What flooring in this region actually has to handle
Flooring in this part of Illinois deals with concrete slabs, road salt and older housing stock. Three things come up on nearly every estimate.
Basements and lower levels
Northern Illinois housing stock is full of finished lower levels sitting on concrete slabs. That is a moisture conversation before it is a flooring conversation — which is why we check the slab before recommending plank, tile or carpet down there.
Winters that punish entryways
Salt, slush and grit come through the front door from November onward. Entryways, mudrooms and commercial vestibules earn their tile here, and a good transition detail at the door is worth more than an extra dollar a square foot on the material.
Older homes with wood under the carpet
Plenty of area homes have original hardwood hidden under decades-old carpet. Before you budget for a new floor, it is worth pulling a corner up — refinishing what is already there is often the cheaper and better result.
Every service, region-wide
Whichever town you are in, the service list is the same.
