Flooring is an important aspect of any home or commercial building. It not only adds aesthetic value but also provides safety and comfort to the inhabitants. However, many people make mistakes when it comes to flooring, especially when it comes to preparation and installation. At Shop Save & Floor, we understand the importance of getting the job done right the first time, and we want to educate our customers on the common mistakes made in flooring, and how to avoid them.

Skipping Floor Preparation

One of the most common mistakes made in flooring is a lack of proper preparation. This includes failing to properly level the subfloor, not removing old flooring, or not properly cleaning the surface before installation. These mistakes can lead to issues such as uneven floors, creaking and squeaking, and even mold growth. In fact, a study by the National Wood Flooring Association found that 80% of flooring problems are caused by improper installation or lack of preparation.

Not Making Sure Your Floors Are Leveled

Another mistake that is often made is not ensuring that the floor is level before installation. A level floor is essential for proper installation and longevity of the flooring. Uneven floors can cause issues such as buckling, warping, and even cracking. This can not only be unsightly but also a safety hazard. In a survey conducted by the National Wood Flooring Association, it was found that 40% of flooring complaints were related to uneven floors.

Choosing The Wrong Installation Team

Unfortunately, many flooring contractors are known to skip these important steps in order to cut costs and earn a larger margin. This is not only unethical but can also lead to costly repairs and replacements in the future. At Shop Save & Floor, we understand the importance of proper preparation and leveling, and we will never cut corners when it comes to your flooring.

In conclusion, flooring is an important aspect of any home or commercial building, but it is important to avoid common mistakes such as lack of proper preparation and not ensuring that the floor is level before installation.
