When you buy your hardwood or Laminate Floor from a retailer, they usually suggest you use their sub-contractor-installers. And they generally quote a flat rate per square foot for installing. THEN, when the time comes to actually do the work, it occurs to them that there is furniture in your home...and appliances....and base molding that must be removed and re-installed. And, who has to load and haul away the old yukky carpet and pad? So the flat rate (say, $2 for Laminate and $3 for Hardwood, for instance) price gets added to the Additional Cost for handling Furniture, etc.. Then, when their Total Cost is given, it is substantially more that what you had anticipated.
Our flat rate price includes handling furniture, appliances, typical base molding, supplying and installing floor protectors on all furniture and then positioning your furniture safely back onto your new Floor! And we never add any labor charge for installing the necessary transition moldings at doorways. Serve you. It's what we do. Uncommon service is our specialty!
