West Hempstead flooring company.

West Hempstead is post-war Nassau at its most typical — Capes, ranches and splits built largely between 1945 and 1965, most with a raised foundation on the main level and a slab or partial basement below. That construction produces the split recommendation we write most often here: refinish or install hardwood on the main level, and use waterproof LVP on the lower level and in any addition sitting on slab. A good share of West Hempstead homes still have their original oak under carpet from the 70s and 80s, and refinishing it is almost always better value than replacing it. Where boards are too thin or too damaged, engineered hardwood and premium laminate both install cleanly over the existing subfloor. Kitchens across town lean LVP and porcelain for the moisture tolerance. We measure the actual space, moisture-test the subfloor, and quote in writing within 48 hours.
