You wake up every morning to floors that still look stunning years after installation. No regrets about your investment, no second-guessing your choice. Just beautiful, durable flooring that adds value to your Bayport home and makes every room feel exactly right.
That’s what happens when you choose quality materials and expert installation. Your hardwood develops character over time instead of showing wear. Your luxury vinyl handles whatever your family throws at it. Your carpet stays comfortable and clean, even with pets and kids running around.
The difference isn’t just in how your floors look—it’s in how they perform day after day, season after season.

Our Southampton showroom displays the latest from trusted names like Shaw, Mohawk, and premium exclusive lines. But more importantly, our team understands Bayport homeowners—your lifestyle, your design preferences, and your need for floors that work as hard as you do.
Your flooring project starts with a free in-home consultation where we measure your space and discuss your needs, lifestyle, and design goals. No pressure, just honest guidance about what works best for your specific situation.
We bring samples to your home so you can see how different options look in your actual lighting throughout the day. Our design team helps narrow down choices that fit your budget and style, explaining the real-world differences between materials.
Once you’ve made your decision, our experienced installation team handles everything from furniture moving to final cleanup. We use dust-free sanding equipment for refinishing projects and guarantee our work with the Beautiful Guarantee—if you’re not completely satisfied, we’ll replace it free.

Bayport homes present unique challenges—from salt air affecting hardwood to the need for durable solutions in high-traffic areas. Hamptons Carpet One addresses these local considerations with appropriate material recommendations and proper installation techniques.
Our residential flooring services include hardwood installation and refinishing, luxury vinyl plank and tile, carpet installation with premium padding, ceramic and porcelain tile, and laminate flooring. We also handle specialty applications like waterproof flooring for basements and pet-friendly options with stain and odor resistance.
For Bayport’s mix of historic and newer homes, we offer custom solutions like wide-plank hardwood for traditional aesthetics and modern luxury vinyl that mimics natural materials but handles moisture better. Our refinishing services can restore original hardwood floors in older homes while our new installation transforms spaces with contemporary style and performance.
Bayport’s proximity to Great South Bay means higher humidity levels that can affect certain flooring materials. Luxury vinyl plank and tile perform exceptionally well here because they’re completely waterproof and won’t expand, contract, or warp with humidity changes.
For hardwood lovers, engineered hardwood offers better moisture stability than solid wood while still providing the authentic look and feel you want. Ceramic and porcelain tiles are also excellent choices, especially in bathrooms, kitchens, and entryways where moisture exposure is highest.
If you’re set on solid hardwood, proper acclimation and professional installation with appropriate moisture barriers make a significant difference in long-term performance.
Most residential flooring projects in Bayport take 1-3 days depending on the square footage and material type. Luxury vinyl plank installation typically completes in 1-2 days for an average home. Hardwood installation usually requires 2-3 days including acclimation time.
Carpet installation is often the fastest, usually completing in one day unless you’re doing multiple rooms with different materials. Tile projects take longer—typically 3-5 days including setting time for adhesive and grout.
Refinishing existing hardwood floors takes 3-4 days total: one day for sanding, one day for staining, and 1-2 days for protective finish coats to cure properly. Weather and humidity can extend drying times slightly, but our dust-free system minimizes disruption to your daily routine.
Hardwood flooring consistently adds the most value to Bayport homes, often returning 70-80% of the investment at resale. Wide-plank oak and maple are particularly popular with local buyers and complement both traditional and contemporary home styles in the area.
Luxury vinyl plank is gaining ground with buyers who appreciate the hardwood look combined with superior moisture resistance—important in a coastal community. High-quality ceramic tile in bathrooms and kitchens also adds significant value, especially when professionally installed.
The key is choosing materials that match your home’s style and price point. A modest ranch doesn’t need exotic hardwood species, but quality engineered hardwood or luxury vinyl will still boost appeal and value compared to worn carpet or outdated flooring.
In many cases, yes—but it depends on the current flooring condition and what you’re installing. Luxury vinyl plank and laminate can often go directly over existing vinyl, tile, or hardwood if the surface is level and structurally sound.
Carpet installation typically requires removing old flooring first to ensure proper padding and installation. Hardwood installation usually needs a clean subfloor, though engineered hardwood sometimes works over existing materials with proper preparation.
The most important factor is subfloor condition. Bayport’s older homes sometimes have settling or moisture issues that need addressing before new flooring installation. A professional assessment determines the best approach for your specific situation and ensures long-term performance.
Complete residential flooring installation includes material delivery, furniture moving (within the same room), old flooring removal when necessary, subfloor preparation, professional installation, and thorough cleanup. We also include appropriate underlayment for laminate and luxury vinyl installations.
For hardwood projects, installation includes acclimation time, moisture barrier installation when needed, and multiple finish coats with proper curing time between applications. Carpet installation includes premium padding, proper stretching, and trimming around all obstacles.
Our Beautiful Guarantee covers the entire installation—if you’re not completely satisfied with materials or workmanship, we’ll make it right at no additional cost. This includes addressing any installation issues that arise within the warranty period.
The decision often comes down to lifestyle, budget, and long-term plans. Hardwood offers authentic beauty, increases home value, and can be refinished multiple times over decades. It’s the premium choice that many Bayport homeowners prefer for main living areas.
Luxury vinyl provides the hardwood look with superior moisture resistance, lower maintenance, and typically costs 30-50% less installed. It’s ideal for families with pets, kids, or concerns about humidity from coastal weather.
Consider your home’s age and condition too. Older Bayport homes with potential moisture issues might benefit from luxury vinyl’s waterproof properties, while newer construction with proper climate control can handle hardwood beautifully. Your lifestyle and how long you plan to stay in the home should guide the final decision.
