Aurora is home turf for us. We install luxury vinyl plank, laminate, tile, hardwood, and stair flooring, and we remodel bathrooms from the subfloor up.
Aurora is really two housing markets wearing one name, and the flooring conversation is completely different depending on which side of the city you are on. West of Chambers, in Del Mar Parkway, Hoffman Heights, and the older blocks off Colfax, you are mostly looking at compact 1950s and 1960s ranches on crawlspaces. These often have original hardwood, sometimes in good shape and sometimes chopped up by a past kitchen remodel. Subfloors squeak, and floors are rarely level end to end.
Village East and Hutchinson Hills fill in the 1970s and 1980s: split-levels and two-stories with a lot of short stair runs. Stairs are where these jobs get expensive if nobody plans for them, because every landing is a transition and the treads have to match the floor they connect to.
East of E-470, in Saddle Rock, Tallyn's Reach, and around Southlands, the homes are newer, bigger, and almost all slab-on-grade with builder-grade carpet upstairs and a small patch of engineered wood by the entry. The common request out there is a whole main floor in luxury vinyl plank, which is straightforward work as long as the slab is flat and dry. We test rather than assume.
Aurora also has a lot of rental and investment property, especially in the older western neighborhoods. Those jobs have different priorities than an owner-occupied remodel: durability, fast turnaround between tenants, and material that can be spot-repaired instead of replaced wholesale.
Water-resistant, wood-look flooring that holds up to pets, kids, basements, and Colorado's dry winters without the seasonal gapping you get with solid wood.
A cost-effective way to replace worn carpet across a whole floor, with modern styles and clean transitions between rooms.
Entryways, kitchens, laundry rooms, and bathrooms, set over a properly prepared substrate so the grout lines stay where they belong.
New hardwood installation, plus honest assessment of whether the original oak under your carpet is worth refinishing instead.
Treads, risers, and nosing that match the floor they connect to, which is the detail most people notice first and most installers rush.
Shower surrounds, shower pans, niches, tub areas, vanities, fixtures, and the finish trim that makes the room look finished.
PLACEHOLDER — Orlando: describe one real Aurora job. Neighborhood, what the home was like, what you installed, anything that made it tricky. Two or three sentences. This is the only thing on the page a competitor cannot copy.
Yes, and they are genuinely different jobs. An older ranch off Colfax needs subfloor assessment and often repair before anything new goes down. A newer home in Saddle Rock is usually about slab moisture and getting a large open floor plan laid out so seams and transitions land where they should.
PLACEHOLDER — Orlando: do you take rental turnover work, and how fast can you turn a unit around? This is a real search in west Aurora and worth answering honestly.
Not by itself. Squeaks come from the subfloor moving against the joists or the fasteners, and covering it up does not stop it. The fix happens when the carpet is off and the subfloor is exposed, which is the right time to screw it down properly. We build that into the estimate rather than discovering it on install day.
If the remodel changes plumbing, electrical, or structure, yes, through the City of Aurora. Swapping a vanity or retiling a floor in the same footprint generally does not. We will tell you which side of the line your project is on.
