How to prepare for the flooring estimate?

We did thousands of estimates. And sometimes when we come to properties people are not prepared. Here are some advices on how to prepare for the estimate:

  1. Be at the property. It's very important that you are present at the property at a scheduled date and time. Unless you have another agreement with an estimator.
  2. Inform other people about the estimate. Make sure that all your family members or people located at the property are aware that the estimator is coming.
  3. Decide on installation area in advance. Discuss this question with family members, roommates or friends ahead of time. So when the estimator comes you can explain to him what areas to measure.
  4. Make measurement areas accessible. Make sure that all doors are open and rooms have space for an estimator to take measurements. And there are no other entering restrictions.
  5. Make your due diligence in advance. If you live in a condo - ask your property manager about any requirement or limitations. Ask neighbors about their flooring replacement experience.
  6. Visit our showroom. Most of the times it's better to first visit our flooring showroom before scheduling a flooring estimate to check available materials and get answers for your questions.

How long does the flooring estimate take?

Most estimates take 15-30 minutes from the start to the end. In some cases this time can be significantly longer if the property has abnormal shape and/or over 1500 square feet. Also, the more questions you ask the installer, the longer the flooring estimate will take. That is why we recommend to visit our flooring showroom prior to booking a flooring estimate, as a flooring expert in showroom is not limited in time. Flooring estimator is limited in time due to the next flooring estimate appointment.

Upon completion of estimation you may choose flooring and baseboards that you want to be included in the quote. Estimator will show you flooring and baseboards samples. Unfortunately, our estimator can't bring all flooring options that we have because samples are bulky and heavy. That is why we always recommend to visit our flooring showroom before scheduling flooring estimate. In our showroom you will be able to see all available flooring options.
