What type of flooring is best?
Each type of flooring has pros and cons:
Hardwood flooring costs more than other materials but is best for increasing home value.
Laminate and vinyl are easy to install and maintain but don't last as long as hardwood.
Tile flooring is best for bathrooms and kitchens because it's water resistant and long-lasting.
Carpet is comfortable and affordable but harder to keep clean.
Do you tip floor installers?
Floor installers, like most other contractors, do not typically expect a tip. Some may appreciate a tip if you feel they went above and beyond, but some installers who work for large retail companies are not allowed to accept tips.
Who installs flooring?

My house flooded and part of the main flooring buckled. Cid was able to start work right away. Great work! I'm happy with the outcome. Hi highly recommend Cid.
We had an outstanding experience with Alejandro and his team! Our project consisted of tiling and painting 3 bedrooms, 1 living room, a dining room, and 1 bathroom. From start to finish, the entire process was incredibly smooth, professional, and efficient. Alejandro’s attention to detail and commitment to our project was truly impressive, and it made all the difference. Everything we asked for was delivered exactly as we wanted, and even exceeded our expectations.
The promptness and dedication of the team ensured that the work was completed quickly without sacrificing quality. I know pricing can vary depending on the project, but I can assure you that Alejandro will work with you to meet your specific needs. We are beyond thrilled with the results and will absolutely be using GAMM Construction LLC for all future home projects. Highly recommend for any future project. Alejandro gets it done !
