Denver Flooring FAQ's

You can find us right in the heart of Denver! We are a local business, which means we live in the same neighborhoods as you. Think of us like your neighbors who just happen to be super experts on carpet and wood. When your parents are driving down the busy streets near the South Platte River or heading toward the big highways that take you to the mountains, we are easy to find. We love being part of this city because the people here are friendly, active, and love their homes.

We sell almost any kind of floor you can imagine! Here is a simple list:

• Carpet: The soft, squishy stuff that feels good on your toes when you wake up in the morning.
• Hardwood: Real wood planks that come from trees. They look very fancy and classic.
• Vinyl (LVT): This is a special material that can look like wood or stone, but it is waterproof. It’s like a superhero costume for your floor!
• Tile: Hard squares made of stone or ceramic. You usually see these in bathrooms or kitchens because water doesn't hurt them.

Yes, we do! Buying a floor is not like buying a rug at the store and rolling it out yourself. Installing a floor is big work. We have a team of strong, careful experts who come to your house. They remove the old, yucky floor and put down the shiny new one. They use special tools like saws and heavy rollers to make sure everything stays flat and doesn't wiggle when you walk on it. We promise to treat your home with respect, just like it was our own house.

This is a great question! Denver is special because of our weather. Do you know how your skin feels dry and itchy in the winter? That is because Denver has very "low humidity," which means there isn't much water in the air.

Real wood floors act like sponges. When the air is wet, they swell up. When the air is super dry—like it is here—the wood shrinks. If you pick the wrong kind of wood, your floor might get tiny cracks or gaps! We help your parents pick wood that is used to our dry mountain air so it stays looking perfect.

Living in Colorado means we get a lot of snow. When you come inside after building a snowman or skiing in the Rockies, your boots are wet and muddy. If that water sits on a carpet, it can get smelly. If it sits on real wood for too long, it can hurt the wood.

For entryways and mudrooms (the room where you take your shoes off), we often suggest Luxury Vinyl or Tile. These floors are tough. You can drip melting snow on them, and they won't get ruined. You just wipe it up with a towel, and it's good as new!

Denver style is very unique. We call it "Mountain Modern." Imagine a cabin in the woods, but cleaner and fancier.

• Gray and Blonde Woods: Dark wood used to be popular, but now many people in Denver like lighter colors. They look like driftwood you might find near a river.
• Texture: People here don't want floors that look too perfect or plastic. They like floors that have little bumps and grains, so it feels like real nature.
• Cozy Carpets: Because our winters can get chilly, families still love super soft carpets in the bedrooms to keep their feet warm.

Have you ever tried to sneak into the kitchen for a midnight snack, but the floor went SQUEAK and gave you away? That usually happens with wood floors. Remember how we talked about the dry air in Denver shrinking the wood? Sometimes, when the wood shrinks a tiny bit, the nails holding it down get loose. When you step on it, the wood rubs against the nail or the board next to it. It’s basically your floor complaining that it’s thirsty!

We love dogs! In fact, Denver has so many dogs that we have to think about them all the time. Big dogs have claws that can scratch soft wood. If you have a big Golden Retriever or a playful Lab, we might tell your parents to look at a floor that has a "high durability rating." This means the floor is super tough.

We have floors that are designed specifically so that dog claws won't leave marks. We even have carpets that are "stain resistant." That means if your puppy has an accident on the rug, it cleans up really easily without leaving a spot.

This is something special we offer because we want you to be happy. Imagine if you ordered a pepperoni pizza, but when it arrived, you realized you actually wanted cheese. You would be sad, right?

With floors, sometimes you pick a color in the store, but when it gets to your house, it looks different in your room's light. If that happens with us, and you have our Beautiful Guarantee, we will replace the floor for free (on select floors). We want you to love your floor as much as you love your favorite toy.

You are a great helper for asking! The best thing you can do is simple: take off your shoes.

When you walk outside, your shoes pick up tiny rocks and dirt. If you walk on the hardwood or vinyl with those shoes, the tiny rocks act like sandpaper and scratch the floor. If you walk on the carpet, the dirt gets stuck deep in the fuzzy fibers. Taking your shoes off at the door keeps the floor looking shiny and clean for a long, long time.
