Installing a hard wood flooring is not necessarily a complex process and in the hands of the right Portland area contactor can be quite simple and efficiently done. Once you decide on the kind of wood that you want for your flooring, decide if you want further designs or finishes to your floors. Wooden floorings these days aren't just plain and no frills -- they have borders, and come in a variety of finishes. For instance, you can choose to have a stunning medallion in the middle of the room or maybe a distressed finish or inlay that will add to the charm of the floor. Does your Portland area contractor have the right kind of experience for the job?
It goes without saying that your Portland, OR area hard wood flooring company must be licensed in your state and have all necessary certification documentation in order. The company should have a physical address, and should not operating out of a basement somewhere. The workers must be professional and uniformed, and arrive in company transportation. The company must have a physical address, and not a post box number. If there are going to be sub contractors working under the contractor they should be insured. The main contractor should be insured too. If he isn't insured and there is an accident involving the workers at your house, you could be held liable for the damage.
The contractor must be able to give you an estimated time of completion for the project. He must also give you a free and written estimate for your wooden flooring project. He should be able to give you an assessment of the project stages, and should be forthright about the different products he will use. He should offer warranties as applicable. Your Portland, Oregon area contractor must also inform you about dust containment procedures and clean up procedures he will undertake on your property.
We are moving into this home on May 21st - we would like to get an estimate on refinishing all floors in the upstairs. There are 4 bedrooms, 2 walk in closets, several small closets and a hallway - all about 775 sq ft There is currently carpet in all the areas except one bedroom which has a finished floor. I have pulled up the carpet and floors look good underneath. I would like to have the whole area refinished.
