT flooring with a thickness of 20 mil or higher for durability.
