Material guide
Every floor we sell, and where each one fails.
We supply the material and install it, so we have no reason to talk you into the wrong one. Real installed prices, the specifications that actually decide how long a floor lasts, and a straight answer on which rooms each material has no business being in.
Waterproof Luxury Vinyl Plank
The default floor for Houston-area homes — waterproof, dimensionally stable on slab, and forgiving of humidity.
$5–$9/sq ft installedLaminate Flooring
The budget hard-surface option — realistic wood look, hard-wearing top layer, but a fibreboard core that hates water.
$4–$7/sq ft installedEngineered Hardwood
Real wood veneer over a dimensionally stable plywood core — the way to get a genuine wood floor onto a Houston slab.
$9–$16/sq ft installedSolid Hardwood
One piece of wood, sandable for generations — right for pier-and-beam homes, wrong for most slabs in this region.
$10–$18/sq ft installedPorcelain & Ceramic Tile
The most durable and genuinely waterproof-capable floor available — and the one where installation quality shows most.
$10–$20/sq ft installedNatural Stone
Travertine, marble, slate, and limestone — genuinely unique material that asks for maintenance in return.
$14–$28/sq ft installedCarpet & Pad
Still the right answer in bedrooms, media rooms, and rental turns — where warmth, quiet, and cost per foot matter most.
$3.5–$7/sq ft installed
Prices are Houston-market ranges for material and installation together, including delivery, tear-out, and standard prep. The figure for your house is confirmed in writing at a free in-home measure — we don’t quote flooring over the phone, because nobody can see your slab from there.
How buying through us works
We bring the samples to your house.
You choose the floor in your own light, next to your own cabinets and trim — which is a better way to pick one than a showroom, and it means you aren’t paying for the showroom either.

We install it — and own the result
Same company, start to finish. If something needs sorting out, there's no supplier to blame and one number to call.
