Flooring Questions, Answered
Real answers from Atlanta's family-owned flooring experts
How much does flooring installation cost in Atlanta?+
Flooring installation in Atlanta typically costs $3–$15 per square foot installed, depending on material. LVP runs $4–$8/sqft, engineered hardwood $7–$12/sqft, tile $8–$15/sqft, and carpet $3–$6/sqft. Hello Floors offers free in-home estimates so you get an exact price for your space.
How long does flooring installation take?+
Most residential flooring installations are completed in 1–3 days. LVP and laminate are fastest (often 1 day for an average home), tile takes the longest due to drying time for thinset and grout (2–4 days). Hardwood refinishing takes 3–5 days including cure time.
What's the difference between hardwood, engineered hardwood, and LVP?+
Solid hardwood is 100% wood and can be refinished multiple times but is sensitive to moisture. Engineered hardwood has a real wood top layer over a plywood base — more dimensionally stable, good for slab foundations. LVP (luxury vinyl plank) is waterproof, scratch-resistant, and looks like wood — ideal for kitchens, bathrooms, and basements.
Do you offer a warranty on installation?+
Yes. Hello Floors offers a lifetime warranty on materials and a workmanship warranty on all installations. Manufacturer warranties on the flooring itself vary by product line.
Can you install flooring over my existing floor?+
Sometimes. LVP and laminate can often float over existing hard surfaces. Tile, hardwood, and carpet typically require removing the existing flooring first. We'll evaluate during your free estimate.
Do I need to move my furniture?+
