Flooring Options Installed Across the Metro

Abner Flooring and Remodeling installs hardwood, LVP, tile, laminate, and epoxy flooring throughout the Greater Atlanta metro, including areas like Lawrenceville, Dunwoody, and Sandy Springs. If you're searching for flooring installation in Gainesville, GA or anywhere in the surrounding region, this crew handles it. One call to (404) 706-8999 puts a real installer on the job, not a subcontractor, not a scheduler.

The right flooring choice depends on the room, the subfloor condition, your household traffic, and your budget. Solid hardwood behaves differently than engineered in a humid Georgia basement. LVP handles moisture where hardwood can't. Laminate makes sense in rentals and high-traffic spaces where you want durability without the refinish cost. Getting those decisions right before anyone touches the floor saves you from replacing it in three years. Abner measures, preps the subfloor, accounts for those variables, and installs. Cost drivers include square footage, existing floor removal, subfloor repairs needed, and material grade. Every job is different, contact Abner Flooring and Remodeling for an accurate estimate.

What We Install

Every Flooring Type, One Crew

You shouldn't need five different contractors to finish one house.

01

Hardwood Flooring

Solid and engineered hardwood installation, including nail-down, glue-down, and floating methods. We sand and finish on-site for a seamless result that matches your trim and stair nosings.

02

LVP Flooring

Luxury vinyl plank goes in fast, handles moisture, and holds up under kids and pets. It's the right call for kitchens, basements, and rental properties where hardwood isn't practical.

03

Tile Flooring

Ceramic and porcelain tile installed with proper layout, thin-set, and grout selection. We handle tile flooring in bathrooms, mudrooms, and anywhere you need a surface that won't budge.

04

Laminate Floor Installation

A solid option when the budget matters more than refinishability. We install laminate flooring with proper underlayment and expansion gaps, the details most quick-install crews skip.

05

Epoxy Floor Coating

Garage floors, utility spaces, and concrete slabs coated with epoxy for a hardwearing, cleanable finish. This is the most underrated upgrade in residential flooring, and almost no flooring-only shops touch it.

06

Floor Refinishing

If the floor is structurally sound, don't rip it out. We refinish existing hardwood by sanding back to bare wood and applying a fresh finish coat, fraction of the replacement cost.

Our Process

How the Installation Process Works

Three stages, no surprises.

  1. 01

    Assess and Prep

    We check the subfloor for levelness, moisture, and structural issues before a single plank goes down. Skipping this step is why floors buckle and squeak six months after install.

  2. 02

    Install the Material

    We acclimate the material to your space, lay it with the right method for the product type, and cut precisely around transitions, vents, and doorways. No gaps, no shortcuts.

  3. 03

    Trim, Finish, and Clean Up

    Baseboards, transitions, and stair nosings get installed as part of the job. We don't hand you a finished floor and a pile of trim to deal with on your own.

Full-Service Advantage

Flooring Plus Everything Around It

  1. 01

    Baseboard and Trim

    New baseboard installation that matches your floor height and profile. We don't leave raw edges at the wall.

  2. 02

    Drywall and Paint

    If the renovation opened up a wall or the trim removal left damage, we handle drywall repair and interior painting in the same project.

  3. 03

    Stairs and Transitions

    Stair treads, nosings, and threshold transitions between rooms and flooring types. The details that make a floor installation look finished instead of assembled.

Which Flooring Material Fits Your Home?

Is hardwood or LVP better for a Georgia home?
Depends on where it's going. Solid hardwood expands and contracts with humidity, which is real in Georgia summers. In a conditioned main floor space, it's excellent. In a basement or bathroom, LVP is the correct choice. Engineered hardwood splits the difference and handles moisture better than solid while still looking like real wood.
Does the existing floor need to come out before new flooring goes in?
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Floating LVP can go over certain existing surfaces if the subfloor is level and the height transition works. Nail-down hardwood almost always requires bare subfloor. We check on the estimate visit and tell you straight whether removal is necessary.
What is the best type of flooring for high-traffic areas?
LVP with a thick wear layer (12 mil or above) holds up the best in hallways, kitchens, and entry areas. Hardwood is durable but dents under heavy use. Tile is nearly indestructible but cold underfoot. Laminate is a middle ground. The right answer depends on your specific traffic pattern and subfloor.
Can you mop LVP and vinyl flooring?
Yes, with a damp mop, not a soaking-wet one. Standing water that sits in seams over time can work under the planks and cause the locking system to loosen. Damp mopping and wiping spills promptly keeps LVP looking new for years. We always explain care instructions before we leave a job.
How long does a flooring installation take?
A standard living room or bedroom (200 to 400 sq ft) typically takes one to two days once materials are acclimated. Larger projects, multi-room installs, or jobs that include subfloor repairs take longer. We give you a realistic timeline on the estimate, not the fastest number to win the bid.
Do you handle subfloor repairs if there are soft spots or squeaks?
Yes, and we flag them before they become your problem. Soft spots, moisture damage, and high spots in the subfloor all affect how long the finished floor lasts. A flooring crew that installs over a bad subfloor isn't doing you any favors. We fix what needs fixing first.
What's the best type of flooring to get for a Georgia home?
Hardwood remains the most sought-after finish in older Atlanta-area homes, particularly in neighborhoods with craftsman bungalows where the original wood is worth restoring rather than replacing. For modern builds and renovation projects, LVP has become the practical go-to: it handles Georgia humidity, installs fast, and costs less than solid hardwood. Tile wins in wet rooms. Honestly, the material choice should follow the room's conditions, not a trend.
How much does flooring installation cost for 1,000 square feet?
Material and labor costs vary significantly based on what you're installing. LVP sits at a different price point than solid hardwood; tile requires more labor than a floating floor. Subfloor prep, removal of existing flooring, and stair work all add to the total. Every job is different, contact Abner Flooring and Remodeling for an accurate estimate specific to your space.
Do I need to move furniture before the crew arrives?
The floor needs to be clear before installation starts. Large furniture should be moved out of the rooms being done. We can advise on staging during the estimate visit. Appliances in kitchens and laundry rooms require disconnection before we work around them. We'll let you know what needs to happen on your end ahead of time.
What happens if the subfloor has damage or moisture issues?
We assess the subfloor before any material goes down. Soft spots, rot, high spots, and moisture intrusion all affect how long a finished floor lasts. We repair what we find rather than covering it up. Skipping that step is one of the most common reasons floors fail within a few years of installation. It's not optional on our jobs.
Can you install flooring in a room with existing baseboards?
We typically remove baseboards before installation and reinstall them after the floor is done, with a new quarter-round or shoe molding to cover the expansion gap. If the existing baseboards are damaged during removal, we can replace them as part of the job. This is always cleaner than trying to slide new flooring under trim that's already painted and set.
Do you install flooring on stairs?
Yes. Stair installations require different material cuts, nosing profiles, and fastening methods than flat floor runs. It's a detail-heavy part of the job that not every crew does well. We handle stair treads, risers, and nosings as part of a full flooring project or as a standalone install. The result should match the adjacent floor material seamlessly.
