Choosing the Right Flooring

If you have been wanting to replace your worn, outdated flooring, wait no more! Get that project started today. There are many new products on the market made for different applications. In order to get your project started, there are a few steps that need to be taken.

1. Identify your budget

How much can you spend on your flooring project? After deciding on a number you need to determine where you will allocate your budget. If you have $5,000 to spend you must decide on how much of that should be allocated to material and how much to labor.

2. Determine what type of flooring is appropriate

There is a floor for every room. Most flooring has utility to it, but in some instances a type of flooring just isn’t appropriate. For instance, installing carpet in a kitchen or bathroom probably isn’t a great idea. Find something you like and make it work for you. There are so many different options available now that it’s best to do some research before coming to a decision.

3. Find an installer

If you’re in southern Maine there is no question that Fortin Construction is the way to go, but if you’re located elsewhere, go to a trusted online directory like yellowbook.com and find an installer near you.

These are a few simple steps to get your new floor on its way. If you’re still having trouble making a decision on which floor is appropriate for your home, stop by our showroom in Auburn and talk with a Fortin professional.
