Your floors take a beating every single day. Kids, pets, spills, furniture moves—it all adds up. But here’s what most Smithtown homeowners don’t realize: the right flooring project can return up to 70% of your investment when you sell.
We’re talking about floors that don’t just look good for a few months. We’re talking about hardwood that can last over 100 years with proper care. Luxury vinyl plank that’s completely waterproof and handles whatever your family throws at it. Laminate that gives you the wood look without the wood maintenance.
The difference isn’t just in the materials—it’s in the installation. When your subfloor is properly prepped and your floors are installed with precision, you get that solid feeling underfoot that buyers notice. No squeaks, no gaps, no settling issues down the road.
We’ve been handling flooring projects in Smithtown, NY and throughout Suffolk County for almost ten years now. That’s long enough to see what works and what doesn’t in these older Long Island homes.
Most of our work comes from referrals because we do what we say we’ll do. No hidden costs, no surprise charges, no pushy sales tactics. Just straight talk about what your floors need and what it’ll actually cost.
Suffolk County homes have their quirks—original hardwood from the 1950s that just needs refinishing, subfloors that need attention before new installation, moisture issues in basements that require waterproof solutions. We’ve handled it all, and we know how to get it right the first time.
First, we come out and actually look at what you’re working with. Not just measurements—we check your subfloor, test for moisture, identify any issues that need addressing before new flooring goes down.
Then we give you a real number. Not a range, not a “starting at” price. The actual cost for your specific project, including any prep work your floors need.
Installation day, we show up when we say we will. Our dust-free sanding system keeps the mess contained—every machine connects to a powerful vacuum so you’re not cleaning dust for weeks. We protect your furniture, cover your vents, and clean up completely before we leave.
Most projects wrap up in 1-3 days depending on size and complexity. Hardwood refinishing is usually ready to walk on the next day. New vinyl or laminate installation often happens in a single day for most rooms.

We handle the full spectrum of flooring in Smithtown, NY. Hardwood installation and refinishing, luxury vinyl plank, laminate, epoxy floors for garages and basements, even subfloor replacement when needed.
Here’s what sets Suffolk County apart: many homes built in the 1940s-60s have original hardwood that’s worth saving. We can refinish those floors to look brand new, often for less than replacement cost. For newer construction or areas where hardwood isn’t practical, luxury vinyl plank gives you the wood look with waterproof performance.
Smithtown homeowners are dealing with everything from beach house moisture to busy family traffic patterns. We match the flooring solution to your actual lifestyle—not just what looks good in a showroom. Pets? Kids? Entertaining? We factor all of it into our recommendations because the best floor is the one that works for how you actually live.
Most hardwood refinishing projects in Smithtown take 2-3 days from start to finish. Day one is sanding with our dust-free system—we remove the old finish and smooth out scratches and wear patterns. Day two is stain application if you’re changing colors, followed by the first coat of finish.
The final coat goes on day three, and you can walk on your floors that same evening. Full cure time is about a week, so we recommend waiting before moving heavy furniture back. The key is our modern equipment and finishes—older methods used to take much longer and create way more dust and fumes.
Luxury vinyl plank (LVP) is thicker, more durable, and looks significantly more realistic than traditional vinyl. Regular vinyl is typically a thin sheet, while LVP comes in individual planks with deep texture that actually feels like wood grain when you touch it.
The big advantage for Smithtown homeowners is that quality LVP is 100% waterproof—not just water-resistant. Spills, pet accidents, even flooding won’t damage it. It’s also much easier to replace individual planks if damage occurs, versus having to patch sheet vinyl. Most LVP has a click-lock installation system that doesn’t require glue, making it faster to install and easier to remove later if needed.
For most rooms, yes, but we can help coordinate this. Light furniture and personal items definitely need to be cleared out. For heavy pieces like dressers, entertainment centers, or dining room sets, we can often work around them or help move them to completed sections.
The key is planning this ahead of time. If you’re doing multiple rooms, we can often stage furniture in completed areas. For whole-house projects, many Smithtown homeowners rent a temporary storage unit for a week or two. We’ll walk through your specific situation during the initial consultation and give you a clear plan for what needs to happen when.
Most solid hardwood floors can be refinished multiple times—usually 3-5 times over their lifetime depending on the thickness of the wood. The test is simple: if you can see nail holes or the subfloor through worn areas, the wood is probably too thin. Otherwise, scratches, stains, and general wear can almost always be sanded out.
Engineered hardwood is trickier—it depends on the thickness of the top wood layer. Some can be lightly refinished once, others can’t be refinished at all. We can tell you definitively during a free consultation. Even floors that look pretty rough often clean up beautifully with proper sanding and refinishing. We’ve saved floors that homeowners thought needed complete replacement.
Long Island’s humidity and proximity to water means moisture management is crucial. For basements and areas prone to dampness, luxury vinyl plank or epoxy flooring are your best bets—both are completely waterproof and won’t be damaged by humidity changes.
Solid hardwood can work beautifully in main living areas, but it needs proper installation and climate control. Engineered hardwood is more stable in varying humidity. For kitchens and bathrooms, we typically recommend luxury vinyl or tile—materials that can handle spills and moisture without damage. The key is matching the flooring to the specific conditions in each area of your home, not using one solution everywhere.
Flooring costs vary widely based on materials and room size, but here are realistic ranges for Smithtown projects: Basic vinyl or laminate runs $3-6 per square foot installed. Mid-range luxury vinyl plank typically costs $5-8 per square foot. Solid hardwood installation ranges from $8-15 per square foot depending on wood species and complexity.
Refinishing existing hardwood usually costs $3-5 per square foot—often much less than replacement. The biggest variables are subfloor condition and any prep work needed. That’s why we always provide detailed written estimates after seeing your specific situation. Most Smithtown homeowners spend $3,000-8,000 for a typical living room and dining room combination, but every project is different.
