        <title>Laminate Frequently Asked Questions</title>
        <link>http://oaklandwoodfloors.com/newsflash/laminate-frequently-asked-questions.html</link>
        <description>&lt;body&gt;
{tab=Frequently Asked Questions}&lt;br /&gt;
How long will the Laminate installation take? &amp;#8212; Lynn Johnston, Vet. | Berkeley, 
Ca. &lt;br /&gt;
The time it will take for the laminate installation depends on a few things: the 
square footage and the options that you choose. Yet, on average, we install over 
1000 square feet of pergo style flooring each day. 
&lt;p&gt;What do I have to do before the floor installation begins? &amp;#8212; T.J. Kwok| 
  Antioch, Ca. &lt;br /&gt;
  All you have to do is simply empty the installation area within time for the 
  installation, and make sure no new furniture is expected to arrive, and we will 
  handle all of the rest. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Is there a charge for removing or shifting furniture? &amp;#8212; Aims Family | 
  Emeryville, Ca. &lt;br /&gt;
  Yes there usually is a charge for this type of service, depending on the quantity 
  of items. However, if all you have is a mere few pieces of small furniture, 
  such as an office table or coffee table, recliner or chest, we will gladly move 
  them free of charge. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What is your lead time? &amp;#8212; Peter M., Accounts Manager| Alameda, Ca. &lt;br /&gt;
  We are typically able to service you within less than 7 days. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How can I best clean the floor? .&amp;#8221;&amp;#8212; Charlotte Scott, Secretary/Faculty 
  Member | San Leandro, Ca. &lt;br /&gt;
  Just sweep and mop with a damp cloth (a swiffer works best). No major chemicals 
  or detergents are necessary; the cleaning and preparation are as easy as it 
  gets. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Will I need to paint the free baseboards once they are installed? &amp;#8212; Jennifer 
  Acosta, Consultant| Castro Valley, Ca. &lt;br /&gt;
  It is preferred for you to paint the baseboards yourself or to have them done 
  by a skilled professional once they have been installed you can contact www.Moreincalifornia.com 
  they do a fabulous Job in Interior painting jobs in the Bay Area. The reason 
  we recommend this is because they are only painted with a white primer and deserve 
  a final coat of white paint to look their absolute best.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How many people usually do the laminate flooring installation? &amp;#8212; Kristin 
  Ainsworth, Small Business Owner| Oakland, Ca. &lt;br /&gt;
  Generally, there are three to six professionals (depends on the quantity of 
  work) working in each crew and at each house.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do you clean up after you are done? &amp;#8212; Amber and Hans| Pinole, Ca. &lt;br /&gt;
  As we said, as simple as it gets! Once we&amp;#8217;ve accomplished your project 
  we handle all of the clean up, including the first mop of your newly installed 
  floors, and make sure the final product is nothing less than stunning. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How do I schedule an installation and what is the process? &amp;#8212; Konstantin 
  | Fremont, Ca. &lt;br /&gt;
  All you have to do is fill out a &amp;#8216;Request Installation&amp;#8217; form, or 
  you can simply give us a call and we will inform you of possible dates. Next 
  we will visit your home, bringing to you available laminate samples so that 
  you can begin to select the most suitable color and decor immediately and appropriately, 
  in the presence of your furniture and home. &lt;/p&gt;

        <title>Carpet VS Laminate</title>
        <link>http://oaklandwoodfloors.com/newsflash/carpet-vs-laminate.html</link>
        <description>{tab=Carpet VS Laminate}&lt;br /&gt;{/tabs}
Some say carpeting is the classic, more prudent choice. But the facts prove otherwise. 
Well kept carpeting at its best only lasts between five and ten years given that 
it is exposed to normal, residential wear and tear. Conversely, laminate floors 
can endure high traffic use and still last up to over 30 years, with the chic 
coloring and printed surface still glowing. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;{/tabs}
&lt;span class=&quot;tip&quot;&gt;Our customers in Milpitas, Mountain View, and the greater Bay Area have given 
our laminate flooring services outstanding reviews, expressing that the carpet 
to laminate transformation was refreshing, effective and affordable if you are 
located in Oakland, Berkeley, San Leandro and any other bay area cities you looking 
to paid with our company about $3.29 sqft all included for laminate flooring call 
us today to set up your free consultation 866-670-1239. &lt;/span&gt;Read below for some of 
the reasons why: 
&lt;p&gt;{tab=30 Year Comparison}Here is a 30-year comparison test that you can reference when contemplating 
  whether to choose carpeting or laminate floor covering. Say, for instance, you 
  installed new laminate flooring. It would typically last for 30 years. During 
  that same time frame it is highly probable that you would have to install new 
  carpeting four or five different times! Given that probable circumstance, the 
  laminate flooring in fact costs much less than the amassed and increasing costs 
  of updating and installing an entire home of new carpet.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is why so many of our laminate flooring customers in Redwood City and 
  Belmont, for example, have testified to great satisfaction from their &amp;#8220;pergo 
  style&amp;#8221; laminate flooring, which lasts longer and stays cleaner over time. 
  &lt;br /&gt;
  &lt;br /&gt;
  An additional aspect one should pay careful attention to is the cleanliness 
  of your home environment. In a consumer survey, one well known American company 
  that administers the recycling of old carpet asserted that the majority of used 
  carpeting it collects for processing contains at least thirty five percent of 
  its weight in household dirt alone! This means that the families who lived in 
  a household of this old carpeting were actually walking, crawling, or living 
  on dirt. Laminate flooring is just cleaner&amp;#8212;hands down. If the laminate 
  is dirty the dirt is plainly visible to the eye, not hidden deep in carpet textures, 
  and can be wiped up reassuringly. Laminate flooring is the fresher, cleaner, 
  and undoubtedly more cost effective investment, perfect for any thriving home, 
  when compared to carpet THIS IS A FACT. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Many of our customers in Menlo Park and Millbrae have chosen our laminate flooring, 
  pergo style as the top alternative for flooring that will ensure better health 
  for their families and the overall environment of their homes.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Call us today to find out how simple it is for you to make the healthy, cost-effective 
  switch from carpet to laminate in your Bay Area location! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/body&gt;
