What Type of Flooring is Best for Allergies?

May 2, 2017

With spring comes pollen, which for many folks, means allergies. Fortunately, there are many things you can do to help alleviate your allergy symptoms at home. These include:

Tips to alleviate allergies in the home

  • Regular cleaning – especially vacuuming carpets and rugs and washing bedding in hot water. Make sure your vacuum has a HEPA filter. Use unscented cleaning supplies as the fragrances can make allergies worse.
  • Take shoes off at the door – wearing shoes outside and then inside can track allergens into the home.
  • Take care when cleaning – Use a mask while cleaning or turn the job over to someone without allergies.
  • Use AC or purchase an air filter – Air-conditioning actually filters the air, so consider turning it on occasionally if allergies bother you.

Professionalism among flooring installers

January 31, 2017

Professionalism among flooring installers
Installing Laminate Flooring
Are all flooring installers equal? The short answer is “no”. There is a world of difference between a trained, reliable installer with the proper licensing and insurance and day laborers who lack the experience and training necessary to do a professional job. When you get a new floor installed, this distinction is important. But as the client, you should not be responsible for vetting the individuals who show up to install your floor. Unfortunately shoddy, fly by night companies that employ unqualified installers are not uncommon. That’s why recently there has been some conversation about the necessity to regulate the flooring installer industry.

Why pay more for porcelain tile vs. ceramic? 

January 23, 2017

Why pay more for porcelain tile vs. ceramic_Consumers should be aware of the difference between ceramic and porcelain tile.  Ceramic is less expensive for a reason.  It is fired at lower temperature than porcelain, which makes it less durable and less appropriate for high traffic areas of your home.  We don’t recommend ceramic for commercial floor use at all.

The Importance of Flooring Choice for Acoustics and Sound Insulation

January 1, 2017

The Importance of Flooring for Acoustics and Sound Insulation

If you’ve ever visited a concert hall or amphitheater, you’ve probably taken notice of the acoustics. The sound seems to be absorbed by the fixtures or construct of the building. This form of sound insulation, lessening the echo reflections of the sound, is done so that the listener only hears the sound from the source. Concert halls, amphitheaters, and recording studios use techniques such as dropped ceilings, acoustical tiles, and special wall coatings to enhance the listener’s experience. In recording studios you will also find the use of certain fabrics and floorings to dampen the echoing sound. These treatments are also found in office buildings where a large number of people are working in a common space. You could imagine if you have 100 people in a large room typing on the computer, shuffling papers, and talking on the telephone all at once how deafening the noise could get to be. Time spent in an office space accounts a large portion of our time, but what about the time spent at home?  Something as simple as flooring choice can greatly improve the acoustics of your home.

Milad was very helpful in helping us pick out a color selection that matched our cabinets. We wanted to move fast in... the selection and ordering process. There was a cancellation the same day that we visited the store and Milad asked if we'd like him to come out and measure after the store closed. That was fast service. The installer did an excellent and professional job. It's amazing that he can move all the furniture by himself. The floors look great and I would recommend The Floor Store to everyone.read more

We have used The Floor Store at Thornebrooke 3 separate times with redecorating a 20 year old house. We have gotten... tile and wood floors. Most recently we had the upstairs carpet removed and replaced with wood flooring. Milad did an excellent job matching our new wood with the wood that was already down. He was very time efficient with us and helpful. After he quoted a price for the same brand that was down on another part of the house, he found a matching wood floor that was $600 less expensive. We were very happy with that! The staff he used to put the new wood flooring down were on time, reliable, pleasant and did a great job. As soon as the flooring came in, they started working in our house and came when they said they would come. They were very time efficient. Mace was the lead person putting down the flooring and did a great job. We highly recommend The Floor Store at Thornebrooke.Anne Rottmann and Richard Hordread more

Since we do not really start the purchase and just check inventory and did a estimation in the property, so it is hard... to give a full review about the service. First of all, it is OK to purchase floor and service from here since they do carry some good brands and products, and service fee is pretty fair.read more

I highly recommend Milad, owner of The Floor Store in Thornebrook Village, for providing excellent service and quality... flooring to me. Milad was incredibly patient with me as I debated the possible choices ( all of which were beautiful, which made choosing one quite a challenge!), and he followed the installation closely and made sure I was satisfied with the result. Milad’s careful attention and concern made the whole experience of installation a very rewarding one. Thank you, Milad.read more

After shopping a few other flooring stores in Gainesville and being underwhelmed with the service and prices we visited... Milad at the Floor Store at Thronebrook. He was very helpful guiding us through the selection of our floors as well as the order, delivery and installation. We had a pretty big job replacing all the flooring in our new home and had already contracted a separate company to install the tile. Milad coordinated everything seamlessly, happily ordered replacements for a few cases of tile that were damaged and even delivered us a roll of protective paper for our move-in. The Floor Store also offered the most competitive pricing for the specific products we chose. We couldn't be happier. Many thanks to Milad and The Floor Store!read more

There is a reason for all these FIVE star reviews. After a brief bad experience with a big box store, I drove to the... Floor store where Steve immediately pointed me to the exact match for my wood floors, the flooring arrived in four days, and the floor was installed within the week. Amazing. Manny, the installer, is a real craftsman. It is nearly impossible to find this level of expertise anymore. The floors are gorgeous. Highly recommend. They certainly are going to be my first stop for my next floor or tile project.read more

Thanks to everyone at the Floor Store for their truly outstanding work installing several rooms of new wood flooring in... our house. They provided an excellent product that so nearly perfectly matched the existing wood flooring - only newer. Milad and Steve in the store, and Gary who installed the new flooring are all absolute top notch. The entire process was seamless and they worked superbly with our schedule. We could not be happier and will definitely use them again. We have already recommended them to our friend & neighbor.read more

We just had a new bedroom floor installed and are thrilled with the result. The quality of the material and the... outstanding workmanship on installation produced a result that exceeded our expectations. Their friendliness and professionalism was present at every step of the process; from our initial store visit with Steve, helping to find the flooring we wanted; to Milad's estimate visit where he reduced the quantity I originally estimated; to Gary's flawless installation. We will definitely be back for our future flooring needs!read more

Had a wonderful experience with getting a wood laminate floor installed in my small home office (about 144 square... feet). The owner, Milad, was extremely knowledgeable about all different types of flooring. The other flooring retailers that I checked out (one was Home Depot) did not have the breadth of knowledge, nor were they as competitive on pricing. We went in on a Saturday, picked out the flooring and even with a holiday (Memorial day) the next week, my flooring was delivered on Friday of that week (it had to sit for at least 48 hours in my home to acclimate the boards) and installation was on the next Monday. I was very impressed that Milad was able to accomodate our tight time-frame for the floor install. Milad and his employee were professional, courteous, and neat and did a fantastic job installing my beautiful new Kaindl brand wood laminate (CARB 2 compliant and GREENGAURD certified) flooring. I love it! Highly recommend.read more
