FAQ

Flooring Installation in San Francisco: questions answered.

How much does flooring installation cost in San Francisco?

In San Francisco, flooring installation typically runs based on scope and materials. Pro House Maintenance gives every San Francisco homeowner a free, fixed-price written quote before any work begins, so there are no surprises.

How long does flooring installation take?

Most whole-room installations take one to two days once materials have acclimated to your home's humidity. Whole-home projects typically complete in three to five days. Hardwood and large-format tile take longer than LVP because of adhesive cure time or grout dry time between installation and grouting. We give you a firm day-by-day schedule before work begins.

Can new flooring be installed over existing flooring?

Sometimes, but we generally recommend removing old flooring first. Layering increases floor height at transitions and doorways and can conceal moisture problems that will eventually damage the new material. We assess subfloor condition and transition heights during the free measure and give you an honest recommendation (including whether removal is worth the extra cost) before scheduling installation.
