Money Saving Flooring Installation Secrets In Fort Collins Colorado

Everyone at one time or another gets tired of seeing their
old dirty carpets, the ugly carpet they got when they
purchased their home or plain old worn out floors from traffic, age or pets. At WOW Flooring
and Carpets of Fort Collins Colorado we see this all the time. Or perhaps you are ready for a
new look in your home and are looking for some helpful tips to save some money on your new
flooring project. 

 

Many times saving money can be as simple as hiring the right professional who knows how to
measure which minimizes wasted flooring materials.  Also knowing which products to select or
simply helping with the removal of your old flooring can save you a significant amount of money
on your flooring project.

 

 

When buying flooring usually the home owner pays for waste and the additional cost of that
waste has to be added to your project.  Not knowing how to measure your floors could end
up costing you a lot more money and be a waste of good flooring.  This is why a carpet
project measured by a professional or installer could be the smart way to go. In most cases
carpets come in 12 ft. wide widths and knowing the best layout for your carpet seams can
make a big difference in material used as well as the carpets overall appearance.  It's always
a good idea to keep some of the extra carpet scraps for accidents that can occur on the future.

 

Different prices on flooring materials

 

When selecting flooring, the different types of materials can be a major factor of the overall cost.
When selecting materials we recommend you take your time on selecting and choosing the best
value for your money. For example choosing a nylon carpet versus a polyester carpet can be
up to a 30% more expensive for the nylon carpet. Nylons have been known for better for
wear and polyesters better on stain resistant and a softer fiber to the touch. Over the years
technology on fiber has become better and so advanced that you can buy a polyester carpet
at a better price and warranty than a nylon carpet would have. Likewise you can find nylons
that feel even softer than polyester. Choosing the best value for your money with fiber as
your carpet of choice can be big savings to you.

 

Do it yourself flooring installation project

 

When purchasing your flooring a legitimate company should break down every cost for materials
and labor involved. There is some labor that you can do your self that can save you a lot of
money. Examples such as:  moving your own furniture, appliances, removing baseboards where
hardwood or tile are being installed or simply tearing out your old carpet and taking it to the
landfill are good ways to save you a great deal of money.  

 

 

It’s important to know that hiring a professional flooring installer, or flooring company to help you
with your project can save you time, frustration, and lots of cash in the long run. Just keep in mind
that you do not have to go it alone, and companies like WOW Flooring and Carpets in Fort
Collins Colorado will work with you to find the right “fit” for your home or business and your budget.
