Floors That Actually Increase Your Home's Value

You’re not just getting new floors. You’re making an investment that pays you back every single day and when it’s time to sell.

Real hardwood flooring can increase your home’s resale value by thousands while giving you decades of beauty that never goes out of style. Unlike carpet that needs replacing every few years or vinyl flooring that chips and fades, quality hardwood gets better with age.

When friends walk into your home, they notice. When buyers tour your property, they remember. That’s the difference between flooring that costs money and flooring that makes money.

Experienced Hardwood Flooring Contractors South Huntington

Three Decades of Getting It Right

Since the 1980s, we at Hamptons Carpet One have been the hardwood flooring company South Huntington homeowners trust when they want the job done right the first time. We’re not the new guys trying to figure it out as we go.

Our family-owned business has installed floors in everything from cozy cottages to luxury estates across Long Island. We’ve completed high-profile projects like Water Mill Crossing and the Huntington Inn. We’ve seen every type of subfloor, every challenging layout, every “impossible” situation.

What sets us apart isn’t just experience. It’s our Beautiful Guarantee. If you don’t love your floors, we’ll replace them for free. That’s how confident we are in our hardwood floor installation and refinishing work.

Our Hardwood Floor Installation Process

No Surprises, No Shortcuts, No Mess

We start with a proper consultation at your South Huntington home, not a rushed estimate over the phone. Our team measures precisely using professional iPad technology and shows you hardwood samples in your actual lighting so you can make the right choice.

Once you’re ready, we prepare your space properly. This means protecting your furniture and ensuring your subfloor is perfect before we install a single plank. Cutting corners on floor preparation ruins everything that comes after.

Installation happens with the care and precision that comes from decades of experience. We use state-of-the-art dustless sanding equipment for floor refinishing, so you’re not dealing with dust settling on everything you own for weeks afterward. When we’re done, we clean up completely and walk through everything with you to make sure it’s exactly what you expected.

Complete Hardwood Flooring Services South Huntington

Everything Your Floors Need Under One Roof

We handle new hardwood flooring installation, floor refinishing, hardwood floor repair, custom wood floor staining, floor sealing, and protective floor finishing. Whether you’re building new, renovating, or restoring what you have, we’ve got the right solution.

South Huntington homes face unique challenges with humidity changes and the wear that comes from Long Island’s coastal environment. We know exactly which wood species, floor finishes, and installation methods work best in our local climate. That knowledge comes from installing thousands of floors right here in Suffolk County.

Our dustless floor sanding process means you can actually stay in your home during refinishing projects. No more moving out for a week or covering everything in plastic. We also offer custom floor staining and floor coating services, so your new hardwood floors blend perfectly with existing woodwork or achieve the exact look you’re envisioning.

How long does hardwood floor installation take in my South Huntington home?

Most residential hardwood flooring installation projects take 2-4 days depending on the size of your space and whether we’re doing the entire house or just specific rooms. We’ll give you an exact timeline during your consultation. The process breaks down like this: Day one is usually subfloor preparation and starting installation. Days two and three are installation completion. If you’re getting custom floor staining, add one day for staining and another for the final protective finish to cure properly. We work efficiently but never rush. Taking shortcuts during hardwood floor installation creates problems that show up months or years later. Better to do it right once than to deal with squeaks, gaps, or premature wear because someone was in a hurry.

What's the difference between solid and engineered hardwood for Long Island homes?

Solid hardwood flooring is exactly what it sounds like – solid wood planks that can be sanded and refinished multiple times over decades. It’s the traditional choice and what most people think of when they picture hardwood floors. Engineered hardwood has a real wood top layer over a plywood base. It’s more stable in areas with humidity changes, which can be helpful in basements or areas where solid wood might expand and contract too much. The trade-off is you can only refinish it 1-2 times instead of 4-5 times with solid hardwood. For most South Huntington homes, solid hardwood flooring is the better long-term investment. Our climate isn’t as extreme as some areas, and solid wood gives you more floor refinishing options down the road. But we’ll assess your specific situation and recommend what makes sense for your space and budget.

How much does hardwood flooring cost in South Huntington, NY?

Hardwood flooring installation investment ranges from $6-12 per square foot for quality work, with premium woods and complex layouts running $13-25 per square foot. The wide range comes down to wood species, grade, finish complexity, and your home’s specific requirements. Here’s what affects your investment: Red oak costs less than exotic species like Brazilian cherry. Pre-finished floors install faster than custom-stained floors. Simple rectangular rooms cost less than rooms with lots of angles and transitions. Floor refinishing existing hardwood costs about $3-8 per square foot depending on their current condition. We provide detailed written estimates that break down exactly what you’re getting. No surprises, no hidden costs, no “extras” that suddenly appear. You’ll know your exact investment before we start, and that’s exactly what you’ll pay.

Can you refinish hardwood floors without creating a dust nightmare?

Yes, and this is one of our biggest advantages. We use state-of-the-art dustless floor sanding equipment with powerful cyclonic vacuum technology that captures 99% of dust during the floor refinishing process. Traditional sanding creates dust that settles everywhere in your home and takes weeks to fully clean up. Our dustless sanding system means no hanging plastic sheeting, no covering all your furniture, and no endless cleaning after we’re done. You can actually stay in your home during the project. The results are identical to traditional floor sanding – we’re removing the same amount of material and creating the same smooth surface for floor staining and finishing. The only difference is you’re not dealing with dust settling on everything you own. It’s a game-changer for homeowners who want beautiful refinished floors without the traditional mess.

Which hardwood species work best in South Huntington's climate?

Oak, maple, and hickory are excellent choices for our Long Island climate. They’re stable, durable, and handle our humidity changes well. Red oak is the most popular because it takes floor staining beautifully and has the classic grain pattern most people love. White oak is slightly harder and has a tighter grain, making it great for high-traffic areas. Maple is very hard and light-colored, perfect if you want a clean, contemporary look. Hickory is the hardest domestic wood – ideal if you have large dogs or very active kids. Exotic woods like Brazilian cherry or teak are beautiful but require more careful climate control. They’re worth considering if you love the look, but domestic species are generally more practical for most South Huntington homes. We’ll show you samples of different species in your actual lighting so you can see how they’ll really look in your space.

Do you offer warranties on hardwood flooring installation and refinishing?

Absolutely. We back our hardwood floor installation work with a comprehensive warranty, and we’re one of the few companies offering the Beautiful Guarantee – if you don’t love your floors, we’ll replace them for free. Our installation warranty covers workmanship issues like squeaks, gaps, or premature wear caused by improper installation. The hardwood flooring materials themselves come with manufacturer warranties that we’ll help you navigate if any issues arise. For floor refinishing work, we guarantee the finish will perform as expected with normal use and proper care. We also provide detailed care instructions so you know exactly how to maintain your floors for maximum longevity. With over 20 years serving South Huntington and Long Island, we’re not going anywhere – you can count on us to stand behind our work for years to come.
