You won’t necessarily save money by DIYing a flooring installation

 
That is such a big myth and, while you can do-it-yourself with some, there are also flooring materials that require special skills and tools to complete the installation.

It also begs the question: Do you just want to install the floor, or do you want it installed correctly? Some flooring requires special tools and skills that only experience can bring to complete the installation in a beautiful and precise manner.

You’ll also save money in the long-term. For one, professional installers often pay wholesale because that is their work, but you’ll pay retail. Another is that it could void the warranty; many manufacturers include specifications that must be followed or they will not cover any damages, even those not caused by the homeowner.

Other flooring facts

 
  • Create a realistic budget and determine alternatives where necessary. How much can you afford, including everything, not just product? If you are yearning for a certain look, say, wood, tile, or stone but your wallet says no, would you be willing to consider more affordable alternatives, such as luxury vinyl?
  • Explore your lifestyle. Do you have a large or small family? Pets? Do you entertain frequently? Are there any other needs for an extra-durable floor? What is your style, and will it fit in with the rest of your home decor and architecture?
  • In what room do you plan to install? If the room has direct sunlight, know that some materials can fade or change colors.
  • Create a realistic budget and determine alternatives where necessary. Be sure to let your floor expert know, so that he or she can give you tips for protecting your floors.
  • Speaking of do-it-yourself, if it is your priority, there are two materials that provide a DIY-friendly installation: laminate and vinyl (either traditional or luxury). Both are “floating” installations, which means that they can usually be installed over any existing flooring, even concrete as long as it’s completely dry. Both can either be glued down, or if there are pieces, such as planks, they just click and lock together.
 
This is one of the biggest, if not the biggest investment you’ll make in your home, so you want the installation done right the first time.
