Choosing Hardwood Floor Installer Over Flooring Company
Posted March 2nd, 2010 byCategories: Home & Garden
The hardwood floor installer that I contacted last week is coming to put down the laminate floor that I bought from the home improvement store. I could not afford to have the guys from the home improvement store do it for me; they wanted double the installation charge that this guy is charging. I found my hardwood floor installer in the service directory of the paper and when he gave me three references from people that I knew, I called each one of them, who all gave him a great review.
I wish that I could have hired the professional flooring company that my sister and brother in law used when they built their new house but that would have actually cost me about triple the installation charge. I looked into them about a year ago and after getting their quote, I just completely thought that I would never be able to get new flooring in my house.
My sister was the one who suggested that I just forget about the flooring company and try hiring a handyman to install materials that I could get much cheaper from the big home improvement store in the next town. I was happy to get the price of the laminate flooring and then the installation cost, and learn that they were half of what the professional flooring company had originally wanted.
