Hamptons Carpet One has been transforming Long Island homes since 1988. We’re the locally owned flooring company Bohemia homeowners call when they want professional results without the typical contractor headaches.
Our team understands the unique challenges of Long Island homes – from humidity changes that cause wood movement to the specific subflooring conditions common in area homes. Every installation includes moisture barriers and proper acclimation because we know what works in this climate.
As part of the Carpet One cooperative, we combine local expertise with national buying power. That means premium materials at better prices, real warranties you can count on, and the Beautiful Guarantee that protects your investment completely.

Our dustless sanding and refinishing captures 99% of dust during the process. You won’t need to move out or deal with dust covering everything in your Bohemia home. This advanced equipment makes refinishing possible even in occupied homes with minimal disruption.
The process includes professional sanding to remove scratches and wear, custom stain application to achieve your desired color, and protective finish coats that resist water and daily wear. We can match existing stains or create completely new looks that complement your updated design.
Long Island’s humidity and seasonal changes demand proper technique. Our refinishing process accounts for wood movement and uses appropriate products for the local climate. The result is a beautiful, durable finish that protects your investment and enhances your home’s value for years to come.
Most residential hardwood flooring installations in Bohemia take 3-7 days, depending on the square footage and complexity of your project. Simple installations in standard rectangular rooms move faster, while homes with multiple angles, stairs, or custom borders require additional time.
The timeline includes subfloor preparation, moisture barrier installation, and proper wood acclimation – steps that are essential for Long Island’s humidity conditions but often skipped by less experienced contractors. We schedule projects to finish on time while never rushing the critical details that ensure your floors perform properly for decades.
If you’re combining installation with refinishing existing areas, add 2-3 additional days for the dustless sanding and finishing process. We coordinate all work to minimize disruption and complete your entire flooring project efficiently.
Solid hardwood typically costs $8-12 per square foot installed in Bohemia, while engineered hardwood ranges from $6-10 per square foot. The price difference reflects the manufacturing process and long-term value each option provides.
Solid hardwood can be refinished multiple times over its lifespan, making it more cost-effective long-term despite higher upfront costs. Engineered hardwood offers better moisture stability for Long Island’s climate and can be installed in basements or over concrete slabs where solid wood isn’t suitable.
Your specific costs depend on wood species, plank width, and installation complexity. We provide detailed estimates that break down material and labor costs so you understand exactly what you’re paying for. No surprises when the final invoice arrives.
Yes, but it requires engineered hardwood and proper moisture management. Concrete slabs in Long Island basements often have moisture issues that can damage solid hardwood, making engineered products the better choice for below-grade installations.
The installation process includes moisture testing, vapor barrier application, and appropriate underlayment systems. We use floating installation methods that allow the engineered planks to expand and contract naturally with seasonal humidity changes common in this area.
Before recommending basement hardwood installation, we assess your specific moisture conditions and drainage. Some Bohemia basements need additional moisture control measures before any wood flooring installation. We’ll provide honest recommendations about whether hardwood is suitable for your specific basement conditions.
Minor surface scratches can often be repaired with spot sanding and touch-up finishing that blends seamlessly with surrounding areas. Deeper scratches or gouges may require individual plank replacement, which we can do without disturbing the entire floor.
For extensive scratch damage, dustless refinishing provides the most cost-effective solution. The process removes all surface damage and applies fresh stain and protective finish coats. This approach works well when multiple areas show wear or when you want to update the color throughout your home.
We stock common hardwood species and can match existing floors for repair work. When matching isn’t possible due to age or discontinued products, we can blend different wood tones to create intentional design elements that enhance rather than detract from your floor’s appearance.
Oak, maple, and hickory perform exceptionally well in Long Island’s variable humidity conditions. These species have moderate expansion and contraction rates, making them stable choices for homes that experience seasonal humidity swings from dry winter heating to humid summer conditions.
Exotic hardwoods like Brazilian cherry or teak can be more challenging in this climate due to their higher movement rates. While beautiful, these species require more careful installation and may develop larger seasonal gaps between planks.
Proper installation technique matters more than species selection. We include moisture barriers, allow appropriate acclimation time, and use installation methods that accommodate natural wood movement. With correct installation, most hardwood species perform well in Bohemia’s climate conditions.
Yes, we offer flexible financing options that make quality hardwood flooring accessible without compromising your budget. Financing terms vary based on project size and creditworthiness, with options for both short-term and extended payment plans.
Many Bohemia homeowners use financing to upgrade to wider planks or premium species that might otherwise stretch their budget. The monthly payment approach allows you to enjoy your new floors immediately while spreading costs over time.
We handle all financing applications in-house and can often provide approval decisions during your initial consultation. This streamlines the process and lets you move forward with your flooring project without delays. All financing terms are clearly explained upfront with no hidden fees or surprise charges.
