Hear from Our Customers
Your floors face challenges most contractors never consider. Salt air that corrodes standard materials. Humidity that warps cheap installations. Temperature swings that crack inferior products.
You get flooring specifically chosen for coastal conditions. Materials that won’t deteriorate in Montauk’s environment. Installation techniques that account for our weather patterns.
The result? Floors that look great years later, not ones falling apart by next summer. No callbacks for warped planks or failed seals. Just solid, beautiful flooring that handles whatever the coast throws at it.
Jaguar Renovations has been serving Montauk and Suffolk County homeowners for nearly ten years. We understand what it takes to install flooring that survives coastal conditions.
Living here means dealing with salt air, storm damage, and strict building codes. We use materials specifically chosen for these challenges – not just what’s cheapest. Our experience shows in every installation, from proper moisture barriers to fasteners that won’t corrode.
Local homeowners trust us because we show up when promised, finish on schedule, and stand behind our work. No surprise bills. No corners cut. No wondering if the job was done right.
The process starts with an honest assessment of your space and needs. We measure accurately, check for moisture issues, and recommend materials that make sense for your home’s location and use.
Preparation matters here more than inland. We address any subfloor issues, install proper moisture barriers, and use fasteners designed for coastal conditions. Installation follows manufacturer specifications – not shortcuts that cause problems later.
Timeline depends on your project scope, but we build realistic schedules that account for Montauk’s weather. You’ll know exactly what to expect and when. Communication continues throughout the project, with updates on progress and any weather-related delays.

We handle everything from luxury vinyl plank flooring to hardwood floor refinishing. Vinyl options include waterproof planks perfect for Montauk’s humidity, wide-plank designs that make spaces feel larger, and realistic wood-look finishes that won’t warp like real hardwood near the coast.
Hardwood services include refinishing existing floors with dust-free sanding systems and applying finishes that resist moisture and salt air damage. We also install laminate flooring and epoxy floor coatings for basements and garages.
Every material is chosen specifically for coastal performance. That means marine-grade adhesives, moisture-resistant underlayments, and finishes formulated to handle temperature swings and humidity. The investment pays off in floors that maintain their appearance and structural integrity despite Montauk’s challenging environment.
Luxury vinyl plank flooring performs exceptionally well in coastal environments like Montauk. It’s completely waterproof, won’t warp from humidity changes, and resists salt air damage that affects traditional hardwood.
For those wanting real wood, engineered hardwood with marine-grade finishes works better than solid wood. The layered construction handles moisture better, and proper sealing protects against salt air corrosion.
Avoid materials like standard laminate or bamboo that aren’t designed for high-moisture environments. The key is choosing products specifically rated for coastal installation, not just standard residential use.
Most residential flooring projects take 2-5 days, depending on square footage and complexity. However, coastal weather affects timing more than inland locations.
High humidity or rain can delay installation of certain materials that need specific conditions to cure properly. Storm activity obviously stops work completely until conditions are safe.
We build realistic timelines that account for Montauk’s weather patterns and always communicate any delays immediately. Planning projects for shoulder seasons often works better for both scheduling and material performance.
Yes, most hardwood floors can be restored even after salt air or moisture damage, depending on the extent of the problem. Surface discoloration and minor warping often sand out completely.
Our dust-free sanding system removes damaged surface layers while containing all debris. We then apply marine-grade finishes specifically formulated for coastal conditions – not standard polyurethane that fails quickly near the ocean.
Severely cupped or buckled boards may need replacement, but often the majority of the floor can be saved. An assessment determines what’s salvageable and what needs replacement before starting work.
Absolutely. Waterproof vinyl plank flooring is ideal for Montauk basements that deal with humidity and potential flooding. These products install over concrete and handle moisture without damage.
For bathrooms, waterproof vinyl offers the look of tile or hardwood without grout lines that collect moisture and salt residue. Installation includes proper transitions and moisture barriers at all edges.
We also install epoxy floor coatings for basements and garages that need complete moisture protection. These seamless surfaces resist salt damage from vehicles and provide easy cleanup after storms.
Coastal-grade materials are specifically engineered for high-moisture, salt-air environments. Regular flooring often fails quickly in these conditions due to inadequate moisture barriers and standard adhesives.
Marine-grade adhesives won’t break down from humidity or salt exposure. Enhanced moisture barriers prevent subfloor damage. Fasteners are galvanized or stainless steel to prevent corrosion.
The upfront cost difference is minimal, but the performance difference is dramatic. Standard materials might need replacement in 3-5 years, while coastal-grade installations last decades with proper maintenance.
Prevention starts with proper installation using moisture barriers and sealed edges that prevent water intrusion. Waterproof materials obviously handle flooding better than traditional options.
For existing floors, we recommend keeping humidity levels stable and addressing any leaks immediately. Water that sits on floors – even waterproof ones – can eventually find seams and cause problems.
After storms, quick assessment and drying prevent long-term damage. We offer emergency services to evaluate flood damage and implement drying procedures that save floors when possible. The key is acting fast before mold or structural damage develops.
