What flooring installation in Downtown & Old Market actually involves
Downtown & Old Market is largely pre-1930, with later loft conversions. Expect warehouse lofts, mid-rise condos and a few surviving rowhouses. That housing stock is what decides how a flooring installation job gets scoped, quoted and done, and it is why a pro who works these blocks gives you a different answer than a call center does.
- There is frequently original hardwood under the carpet. Refinishing it usually costs less than new flooring and is worth more at resale. Subfloors in these houses are rarely flat, so budget for leveling.
- Most buildings have sound-transmission rules requiring a specified underlayment under hard surfaces, and approval before installation.
